Interview
Paolo | You know we are preparing a new version of Romeo and Juliet, and we are looking for Juliet. Have you ever been to Verona? |
Emma | No, I’ve never been to Verona. |
Paolo | Do you see Juliet more as an innocent girl or more as a rebel? |
Emma | She’s both, she’s a paradox. She’s incredibly innocent, but I think that innocence gives her her strength and her wisdom. I think she’s not been tainted by the world yet, or told that things aren’t possible. |
Paolo | Do you believe in eternal love? |
Emma | I bloody hope so, I think so. Yes. I’m definitely holding out for that. |
Paolo | Has no one ever asked you to play Juliet? |
Emma | Many times. |
Paolo | And why did it never happen? |
Emma | It felt a little... on the nose. I wanted to try and do different things. |
Paolo | Do you think you’re ready now to play Juliet? |
Emma | Maybe. It’s just... dying on stage every time for months at a time seems tough. |
Emma gets on ‘stage’ to perform. | |
Paolo | Now you are on stage Juliet! |
Emma | Now I’m on stage. |
