So I usually start just by saying you're 34 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: interested in something. When did you first go, ah, this 35 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: is what I wanted to do, be an actress, this 36 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: is what I this is my calling, this is my thing? 37 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: Or was it that clear? 38 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: This is not my own memory, but my mother loves 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: to tell the story when she was super super pregnant 40 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: with me. 41 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: She went she was super touo per pregnant, just pregnant, not. 42 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: Just pregnant, but bursting at the same se. Okay, she 43 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: went to see a production of Once on This Island 44 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: and she said, I was kicking so hard the whole time, 45 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: I am convinced I was doing the choreography with them 46 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: in the womb. Then goes on to say I came 47 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: out of the womb kicking and screaming and singing. So 48 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: it was kind of decided before I even knew anything, 49 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: that I was going to be an entertainer of some kind. 50 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: That's that's that's cool.

Is the show that you shoot? 56 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: I mean, industry is based. You shoot in London, yes, 57 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 2: and you live in New York. I do and recently married. Congratulations, 58 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: which is so cool. So you have a whole thing. 59 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 2: Explain to me how you've set up the dynamic of 60 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: travel and getting back and shooting and how does that 61 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: work for the show. 62 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we shoot usually about six months in Cardiff, Wales. 63 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 2: Oh my god, Okay, it got worse. Are you familiar 64 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: you must well no, I mean I've I've worked in London, 65 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: you know, so, and London is a great city to 66 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 2: work in and you know, you got access to everything. 67 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: But I've been to Wales. I shot an old votaphone 68 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 2: commercial in Wales, oh my, oh yes, goodness, in near 69 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 2: some community that I can't pronounce the name because they're 70 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: about fourteen consonants in two vowels. Absolutely, but I've never 71 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 2: been to Cardiff, which I imagine is beautiful. 72 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, all of Wales is gorgeous. Yeah, it's a very 73 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: outdoorsy kind of place, rolling hills and sheep and beaches 74 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: and outdoors, like outdoors, there's a lot of that. 75 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 76 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: And Cardiff, I think is there like major cities, So 77 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: there's quite a bit in Cardiff. A lot of people 78 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: come to Cardiff, like on the weekends and they go 79 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: out to dinner, and they go to the bar, and 80 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: they have rugby and there's some place where you see 81 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: US shows. I'm not sure. It was like a place 82 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: where people can go and entertain themselves. And there's castles, 83 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: lots of castles. So we've got like six months there 84 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: and then when I'm not working, I'm based in New York, 85 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: but I do travel quite a bit around Europe for 86 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: work and other things around the show, in fashion and 87 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: some other things. So I do spend most of my 88 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: time East. So my mom, I'm an only child. It's 89 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: just her and me and our dream, our plan, because 90 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: I told her from kicking in the womb that I 91 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: was going to move to New York and go be 92 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: on Broadway and being a star. And so our plan 93 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: was always, when the time comes, she'll move to New 94 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: York and we'll get a two family home like a Brownstone, 95 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: and we'll live together, and that's our dream. And we 96 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: got impatient, so she got an apartment. But the dream 97 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: is still very much alive and that's our goal. And 98 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: one day, when I start a family of my own, 99 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 1: then we'll all be there together. And it's nice because 100 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: it's harder to get from Europe to California, and when 101 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: I don't have so much time, it's nice. Or then 102 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: we get to spend so much time together now in 103 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: New York. That's good, which I'm so grateful for. 104 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 2: That is really really nice. You're obviously very close to 105 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 2: your mom, super duper cool. It's a beautiful thing. Yeah, 106 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: having the idea family and being able to be together 107 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: and even thinking ahead of saying we're all going to 108 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 2: be keep this unit together is really important. 109 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: Time is so limited in this this business that we're in. 110 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: We travel so much and we work a lot. Even 111 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: when we're not working, you know what I mean, So 112 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 1: any available time that I have, I want to spend 113 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: it with her. 114 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: I love that there's a sense of you have a 115 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: sense of grounding. I know when I was a kid 116 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: growing up, just starting to work, I was like, we 117 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 2: you know, you have no sense, just like you're off 118 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: in Mexico for seven months, let's go have fun. And 119 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 2: they're like, oh, there's a home. Oh yeah, I guess 120 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: I should go back there. But I don't know. I guess. 121 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: I was more like I made my home wherever I 122 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: ended up, right, But I didn't have such a strong 123 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: connection as you as you do with your mom, you 124 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: know what I mean, So you have like an anchor. 125 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: I was definitely still like we.

