About me
Trained in New York with Mike Nichols. Highlights so far: title role in Shirley Valentine; Queen Margaret in Richard III. I'm super flexible and love character work. Studied Shakespeare with Patsy Rodenburg, from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, and with Kevin Kline in the US, where I gained a distinction in name-dropping. After acting in New York 3 years I returned to the UK 2010. So far, I like stage best; I also enjoy film and TV; and would like to do more TV. Experienced & reliable in corporate work. Before acting, I was a journalist, latterly for the Financial Times newspaper in London and New York. I have bases in Liverpool and London.Additional skills:
I can learn scripts very fast. I'm versatile and great at ageing up or down (I recently played an 85-year-old in a stage farce). Great team player and an asset to any cast. My comedic timing is second to none. I am fearless and determined in trying to find whatever works for a character.
Additional information:
Intelligent actor and can tackle any kind of role. I much enjoy the classics and comedy as well as non-comedic drama. Mike Nichols said the scene in which I played Mrs Robinson from The Graduate was "in some ways better than my movie". I am experienced in contemporary drama as well as the classics. Especially excited by Shakespeare, improv, physical theatre, any emotionally demanding role, and anything by Willy Russell.
