The Artist's Why
A podcast where I interview artists of all disciplines - writers, musicians, visual artists, filmmakers, actors, storytellers and even surfboard makers - to ask them what they do, how they do it and most importantly, why they do it.
The Artist's Why
S1 Ep3: Ema Sofia Fonseca, actor and playwright
In this episode, we sit down with Ema Sofia Fonseca, a talented Portuguese actor and playwright. Ema Sofia shares her journey from a highly sensitive child discovering theatre and writing stories at age six to becoming an actor working across film, TV, stage. She also talks us through her playwriting, for which she recently placed in the top three of the competition for female Portuguese playwright. The conversation explores the intersection of acting and writing, the challenges of being a creative professional, and the current opportunities in Portuguese theatre and entertainment.
