Maia moved to London in 2005 thinking The National Theatre awaited her arrival with breath which was baited only to discover that in actual fact her skills lay much more in the ‘putting crisps in bowls’ department of the jobbing actor/waitress job spec. For years she waited excitedly for Toby Whale’s phone call but discovered slowly it was hard enough to get dirty haired white shirt man from Crazy Larry’s to call her back. Naivety and leg hair was replaced with dry embittered sarcasm and a four inch pair of stilettos she hasn’t yet learned to walk in.
