To commemorate Shakespeare's 461st Birthday, I am very happy to bring on to the Fixate & Binge Podcast, HANNAH YOUNG, a native of Stratford-on-Avon, the home of Shakespeare. Hannah is a classically trained actress who has performed extensively with the Royal Shakespeare Company over several seasons in her career. She features as Lady Macbeth in Cheek by Jowl’s film ‘Acting’ which is premiered this weekend in London’s The Barbican Centre, and has also worked at the National Studio in London and in several West End productions.
In this episode, Hannah shares her first experiences with Shakespeare, growing up in Stratford-on-Avon, recounting her work on the stage with stage and screen legends. She illuminates how she approaches her characters, and uses the text itself to explore clues and ideas about her portrayals for audiences.
If you're a casual fan of Shakespeare, a budding academic, a Bardolater, or terrified of experiencing Shakespeare for the first time -- this is the perfect podcast to hear from Hannah on how best to approach the immortal Bard.
In this podcast, I also provide a spoiler-free review of Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza's film WARFARE -- currently in theaters and well-worth the price of admission to experience on the big screen!
