6. She’s Most Confident On Stage
Tamla has spent her entire career acting across mediums, but the stage is extra close to her heart. Tamla told What’s on Stage, “My aim is always to mix it up and not get stuck in one medium. I’m itching to do another film. I’m probably more confident on a stage than I am in front of a camera. That’s purely because I’m very conscious my big face is on a big screen, and I’ve got quite an expressive face.”

Tamla has played a variety of characters, but there’s another she would like to add to the list. While talking to Female First, Tamla said, “I would like to play the character of Minnie in D.H. Lawrence’s The Daughter-in-law. It’s my favourite play in the whole world, it’s a great part, great play and the relationship between her and her husband Luther is gorgeous, old working class, colliers set in Nottingham. I’ve seen a couple of productions and knew from the moment that I read it that I’d want to play that part.”
