EMBETH DAVIDTZ: Hold Onto the Thing in Your Heart
Manage episode 493317261 series 1520135
In today's episode, Embeth shares the extraordinary journey that shaped her voice as a storyteller—from her upbringing in apartheid-era South Africa to her unexpected entry into acting through a university drama program. She reflects on being discovered in a play by a William Morris agent, catching Spielberg’s attention through a TV movie, and ultimately choosing to pause her career to raise a family. That pause led to a creative reawakening and a nine-year quest to adapt a memoir into her directorial debut, Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight. Embeth offers heartfelt, hard-earned wisdom on the power of saying “yes,” surprising yourself in auditions, and writing what you know.
These are the unforgettable stories that landed Embeth Davidtz right here.