She does 128 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: that for me. I love to be home. I love 129 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: to make home. That's where I recharge. My little apartment 130 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: is my sanctuary. So it's nice that she can be 131 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: around and be involved in that sanctuary. 132 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a sense of comfort.

Yeah. 141 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 2: So I started singing when I was about sixteen. I 142 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 2: took piano lessons. I was a complete nerd, you know, 143 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: the high school nerds. I took piano lessons, then I 144 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: took voice lessons. Then I went to college studied opera, 145 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 2: which was crazy. 146 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: Wait, God, if you don't sing for me, I will. 147 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 2: No, no, no, there'll be no singing, there will be 148 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 2: no nose or will there. But I was on this 149 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: track right and even though I was in acting school, 150 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: I would you know, music was a big part of 151 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 2: it for me, you know.

There was never 156 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: like a plan B. There was no like, oh, you're 157 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: going to do theater or you're going to be an actor. 158 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: You're going to go do Broadway. But if that doesn't work, 159 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,559 Speaker 1: then what that? I never heard that at home. 160 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: Amazing. 161 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: My mom understood that this is what I wanted. She said, cool, 162 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: we'll go get it. You know how to go get it. 163 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: Let's take all the steps, let's do all the things. 164 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: So if I was ever going to go to college, 165 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: it was only going to be for musical theater because 166 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: I can't do math. 167 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: So you should sound like you can't on the show. 168 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: But when we talk about that later. 169 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I auditioned to I think ten or twelve 170 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: schools and I got into a handful of them. When 171 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: I finally got into Cardegia Mail and that was my 172 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: last yes, and I was thrilled and I loved the 173 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: campus and the thing that I and my mom appreciated 174 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: the most about Carnegamilon's program is their musical theater. But 175 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: there the act The musical theater program is the same 176 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: in terms of like what acting classes as the acting program, 177 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: so they really focus on being an actor first, being 178 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: a storyteller first, so that there's longevity in your career, 179 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: because if I can't dance anymore, I can still be 180 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: an actor. I can still you know. So my training 181 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: was really transferable to film and TV, even though at 182 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: the time it was not on my radar at all, 183 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: not even in the slightest I said, I'm going to 184 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: go be on Broadway. I'm going to be in Legally 185 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: Blonde to the musical the Reprise, I'm going to do that. Yeah, 186 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: But I loved school. It was really it was really 187 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: hard and confusing. It was like quintessential drama program. Oh 188 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: so much drama, so much discovering yourself. And I was 189 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: with the same twenty. 190 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: Six kids twenty six we had thirteen thirty. Okay, well 191 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: twenty six, same twenty six. You can sort of you know, 192 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 2: there's more variety. Yeah, thirteen. Everyone is pretty much with everybody. 193 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah at the end of the three years, so 194 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 2: you know, you're like, okay. 195 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: Well we were six, we were thirteen in the musical 196 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: theater program, I'm including the actors and being generous, so 197 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: we really are exactly the same. You have slept with everyone, 198 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: everyone's dirty Skottle secrets, all the things. It's a gross, 199 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:19,599 Speaker 1: little Petri dish of slop, but it was magic. I 200 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: mean I learned so many things. And when I graduated, 201 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: I moved with two of my best friends, one girlfriend 202 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: my program and another one who was just a hanger 203 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: ond she just loved us. And we moved into this 204 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: to an apartment in a building with like five of 205 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: our other classmates. So we essentially just like moved our 206 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: program to New York, which made the transition a lot easier, 207 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: I imagine. Yeah. 208 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have people everyone's going through the same kind 209 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: of thing trying to figure it out. 210 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: We weren't trying. I mean I certainly wasn't imagining a 211 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: life of like riches and fame. I was going to 212 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: go be poor and on the stage. Yeah yeah, yeah, 213 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: and I was gonna love it. That was my life. 214 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: You know, you're passionate about it exactly, Passionate about story telling, 215 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: passionate about like being in a room with an audience. 216 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: I love that your mom was like, yes, go for it. 217 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: Well, my mom is mom was a hairdresser. You know, 218 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: she's a creative as well. She's a crunchy granola like, 219 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 1: you know, a hippie mom from California. So she was like, 220 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: go live your dreams whatever that means. However that means, 221 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: that's awesome. 