Olly Double interviews Kent Drama graduate EM Williams about being a non-binary ‘actor/ movement director/ theatre maker/ Arts-Council-grant-successful-person’, who has worked for, among others, the National Theatre, the RSC, and Dinosaur World Live at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre. They talk about such fascinating topics as their ‘self-tape game’ going up during the pandemic, finding their ‘clan’, and playing a motion capture Puck in a live online performance called Dream for the Royal Shakespeare Company. There’s some great advice about the importance of ‘following your joy’ to navigate your career path, and they end with some thoughts on how a career in the arts means thinking about what you do in your every waking moment.
