Fearlessly Failing with Lola Berry
Society & Culture:Relationships
This interview was a pinch me moment. This humble, kind, honest and did I mention Tony Award winning actor is in Melbourne to play Scrooge in A Christmas Carol (which is on now and extended it's shows until Jan 7th). In this chat we look at Owen's impressive and colourful career from being Barry the Bear at Barry Island Pleasure Park as a young lad before drama school. To the iconic role of Ser Allister Throne from Game of Thrones. He shares a very funny colonoscopy story. To theatre and working with Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen (there's another funny Ian/Gandalf Lord of the Rings story too). Owen plays these incredible Villainous characters but when you speak to him in person, he's full of joy, he's all heart and extremely generous. I think he finds the fun in these "baddie" characters, and he remind me that "The devil always has the best lines!" Owen is often described as a big teddy bear and its just that. When he hugged me goodbye he gave me a big honest generous hug and i'll be honest, i got a bit teary. I think it's so rare when you meet people who truly lives with an open heart and people who see you. Owen is one of those rare ones, one of those people I feel very lucky I got to share an hour with one afternoon in Melbs. What a joy, and a gift I will carry with me forever. Thank you to the beautiful team at A Christmas Carol for making this happen, and thank you Owen, you are one of those brilliant humans with a spark in their heart.
