Moments with Mary Poppins
- Useful Info
I’ve been a professional actress for 32 years, but my parents will tell you
that I was a little Sarah Bernhardt from a very early age.
Since training at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, I’ve had some wonderful experiences. My early career was full of Shakespeare…. in schools, castles, on radio 4, the Bristol Old Vic and in a pub theatre with director Andrew Hilton
(of Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory) . All that was a three year training in itself.
Other highlights include working at the National Theatre on two of Tennessee Williams unperformed plays…a real thrill to see his handwriting on the copies of his original manuscripts. I loved doing Sonnet Walks for Shakespeare’s Globe, using my voice for Manga cartoons and talking book versions of some Horrible Histories, having a one woman show written for me, working at Britain’s longest running weekly Rep and making my feature film debut alongside my 5 year old son.
