She is good friends with Caitlin Stasey, Eliza Taylor-Cotter, and Sianoa Smit-McPhee, who were also on Neighbours.
She became the third actress to play Lolly Allen in the Network Ten soap opera Neighbours, having won the role through a series of auditions promoted as a competition in Dolly Magazine. [1] She appeared in the October 2006 issue of Dolly alongside fellow winner Sam Clark (Ringo).
The character of Lolly was born in 1994, meaning Kane was nearly four years older than Lolly should have been on her return, but Neighbours, like many other soap operas, adopts a flexible approach to characters' ages. She first appeared on-screen on 25 January 2007.
Kane, at age 16, left her year 11 class at St Hilda's Anglican School for Girls in the Perth suburb of Mosman Park to move to Melbourne where Neighbours is produced. When Kane's initial three-month contract expired, the Neighbours producers renewed her contract for a further 3 months, but she then left the show.
Kane's favourite character on Neighbours was Harold Bishop (portrayed by Ian Smith).
From March to December 2009, Kane portrayed the character of Tenaya 7/15 on Power Rangers RPM, part of the long-running Power Rangers franchise. The series was shot over a six-month period in Auckland, New Zealand.
On 16 April 2010, Kane starred in Secrets of the Mountain, on NBC. A TV family movie, Secrets of the Mountain was shot in Canada, and was co-funded by Wal-Mart and Procter & Gamble. [2]
Also in 2010, Kane has a starring role in the Vuguru production Pretty Tough, a 20-episode web series based on the novel of the same name by Liz Tigelaar.
