Elizabeth Whitlock (1761 - February 27, 1836) was a British actress.
A member of the Kemble family of actors, she made her first appearance on the stage in 1783 at Drury Lane as Portia. In 1785 she married Charles E. Whitlock, went with him to America and played with much success there. She had the honor of appearing before President George Washington. She seems to have retired about 1807. Her reputation as a tragic actress might have been greater had she not been eclipsed by the career of her sister, Sarah Siddons.
