Angel Theory is an American actress, known for playing Kelly on the series The Walking Dead. She is also a dancer and choreographer.
Life and career
Theory was born in Far Rockaway, Queens, New York.[1] Her mother is Anna Simpson. Theory trained as a dancer in multiple styles of dance at the Broadway Dance Center, EXPG studios and Peridance Studios.[1] She performed in the music videos for Wish You Were Mine by Phillip George and Stranger To Love by Charles Perry.[1]
After a car crash, she began experiencing hearing loss at age 14.[2] Her hearing loss progressively worsened as she got older.[2] Theory told Insider, "I remember how depressed, devastated, and angry I got with myself after my hearing loss. My mom told me, 'It's not a disability, it's your damn superpower.'"[3]
For the television series The Walking Dead, she applied for the role of Connie.[3] Showrunner Angela Kang told Insider they were "so compelled by Angel," she was cast as Connie's sister, Kelly.[3] Kang also told Insider that with Theory's agreement, her progressive hearing loss has been incorporated into the plot of The Walking Dead, including the line of encouragement from her mother.[3] Theory has also been teaching American Sign Language (ASL) to the cast of The Walking Dead.[3]
Theory also stars as Olivia, a hard of hearing/deaf teacher, in the series Kinderfanger,[4] and is an executive producer.[5] In her role as co-executive producer, Theory has been able to advise the show creators about realistic representation of Hard of Hearing or Deaf people.[6]
