from Built For The Stage Podcast Hosted by Broadway Podcast Network
Maya Britto / @mayabritto_ is a standby for all three of the Schuyler sisters in the West End production of HAMILTON. Theatre: The Magician's Elephant (RSC); Tokyo Rose (UK Tour/Edinburgh Fringe Festival/NDI); Beyond the Circle (workshop, National Theatre); Becoming Angela (workshop, National Theatre); Arabian Nights (Hoxton Hall). Hamilton marks Maya's West End debut. TV: "British Airways 100"; "Someone You Thought You Knew" (season 2). Recording: Tokyo Rose Original Cast Album (Burnt Lemon Theatre); Buñuel in the Labyrinth of the Turtles (Alfonso Casado/Arturo Cardelús). How did you get into acting, was there a particular performance you saw that resonated with you? I remember going to the theatre for the first time to see THE LION KING when I was about 10, and couldn’t believe how fun it all looked to be a part of. It seemed so unreachable to be where they were, but still I never forgot that feeling. It wasn’t until I was 16 doing a school production of West Side Story in Nepal did it occur to me that singing, acting and dancing is as fun as it looks and is actually something I could pursue as a career.
