Antonia Thomas

I'd love to get my teeth into Shakespeare.

My father was a classical singer of baroque music, and my older sister was in musical theatre, and I thought about doing the same thing but then realised straight acting was for me.

I've felt the pressure of wanting to be known as a young actress rather than just Alisha from 'Misfits'.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

I knew I wanted to be an actress as soon as I popped out.

I was thinking of going to London drama schools or to New York, because France didn't accommodate the things I wanted to do in film.
