1. What do you think is the most fabulous thing about being an actor? It helps me to build up my confidence. It gives me a way to express myself and it is joyful and fun. It really makes me happy when I see people enjoying the plays.
2. If you could give an aspiring actor one piece of advice, what would it be? Don’t be shy. Overcome the fear you may have of being in the spotlight, be confident and think positive. Tell yourself: You Can Do This.
3. 40 years is a big milestone during which we look back but also look ahead! What are your hopes or ambitions for the future? I would like to see Lung Ha continue to thrive, as it is a great company that gives people with learning difficulties the chance to learn to act and build their self worth. I would love to be able to go on tour and then I could see more of the world outside Edinburgh, while doing something I love at the same time.
