In 2014, Lexi set up her own company, Wild Wolfe Productions, debuting with a one-woman show that she wrote and produced. She has received numerous awards and nominations for her acting, including the Commendation for Julian Battersby Young Playwright’s Award in 2014 for her one-act play “Indiscretion,” a nomination for Best Supporting Actress at the Short Film Awards in New York City in 2015, and a Gold Award for Best Leading Actress at the International Independent Film Awards.

Learning to Talk: Directed by Lexi Wolfe. With Andy Wolf, Lexi Wolfe, Nina Flitman, Zoey Henderson. Charlie, a London office-worker has been seeing a counsellor for over a year, without much change. A chance and clumsy meeting with a young girl in his favourite cafe, however, starts him doing the one thing he’s been finding so difficult all this time – talking.
In addition to her acting career, Lexi is also an avid writer and has published several works, including “Better Off Dead: The Story of Rosa, the Fledgling Vampire” and “Women Of Forgotten Importance: Three Stories.” Lexi is a fan of vampires and has a personal interest in the works of Oscar Wilde. She was nominated Best Female Actor at the Buxton Fringe with her debut performance of ‘Mrs. Oscar Wilde’, which she wrote to commemorate the famous writer’s wife.
”It was quite a culture shock to come back after a childhood of living in a place that is effectively a completely different world to the one we live in in the West. I think I came back to England and was instantly thought to be bonkers, and have remained so ever since. But that thought comforts me. At least I have some consistency in my life.”
”I’m a bit of a workaholic and I’m fiercely protective of what I do, where I stand as an actor. If someone were to call my professionalism into question, I’d go all Wolverine on them – the sword-claws would come out!”
”Watching Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes was what really changed my life. Before that, I thought of a job as something grown-ups did and didn’t like. But JB was enjoying himself, having a whale of a time with what he did…and I wanted that to be my life. I wanted that to be what I did.”
