# Allegra Fulton

Allegra Fulton is a Canadian actress, best known for Frida K, a one-woman stage show in which she portrayed artist Frida Kahlo.
The daughter of filmmaker David Fulton and writer Gloria Montero, she began her acting career in childhood with an appearance on the children's television series Butternut Square. In the early 1980s she regularly performed in stage roles in Toronto, including productions of Slow Dance on the Killing Ground, Michi's Blood, and South of Heaven.
In 1991 she received a Dora Mavor Moore Award nomination for Outstanding Performance, Small Theatre for her performance in Nocturnal Emissions at Buddies in Bad Times.
In the 1990s she began appearing in film and television roles, most notably the Genie Award-winning short film The Hangman's Bride opposite Shawn Doyle, whom she subsequently married.
Frida K, written by Montero, was first staged at the 1994 Toronto Fringe Festival, before being remounted by Tarragon Theatre in 1995. In 1996 she won the Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female in a Play, Small Theatre, before taking the play on an extended national and international tour. She returned to Toronto in 1998 in the English-language premiere of Michel Tremblay's Marcel Pursued by the Hounds for Tarragon.
She has continued to act in stage, film, television and animated voice roles. She received a Gemini Award nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Guest Role Dramatic Series at the 16th Gemini Awards in 2001 for a guest appearance on Blue Murder, and received her third Dora nomination in 2020 for Between Riverside and Crazy.
