Ep 37. A Very Waiting Room Christmas

Send us Fan MailWelcome to the Christmas special of The Actor’s Waiting Room! It’s just me this week - armed with a festive drink, Christmas film recommendations and an actors survival toolkit for the holidays. In this solo episode, I’m diving into what Christmas actually feels like when you’re an actor - the joy, the chaos, the family interrogation, and the annual “should I retrain?” moment that always hits somewhere between the leftover’s and the Boxing Day sales.I’ll be chatting about:- How I attempt to survive Christmas as an actor without losing my mind- Acting lessons hiding inside classic Christmas films - from Emma Thompson’s heartbreaking subtlety in Love Actually to the warmth and sincerity at the heart of Miracle on 34th Street- And my own little 2025 wrap-up: what I’ve learned, what surprised me, and what I’m hoping for in the new yearThink of this episode as a cosy Christmas chat between friends - honest, warm, a bit chaotic, and very Waiting Room.So grab your Christmas drink of choice, get comfy, and let’s celebrate the festive season together.
