Some Lesser Known Facts About Erin Doherty
Erin Doherty grew up in Crawley, England.
She was just four when her parents divorced.
Erin’s paternal grandfather belonged to Carndonagh, a small town in County Donegal, Ireland.
Growing up, Erin struggled to understand her grandfather’s strong Donegal accent, but it made her curious about how voices and accents influence the way people relate and connect with others.
Erin was very young when she began attending Sunday drama classes with her older sister Grace Joséphine Doherty. Although she was shy at first, she soon found that acting helped her feel free and let go of her anxiety.
Doherty once watched ‘Earthquakes in London’ at the National Theatre in London which inspired her so deeply to pursue acting that she later joined the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.
During her time at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, Erin won The Stephen Sondheim Society’s Student Performer of the Year (2015) award for her performance of two songs. She also received a £1,000 prize.
Doherty has worked in various theatre productions including ‘A Christmas Carol’ (2017) at The Old Vic, ‘Wolfie’ (2019) at Theatre503, ‘The Crucible’ (2022) at the Royal National Theatre, and ‘Unicorn’ (2025) at the Garrick Theatre.
