About Me

I'm a thirtysomething, Glasgow based drama queen! By day I'm an administrator, by night an aspiring theatre actress. I have played such varied characters as Electra, Bertha (Jane Eyre), Medea and Goneril from King Lear. My favourite role yet has been Rose in 'The Tender Mercies'. Fantastic play! Most challenging role was Nelly in 'Tales from Hollywood'. Dream roles are Tamora in Titus Andronicus and Mae from 'Fool for Love'. I am also an ageing goth/metal fan who still frequents the Solid Rock Cafe. I ONLY ACCEPT FRIENDS REQUESTS FROM PEOPLE I KNOW. CHEERS!

Quel hÃ©ros de film es-tu ?

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet Russell Crowe. He is my favourite actor and would like to discuss how he prepares for a role. However, I would love to watch him on stage. Nothing beats the intensity of theatre and I think it would be an inspiring experience for me. I would also loved to have had a conversation with my absolute idol Frank Sinatra. What a legend! He was the consummate performer. A true star! It would be amazing to talk to him about Ava Gardner, the love of his life and passion behind some of his greatest songs. She must have been on his mind when he sang 'I'm a fool to want you'. For me, his greatest vocal performance.
