Early life
Flood was born on Phillip Island. For six years she attended a school in Dubai. After moving to Melbourne when she was 12 years old, she began attending Methodist Ladies' College.[1] Flood knew that she wanted to act from an early age. After signing with a talent agency, she appeared in various advertisements.[1] She then studied at the L'École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq and the 16th Street Actors Studio.[2]
Career
Flood made her stage debut in a production of Blackbird at the Melbourne Theatre Company. She starred in a short film called Hugo, before she was cast in a guest role in police procedural City Homicide.[3] Flood appeared in the Showcase drama Tangle as Charlotte Barker from 2009 until the show's third and final season.[4] In 2011, Flood appeared as Belle in David Williamson's Don Parties On, a sequel to his 1971 play Don's Party.[5]
The following year, Flood joined the cast of House Husbands in the recurring role of Phoebe Crabb.[6][7] Flood and co-star Anna McGahan did not return for the fourth season.[8] During 2013, Flood successfully auditioned for the role of Debbie Smith in Wentworth, a reimagining of the Prisoner.[9] While reviewing the series, Brad Newsome of The Sydney Morning Herald commented, "Flood is always a delight to watch."[10] In the same year, Flood was named as a runner-up for the Heath Ledger Scholarship Award, presented by Australians in Film.[11]
2014 saw Flood star as Alice Ross-King in the miniseries ANZAC Girls. At her audition, she was told that she was too young for the part, but she fought for the role.[1] Flood used a copy of Ross-King's diary to help her with the part. She explained, "I carried that diary with me everywhere, and if I was having some trouble in a scene, I'd go back to the diary and there would be a direct paragraph to answer my question."[12] For her portrayal of Ross-King, Flood was nominated for the Golden Nymph Award for Best Actress in a Miniseries.[13]
In 2015, Flood starred in Christine Roger's first feature film I Am Evangeline as lead character Evangeline, a clone who wants to find a cure for her sleeping sickness.[14] Flood has also joined the cast of Home and Away,[15] and she appears in the comedy series Here Come the Habibs.[16]
