Lush!

£12.99

From a small village on the outskirts of Swansea to the sets of some of the all-time greatest movies and TV shows – like ‘Love Actually’ and ‘Gavin & Stacey’ – Joanna Page’s journey to stardom has been extraordinary. In this funny, candid and endlessly surprising memoir, Joanna shares her story in full for the first time. Inside, she takes readers behind the scenes of her most iconic roles and introduces them to a colourful cast including Ruth Jones, James Corden, Richard E. Grant, Johnny Depp, Liam Neeson and Emma Thompson. Joanna also details her early life growing up on the glorious Welsh coastline – a life (not unlike Stacey Shipman’s) filled with family and friendly neighbours – to the sudden shock of moving to London at 18 (totally alone) to take her place at RADA, one of the most prestigious performing arts schools in the world.
