All that has become more important to me now. Motherhood Jenny Agutter came into motherhood relatively late. She had her only child, Jonathan, nearly seven, at 38. The ambition I felt got pushed aside. Family life comes first now.
Radio plays are also wonderful to work on, particularly with family.
You get deeply involved in a play for short periods of time, then you get time off. Until recently, there weren't many acting roles for women over 40. We now have women playrights, who are, as they mature, writing roles for themselves. Apart from the theatre, one of Jenny's great loves is her charity work. NCH is particularly close to Jenny's heart.