222 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: It's so interesting that she's like that. And yet the 223 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: first role that you found was like this really hard 224 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: drive in an intellectual Your progression through the seasons is 225 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: really a testament to your acting, which is amazing. And 226 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: as you change and as you modify her physically, and 227 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 2: also I've got to say for the creators, they're impressive, Yes, 228 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: very really impressive. And I was watching a little in 229 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 2: of you saying, you know, they sort of said we 230 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: kind of learned as we were doing it as well, 231 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: but continue to grow, you know, which I think is 232 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 2: the hallmark of a successful show. It has to continue 233 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 2: to evolve and grow, and the characters have to become 234 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: you know, they have to continue to you know, expand 235 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: you know in a way that you buy. You know, 236 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: sometimes it can be I don't think the character is 237 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 2: going to would do that or go in that direction 238 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: necessarily based upon kind of the structure of how we started. 239 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 2: But you bring such honesty to it, which is it's amazing. 240 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 2: You know when you say that you don't do math, 241 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 2: I'm like, I would never believe that. 242 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: You know, people still ask me like, oh, do you trade? 243 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, no, absolutely not. 244 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 2: How do you feel in the world of the show, 245 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: so you step into this character which is different than 246 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 2: you obviously, was there a process in and curiously your 247 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: process out every day? 248 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: How do you saying what you've said about making connad 249 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: our writer creators. They are really tuned in. They're plugged 250 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: into the world first of all, but they're really tuned 251 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: into us. And the sort of lightning bolt and the 252 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: gift of this show is when we started in season one, 253 00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: all of these characters were recent graduates, new to this company, 254 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: feeling imposter syndrome, desperate to make their mark and to 255 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: hold onto this job. The whole first season was them 256 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: like throwing anything at the wall and hoping it would stick, 257 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: with so much anxiety and desperation and panic, and you know, 258 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: and as we're all of we, all of us, all 259 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: of we literally the anxiety is getting to me right 260 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: now thinking about. 261 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: I can imagine. Ba's why putting it away at the 262 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: end of the day is so important. 263 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: But I want to hear what you're with, what you're 264 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: going with, Well, it was like not hard to pretend 265 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: that I was afraid that I had no idea what 266 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: I was doing because I kind of didn't. There was 267 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: no proof I hadn't really done much anything to give 268 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: me any indication that I could do this show. So 269 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: all of the like bright Eye bushy tailed mania of 270 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: season one came naturally to all of us, and as 271 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: we we've had the pleasure of making the show over 272 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: a long time, and we just we naturally grew involved. 273 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 1: And our writers, because they are smart and intuitive and 274 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: care about who we are as human beings, they evolved 275 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: the show with us as well, so like we we're whatever, 276 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: two years older before we did the second season, so 277 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: they said, Okay, the characters are going to age as well. 278 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: We're not going to pick up at a place we 279 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: left off that would be inauthentic to who we cast. 280 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: And they've modeled every season in that way, so it 281 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: feels I don't really have to try that hard anymore 282 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: to click in one. I've just been doing this show 283 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: for a long time. I'm familiar with the way they write. 284 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm much more familiar with the dargon. I still don't 285 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: know what it means, but I know what it feels 286 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: like in my mouth. So it's not hard to like 287 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: click into these shoes that I've been wearing for such 288 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: a long time. Similarly, it's easier to click out of it. 289 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: But I have sort of always been really good at 290 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: separating work and me. The story that sort of comes 291 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: to mind is in drama school, we were studying Meisner 292 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: and we were doing an exercise where it was one 293 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: person was in the room and the other person came 294 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: in and you both had to have a task or 295 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: a need that was the most important, and it was 296 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: it was an exercise, and whose need trump's the other? 