Abbie-lee discusses dreamers and realists in Shakespeare’s famous tragedy, how iambic pentameter ‘clicked’ Shakespeare into place for her, and the importance of representation in the arts. Abbie-lee is a graduate of WAAPA. She has performed with Bell Shakespeare as part of The Players and has appeared in productions for young people of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Macbeth. Most recently she was Assistant Director on Peter Evans' 2020 production of Hamlet.
