The 24-year-old actress is professionally appearing on the stage for the first time in a revival of Moliere’s The Misanthrope.

Explaining why she decided to foray into theatre, she said, “I thought if I don’t do theatre right now, I think I’m going to start being too terrified to do it... so I just thought, okay, dive in and give it a go.”
