Indira Varma on why it’s so wonderful to be ‘horrible’ | Plays That Made Me

Indira Varma (Oedipus, Present Laughter) dropped by the Script Library in The Old Vic’s Backstage Cafe & Bar before heading down to the main stage to appear as Levene in Glengarry Glen Ross. The five plays she chose cover an eclectic mix of genres, but with one common thread — fascinating characters written by brilliant writers.
