Allison Tolman
- Actress
- Costume and Wardrobe Department
Born in Sugar Land, Texas, Allison Tolman earned a BFA in theatrical
performance from Baylor University. After graduation, she moved to
Dallas where she helped found and foster the independent ensemble based
non-profit Second Thought Theatre while also learning that the whole
being an adult thing is like, super hard. In 2009, she was accepted
into Second City's Conservatory Training Program and later went on to
write and perform sketch and satire with several groups throughout
Chicago, most notably the monthly comedy podcast The City Life
Supplement.
Throughout her career, Tolman has played a veterinary receptionist, personal assistant, children's theatre teacher, vocal coach, phone sales associate, client services representative, and dog walker - never on film, but in her actual life in order to pay her rent and be able to afford more tank tops from Target than any human actually needs.
(2014) Tolman lives in Chicago with a portly cat named Annie who enjoys staring at her blankly whenever there is a house centipede in the kitchen.
