Mimi Nation-Dixon is a multi-talented writer and actor, with a rich background in both comedy and theatre. Trained by the National Youth Theatre, she honed her craft in writing and performance, developing a unique voice that bridges the worlds of subtle observational humour and impactful storytelling. 

Mimi graduated with first-class honours in Theology from Durham University, where her dissertation on the power of sitcoms earned a remarkable 85% and was published by the University, cementing her intellectual approach to comedy, and above all, her passion for story-telling.

During her time at university, Mimi wrote a variety of comedy sketches, plays, and short films, while also acting in professional settings - each experience contributing to her versatile skill set.

Mimi’s most significant achievement to date is the creation of Sit or Kneel, a one-woman play that debuted at the Edinburgh Fringe. The play received critical acclaim for its wit, heart, and authentic portrayal of quirky characters, inspired by the rural community where Mimi grew up. This success led to the development of a TV pilot script, transforming the play into a series, with Mimi’s ambition to bring together a diverse, compelling cast rooted in the everyday humour of rural life.

In addition to Sit or Kneel, Mimi is developing a comedy short titled I'm Just a Temp, set for release in 2025. 

Whether it’s through the lens of quirky characters or the humour of everyday life, Mimi’s work is grounded in her belief that the most universal and resonant humour often lies in the small moments and subtleties we encounter daily.

Constantly writing, observing, and creating, Mimi finds inspiration in the world around her, believing that the humour that unites us all can be found in the most unexpected places, especially during rush hour on the tube.

With her diverse body of work and keen eye for the nuances of human behaviour, Mimi Nation-Dixon is a rising and exciting voice in the world of comedy and television, who is set to take the industry by storm.