297 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: And when do you sort of fold to the other 298 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: person or focus your energy that way. I was coming 299 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: into the room and my my sort of thing was 300 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: that my mom had died. My imaginary given circumstance, my 301 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: mom had died and I needed comfort, and I came 302 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: in and we did the scene. It had ended in 303 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: tears and it was all this mess and our teacher said, okay, stop, 304 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, ready, pronoes, And I immediately 305 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: just could like click out of it. I just knew 306 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: that that wasn't real. And I don't know why I'm 307 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: gifted with that, because I that's a thing that I'm 308 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: really grateful that I have, but I can just give 309 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: it away. I can throw it away, I can be 310 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: done with it. Doesn't mean I'm not exhausted, but I 311 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: can walk away from an imaginary circumstance easily. And I'm 312 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: really grateful because I know that that's not true for 313 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people. 314 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: Everyone's different. Yeah, but I think it's such a honestly 315 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: healthy way. It works for you. Everyone has their own process, 316 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 2: so I shouldn't make any judge, but everyone has their 317 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 2: own process, yeah, and then whatever works for them works 318 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: for them. 319 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, what I mean. 320 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: But I'm I'm sort of cut from the same way. 321 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 2: It's like I always liking it to be. You know, 322 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 2: if you have an emotional scene or something coming up, 323 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: you know, I don't completely cut off, but it's like 324 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: I take whatever's happening, build a little, build it a little, 325 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 2: I guess, so it's there and kind of percolating. Or 326 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 2: I about a pot on the stove a little bit, 327 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: you know, so you might be a little less engaging 328 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: or engaged, but you're still there, you know. And then 329 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 2: as you begin to like focus on the scene, it 330 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 2: sort of you bring it down and the pot comes 331 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: up a little bit and then you're locked in and 332 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 2: then like you it's like I'm kind of actually, once 333 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 2: we're done, you know what I mean, you take the 334 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 2: fire off until they turn around and they say, okay, 335 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 2: now you're off camera. But no person, oh I got 336 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: to get this back up again. Ship yeah or yes, yes, 337 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: because it's so easy to toss it away and then go, 338 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 2: oh I need it back again quickly, right, Partners like 339 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 2: come on, But I think that's that might just part 340 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 2: of training, I think, because you learn totally. It's also 341 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: a thing that for me, it's it's just a stamina, 342 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: endurance energy. The more I hold on to it takes 343 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 2: a lot of energy, you know what I mean. And 344 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: so when you can, as you say, drop it, move on, 345 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 2: you know, you can kind of like okay, you know, 346 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: go have a cliff board. 347 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: Somewhere and yeah, pre charge. I think also like this 348 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: is a training thing too. Like the thing that I 349 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: learned was to make a fantasy. True. I didn't study 350 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: any sort of technique that was about bringing in my 351 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: own personal things. I hardly ever connect my work to 352 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: like my own life. The one and only time was 353 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: maybe when I did that exercise Advisor and said my 354 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: mom's dad. But I really try not to hurt myself 355 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: or involve myself. I really click into this other person's life, 356 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: and I make that other person's life true for me. 357 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: And when I'm not in that other person's life, it's 358 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: not true for me anymore. Really good distinction, because it 359 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,239 Speaker 1: really does feel really, I mean, the whole point of 360 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: acting is like you, you create reality of fake reality, 361 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: and you make it feel true. Oftentimes that stuff is painful, 362 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 1: it could be joyous, it could be whatever. But then 363 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: I want to walk away from it and not be 364 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: holding onto someone else's life. It can get really confusing. 365 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: So I have studied compartmentalizing. I put that box over there, 366 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 1: and I shut it, and I go home and I 367 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: watch Real Housewives, And you know what I mean. I 368 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: decompress by getting into my own life, the stuff that 369 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: I actually love, the things that I actually feel. I 370 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: call my mom and make sure she's not dead. 371 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 2: You know, yes, because it's what you bring up as 372 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: something Because as you're talking, I'm thinking about my process, 373 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 2: and it's like there is a thing where I will 374 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: tap into something that's probably personal as a what if 375 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. At the same time, I 376 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 2: don't want to keep pulling from that. Ye tucking on 377 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 2: that too. But whatever it is you know that I need, 378 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 2: I will get. It's almost like a Primesy engine. And 379 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: then you go into the life of the character. What 380 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 2: is the situation, the imaginary situation that you make real. 381 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: It's a weird profession to being an actor because you're 382 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: right out front. But I'm like, I don't really like 383 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 2: to be upfront. Yeah, I'm much more comfortable. Like in 384 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 2: the course, there are sometimes when the roles say sort 385 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: of they demand it of you. 386 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: I agree, like I sometimes have trouble being a person 387 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: who's known in the world, which is literally ridiculous because 388 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: I'm so online. 