Publisher's Synopsis
A northern soul speaks from the heart. Sheridan Smith is Britain's most captivating actress. Multiple awards and accolades across a career spanning two decades include a BAFTA for her title role in TV drama 'Mrs Biggs' in 2013, and two Olivier awards as a West End performer, the first in 2011 for 'Legally Blonde' and the second the following year for 'Flare Path'. While audiences cheered, critics raved, ratings soared and theatres sold out, for Sheridan, however, all this success and attention brought feelings of imposter syndrome, struggles with her mental health and panic attacks. As she fought to cope, every vulnerability was scrutinised in the weeklies and the tabloids, adding impossible pressure to an already difficult time.
