Conversation with Emma Crompton - Casting Director and Acting Coach

On the Irregular with Java Bere

This week I am talking to my dear friend, Emma Crompton, a casting director and acting coach.
Emma and I met over fifteen years ago at drama school. Since then, Emma has worked with some of the greatest casting directors, producers and directors in the world, on productions such as Line of Duty, Sherlock, Beauty and the Beast and Vanity Fair.

In our chat we touch on what it’s like to be Sacha Baron Cohen, in front of Sacha Baron Cohen, the occasional wisdom in giving up on your dreams and mental health as a deciding factor in her work.

A couple of warnings:

1) Emma is funny, and wise, and might make you cry with both of these qualities.
2) This episode contains a healthy sprinkle of expletives throughout.

Welcome to episode eleven and my superb friend, Emma Crompton.
