Adjoa Andoh has said she is happy to be “the gateway drug that takes [audiences] from Bridgerton to Shakespeare”.
The actress is known for her work with the Royal Shakespeare Company, as well as her role as Lady Danbury in Netflix's hit series Bridgerton. Reflecting on the variety of characters she has portrayed, reaching a wide range of audiences, Andoh told the PA news agency: “I think if it’s a good story, it’s a good story, full stop.
“So I really like audiences to step out of their comfort zone and be surprised by something new perhaps. And if I can be the gateway drug that takes them from Bridgerton to Shakespeare, let me be that person. I’m really happy to do that.”
