About me

I'm a RADA-trained, British born, half Roma actor with nine years experience working across theatre and film in lead and supporting roles. I’m excited by the endless possibilities for theatre and film to provoke and to hold up an unforgiving mirror to society; to make us think, reflect, feel and change. I am the artistic director of Oxia Theatre (www.oxiatheatre.com). We make gritty, raw work that combines text and physicality to ask questions at the more uncomfortable edges of the human experience. I am particularly passionate about theatre and film projects that discuss the human condition, that engage audiences in vital issues and shine a light on things that need exploding and discussing. I like genuine thought provoking art in all its forms. I enjoy working across the industry. You can read more about me on my website, www.emmawilkinsonwright.com.
Acting experience: Nine years working across theatre, film, VO and commercials in lead and supporting roles.
Additional skills: Physical theatre (laban, Grotowski, Meyerhold); piano (intermediate); fluent French and Spanish speaker with intermediate Italian.
Additional information: I've trained at RADA and also at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. I've attended RSC Globe studio workshops (Hamlet, with Philip Bird) and Macbeth with Chris Nayak). I've attended intensive Demidov training.
