ALICE BRADLEY
I guess you could say that acting is in my blood as my mother and father are both actors, my grandfather was
a theatre musician and my grandmother was a singer and dancer. I suppose it seemed normal tor me to do a
little turn for family and friends. I certainly wasn’t a shy wallflower.
I went to drama school in London on Saturdays from the age of six. We were taught how to sing and dance as
well as act so I was a good all-rounder by my teens.
Once I’d left school I went to drama school in London full-time to do a degree. I must admit that I had a slight
lapse in commitment at that time, for a period of about six months. I joined up with the party crowd and danced
the nights away and slept late most mornings. It was only when my personal tutor told me that I was on my
final warning that I realised I might be expelled.
After the shock of that realization, I got my act together very quickly and ended up graduating with a first.
The Royal Shakespeare Company gave me my first real role and I acted alongside some great names in title
world of the stage. Now of course I'm better known for my Hollywood roles and people will probably be
amazed to hear that I first walked the boards as a Shakespearean actor.
