Defining moments and milestones
Waller-Bridge began her career in London's fringe theatre scene, performing in and writing plays before transitioning to television with the cult comedy Crashing. Her breakthrough came with Fleabag, which she created, wrote, produced, and starred in—a series that transcended the boundaries of traditional sitcom through its innovative narrative voice and emotional authenticity. From there, she expanded into prestige television production and film, establishing herself as a sought-after creative force whose work consistently challenges genre conventions and centres complex, flawed female characters.
Created, wrote, produced, and starred in Fleabag, which won the Golden Globe for Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy (2019) and four Emmy Awards including Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series (2019)
