“I can't deny 'Fleabag''s a very personal piece, but it's not autobiogr...” — Phoebe Waller-Bridge Quote

I can't deny 'Fleabag''s a very personal piece, but it's not autobiographical.

Fleabag knows men and women are equal and should be treated as such, but what she's confused about - and what I was confused about - was the idea that wanting bigger boobs doesn't mean you don't want equal rights.

I wanted to give people that feeling of wanting to hug the TV and just admit that you're unhappy.

People generally are just really nice to each other. You know, the good people.

I just love any kind of language that can change the energy in a room. There are no limits for me, as long as it feels like it's being used in a particular way to garner or elicit a very particular reaction so that you can then use that reaction later for something else.

What I write is very personal, but not autobiographical. It's more 'thematically personal' - what's up in my life in terms of themes at the moment.

I think any writer keeps going back to some basic theme. Sometimes it's autobiographical. I guess it usually is.

All of my plays are deeply autobiographical. But it's not straight autobiography.

Everything that I do is very autobiographical. I'm trying to be as much of an open book as possible and give the audience every single piece of me.

I categorically resist this idea that films are supposed to be autobiographical and the only stories you tell are about your own life.
