The six-part series is currently filming in Margate and is based on Sharon Horgan’s BAFTA-winning short of the same name.
Allen is not new to acting, having played the lead role of Jenny in the West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story. She has also made an appearance in two films, but Dreamland is her first major role in a television production. The series is based on the lives of four sisters and their dysfunctional family dynamics.
“Set in the sun-drenched British seaside town of Margate, it is a dark comedic exploration of multi-generational female relationships, and their (somewhat dysfunctional) family dynamics,” reads the logline.
