8: Naomi Cooper-Davis - Don't Think, Act! - 22.10.23
"An Artful Bush Behind You"
Naomi Cooper-Davis is a comedic character actor that has appeared in Peep Show, Netflix's Sandman & Coronation Street among many other projects on screen. We talk about: how we rebel in some auditions; bad casting experiences to do with ethnic ignorance and even have time for a little history lesson as the questioning format goes out the window, due to having too much fun.
Naomi can currently be seen playing 'The Smarts' in the new MoneySuperSeven Ads, part of a re-branding campaign for MoneySuperMarket.
