This much I know: Aoibhinn McGinnity, actor

Ego gets in the way of being a good actor. I have always been interested in performing.

I started doing dance classes when I was eleven and then took up acting classes.

There was no real history of performing in our family — a couple of cousins did a bit and dad was always singing at sessions, but there were no professional actors. My parents were very good about my choice of career, although I’m sure there were a few mild panics in secret. They always encouraged me to do what I wanted.
