Biography

Souad Faress was born in Accra, Ghana, to Irish and Syrian parents and moved to London to study drama at the Guildhall School. She made her television debut with a minor role in 'I, Claudius' in 1976 and has since appeared in numerous series, including playing Dev Alahan's mother in 'Coronation Street' and holding a recurring role in 'Casualty'. In 1990, she took on the role of lawyer Usha Gupta, a Sikh woman who marries Christian vicar Alan Franks on the radio show 'The Archers'. Faress began writing in 2004, starting with short stories; that same year, her play 'Seed', which explores mixed-race relationships in colonial India, was also performed. Her stage credits include 'Beauty and the Beast', Tony Kushner's 'Homebody/Kabul' at the Young Vic, David Hare's 'Permanent Way' at the National Theatre, and the 2015 production 'Hurried Steps' with the New Shoes Theatre Company. She has also been a panelist at the Croydon International Playwriting Festival and appeared in the sixth season of 'Game of Thrones' in 2016.
