What is your oldest possession? My parents bought me this beautiful dress from a designer in Cape Town called Balu for my second birthday and I love it so much I’ve kept it and I hope to one day give to my own daughter, if I’m lucky enough. Have you had any jobs that you wish had lasted even longer? Every job is an exciting and invigorating experience that in the moment you never want to end! What film in your opinion would be a terrible candidate for a reboot or remake? Unashamedly Dirty Dancing is one of my all…

What is the most pleasant noise or sound to fall sleep too? I went to Mexico earlier this year and stayed in a beach hut with a hay roof, so could hear the sounds of waves all night. I probably got the best sleep of my life there. Had you been born 100 years earlier and not had your mortality compromised by poor medical understanding and practices, what job do you think you would have pursued? Well, I don’t imagine a world where I’d be born a non-creative. So, I’d probably open a large house made up of creatives from…

What was the last thing you did for the first time? I had a flotation tank experience. It’s a large pod of salt water where you float in silence, in darkness. It was 95% pure bliss and serenity. But 5% was panic. It was an almost psychedelic form of meditation for me. Where I had to face myself. I will definitely do it again. I want to reduce the 5% of anxiety to zero. But maybe that’s the lesson it was teaching me: Perfection is useless. What non-English language cinema do you find the most interesting, or entertaining? I have…

What is the most interesting or obscure object you’ve found? When I was about 12, I was on holiday in Wales and I took myself for walk along the beach. I found a rock that looked very alien. It was transparent yet multicoloured and looked solid in texture. I put my hands on it and my fingers nearly went though it- turns out it was a jelly fish. It was absolutely massive twice the size of my head. I was lucky not to be stung. When did you accurately predict something? Trump being elected as President. I had the worst…

What would you like to learn? I would love to learn Spanish. I have the duo-lingo app on my phone which makes me feel great and that I am nearly fluent – the reality being far from that! I am certain I need lessons from a real human being to improve – which I will endeavour to do this year! What was your favourite music experience/ moment? I travel when I can to experience music in different settings. My absolute favourite being ‘Meadows In The Mountains’ Festival in the Bulgarian mountains. It is a relatively new and small festival located in…

If you had to live a year in any city in the world that you haven’t yet been to, where would you live? Tokyo, I would love to visit Japan! What is a film or a performance that you feel was ahead of its time? Katherine Hepburn and Ginger Rogers in Stage Door, the chemistry between those two in that film is electric! It’s such a fantastic film with such a strong vibrant female cast, great female lead films are still too rare in this day and age they definitely managed to crack it in 1937! If you could own…

What is a moment you’d like to relive? There are so many. I’m in my head a lot so I like to relive memories. The 3 months I spent in Rome with Sarah Jessica Parker were truly magical, the time I spent in Barcelona with my own American girl gang was really special, my family’s reactions to me telling them anything exciting is hilarious. Every moment where I laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe. What is a moment you can’t remember but you’d like to? My biggest talent/ downfall is I have an insane memory. I can literally remember conversations…
