Education

About me

I am a professional Scottish actor based in St. Andrews Scotland, with bases in London, and also professionally trained in English RP and Standard American accent. I am also a black belt in Karate and Kickboxing, with fight and weapons experience on screen.
I also sing and dance, both examples of which will appear in two of the feature films that are awaiting final edit. I continue to work with a vocal/singing coach. I also speak conversational French and Italian.

Current screen work:
An action thriller feature, a short drama, and the surrealist, art house film, "Strawberry Milkshake", all acting as the lead female role, in female led productions. I am also appearing in a guest role in the second series of comedy TV show, “Hapless” for Netflix alongside Tim Downie, which wrapped filming (March 2022) and should be released later this year.
Our short film "Sloansy" has been selected for the Lift-Off Showcase and will be screening at Pinewood Studios, alongside several other film festival official selections.
I am also co-producing and acting in the high impact Scottish social drama feature film “Dark Devices”, which is moving into post-production stages.

Currently in pre-production is the horror “Fork” alongside the stellar cast including Tim Curry, Anthony Head, John Rhys-Davies and David Shneider. With other exciting projects also in pre-production, for example the action fantasy thriller “Cult of Elves”, where I am playing the lead antagonist 'Völva'.

I gained, in May 2022, an Official Selection and an Honourable Mention Award from the GAW & DP Film Festival for my short film "Mary Go Round", which I co-wrote, directed and produced.

Current stage work:
"20 Minutes of Action" (EdFringe 3-29 Aug 22 Pleasance Theatre)
-Theatre Scotland 4.5⭐️ "Emma Lindsay gives a strong performance in the role of reporter. Cold but grounded Lindsay’s performance encapsulates the legal system and projects the outdated views on Women’s safety by shifting blame onto the survivor. Not an easy character to portray, however Lindsay does so with ease."
