Acting
Pengilly began studying acting in her spare time,[1] and attended classes at National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) and Actors Centre Australia.

April starred in the independent short film Object in 2013, which screened at the Cannes Film Festival.[7] The following year, Pengilly competed in the 14th Season of Dancing with the Stars. She was partnered with Russian dancer Aric Yegudkin and danced for Dementia Australia.[8] Pengilly and Yegudkin were eliminated in week three despite a score of 29 out of 40.
