#69 | From Naval Officer to High End Producer with Louise V Say (Shetland, Les Miserables)
Louise V Say started early in the navy. But she always knew she had a creative streak; that she was a storyteller. And with the leadership and resilience she had learnt in service, what better route to go than by implementing those skills as a producer? From there, she entered the theatre, then got her foot into documentary production, and has now produced several high-end drama series, including Shetland, Les Miserables, and Dracula. This is her fascinating story, and the stories she aims to tell.
Stick around until the end for our roundtable, where Lauren and Evita discuss the Oscar 2023 nominations and review the latest season of Ginny and Georgia.
