Emma Holt

Welcome to Episode 7 of Should the Show Go On? 🎙️This week I'm joined by the absolutely brilliant Emma Holt — performer, dancer, stunt woman extraordinaire, artist and all round force of nature. I am genuinely Emma's biggest fan. She's incredible, and she's also one of those people who can tell a story in a way that has you completely hooked, and usually crying with laughter. She has some of the best banter around, so as you can imagine, we laughed a lot recording this one.And Emma has STORIES.From sneaky biscuit eating, to shoulders completely out of control, missing items on stage, flying wigs and huge powerful rain machines and so many more, this episode goes in just about every direction possible. It is, quite literally, action-packed. 😂But amongst all the chaos and laughter, Emma also gives such a brilliant insight into the reality of being a performer, the things that don't quite go to plan, the moments where something entirely unexpected happens, and the extraordinary ability performers have to adapt, carry on and somehow make it look like it was meant to happen all along.Emma is funny, fearless, wonderfully honest and an absolute joy, I loved hearing her stories, and I loved recording this episode. Conversations like this, where we can laugh at the madness while also celebrating the artist, are one of the reasons why I wanted to create Should the Show Go On?Thank you, Emma, for coming on the pod and bringing your stories, your honesty and your truly excellent banter. Holty Forever ❤️A huge thank you, as always, to the amazing people from the Abderrahim Crickmay Charitable Settlement. Their generous support has made this podcast possible and allows these conversations to remain completely ad-free.Enjoy the episode, and thank you so much for listening. 🎭Artwork by Steven Baker.Jingle by softfriend.
