#93 Miranda Cromwell: Starting Over Again

Hello and welcome to Season 3 of the Wanna Be Podcast. The podcast that takes you from where you are now to where you wanna be in 30 minutes or less.

Thank you so much for tuning in last week to Mercedes Benson’s episode. It was so good! I want to know what you took away from the episode, let me know in the comments on Instagram @contentisqueenhq

A quick notice for any aspiring or current podcasters listening, if you’re looking for a cosy and affordable professional studio space head on over to contentisqueen.org to join the waitlist for our space.

Today’s episode is a little bit different. Last year I had the privilege of doing a live show at the Underbelly festival on the Southbank. Today I’m pleased to be sharing this episode with you.

My guest is Miranda Cromwell. Miranda is a Theatre Director and she’s probably most famously known for co-directing Death of A Salesman with Wendell Pierce which started at The Young Vic before moving to the West End. 

Miranda has an enviable career starting out in teaching in Theatre and dance before progressing to directing shows as the Young Company Director at Bristol Old Vic. Miranda has been writing for the Bush Theatre, Talawa Theatre and Company Three. In today’s episode we talk about what drives her ambition, how she injects her core values into her work, working as part of a team and most importantly starting from the beginning and paying your dues.

Leggo!

A huge thank you to Miranda for doing the live show. She was a fantastic guest and I loved how honest and direct she was about her journey to date. She’s definitely someone you should be following. You can find her on Twitter @MirandaCromwell

Just a reminder that I’ll  be opening a members-only recording studio for podcasters in South London! If you’re interested head to contentisqueen.org to join the waiting list.
