Phoebe Waller-Bridge

Waller-Bridge is nominated for five Emmys for the Amazon series Fleabag, about a single, 30-something Londoner dealing with tense relationships, grief and love. Originally broadcast May 13, 2019.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge writes female characters who are flawed, reckless and unpredictable. "As an audience, all we ever want really is to be surprised by things," she says. The actor and writer just finished an off-Broadway run of her one-woman show Fleabag, just as the second season of the TV show is dropping on Amazon.
