Wendy van der Plank is a British actress best known for playing "Wizadora" in the ITV TV Series of the same name.

Born on August 7 1979 in Hampton near Leeds, Yorkshire, her first television appearance was in the BBC comedy series Spin off. After appearing in one episode of Casualty, she played the role of "Hilly" in the ITV drama Forever Green before being cast as "Wizadora".

In addition she also appeared as "Sharon" in the radio sitcom All That Jazz [cite web|url=http://www.jokingapart.co.uk/allthatjazz/cast.htm|title=Joking Apart - All That Jazz Cast List] , in which the creator commented that he was "...knocked out by Wendy van der Plank", and that "She’d never done any radio before and was largely unknown, but she came close to stealing the show. She really threw herself into it and I thought she was hilarious...She was just great!" [cite web|url=http://www.jokingapart.co.uk/allthatjazz/interview.htm|title=Joking Apart - Craig Robins talks about his radio sitcom "All That Jazz"] .

She has also appeared in various theatrical shows, including The King and I in 1987, [cite web|url=http://www.queens-theatre.co.uk/archive/thekingandi1987.htm|title=Queen's Theatre - Archive: The King and I (1987)] and Quasimodo the Hunchback of Notre Dame in 1988, [cite web|url=http://www.queens-theatre.co.uk/archive/quasimodo1988.htm|title=Queen's Theatre - Archive: Quasimodo the Hunchback of Notre Dame (1988)] both at the Queen's Theatre in Hornchurch.