389 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 2: Well, hopefully we deal in truth, authentic. You're trying to 390 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 2: get to really the core of the character, right, so 391 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 2: that kind of it's also your search as a person, 392 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And so when you present 393 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 2: yourself or you comment or whatever it is, this is me, 394 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 2: you know, as a person. And I feel like, you know, 395 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 2: ten years ago, fifteen years ago, certainly when I was younger, 396 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 2: that was not done, you know, you kind of and 397 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: it's like you present to the world the image that 398 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: you want them to see, and I think now it's like, uh, 399 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 2: you know, I'm that, but I'm this, and I'm this, 400 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 2: and I'm all these different things. 401 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting because I do wonder often, like what 402 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: it was like to be in this space, to be 403 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: an actor and like not have any social media, Like no, 404 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: you really could completely disappear your actual self and do 405 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: this thing that you say, like present a picture to 406 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: everyone else like who you are, but it's really still 407 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: like a persona or whatever, especially when you're like creating 408 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 1: the content yourself. I hate saying that, but like when 409 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: you're putting yourself out there, people can smell the unauthenticity, 410 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: like they know if it's not real right away, and 411 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: I think I definitely do. People crave it. That's why 412 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: I like being an actor, because I am always in 413 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: this pursuit of truth of humanity. I think people are 414 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,239 Speaker 1: very interesting, and so I just want to discover and 415 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: objectify them, Like I want to get into the minds 416 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: and the psychees of people because I find them interesting. 417 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,479 Speaker 1: But I want it to be true, whatever it is, bad, good, ugly, whatever, 418 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: I really want it to be true. Yeah, it's like 419 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 1: a hard balance to strike because I alway always want 420 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: to be true, and sometimes I feel overexposed because other 421 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: people want it to be true too, But sometimes their 422 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 1: perception is whatever it is, and then they feel they 423 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: need to tell you about it, and then that can 424 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: be hurtful, especially when you're always trying to be true. 425 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: I think we're also like, I'm definitely trained in the 426 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: business of being vulnerable, being susceptible to things because I 427 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: want to be like affected by my scene partner, right 428 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: so that I can be true as I respond. So 429 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: I find myself being incredibly susceptible to the world outside 430 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: of work as well. I'm a very I wear my 431 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 1: heart on my sleeves so much so that like anything impenetrable, 432 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm not, you know, I love I would love to 433 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: say that, like I don't care about this or that 434 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: or the other thing.

He 467 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: has no shame, He's totally vulnerable. He wants truth. That's it. 468 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: I think I agree with you, and I think he 469 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: wants the best scene. He wants the best. It's not 470 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: like I want to be the best in this. I don't, 471 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 2: you know, there's no competition with that.

Anyway, how has 477 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 2: styling influenced your approach to the character through the season? 478 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: Tailoring holds your body in a way that other things 479 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: do not.

But she's so committed to 491 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: storytelling through her clothes. Again, no ego there. It's all 492 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: about like, what is Harper on the inside going through? 493 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: How is she how is that manifesting on the outside? 494 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: Is she protecting herself? A lot of Harper's costuming to me, 495 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: feels like armor and suiting. Tailoring is a great way 496 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: to mimic protective gear. Evolution is also like, I mean, 497 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: the show is about money, and in the first season 498 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: she's wearing like hand me down garb from Goodwill Vibes. 499 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: Second season she's in Primark, stepped up to the Targe 500 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: of the UK, and in season three and four she's 501 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: finally got the kind of money that she is after 502 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: and so that's reflected in the clothes that she can afford. 503 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: In season four, she's wearing custom made suits and that 504 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: to me feels like power. It's really sexy as well suiting. 505 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: What she's doing with her clothes is letting the people 506 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: around her know not to mess with her. Like she 507 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 1: I'm the boss.
