Adelaide Clemens tells us all about her experience singing on screen for the very first time in 'The Swearing Jar.'
Adelaide Clemens leads Lindsay MacKay’s The Swearing Jar as Carey. She’s deeply in love with her husband Simon , but they do find themselves succumbing to marital frustrations every so often. Things get especially tense when Carey finds out she’s pregnant and the news sparks some mixed and very complex emotions.
While The Swearing Jar does offer great access to Owen, Simon, and his mother’s experiences , the narrative is largely focused on Carey’s journey, a deliberate choice Hewlett made during the adaption process. Clemens explained: “I sing by myself, but I didn't really have the confidence to — it's a very different thing. Your relationship with your voice on your own is very different to your relationship with your voice and people seeing it or hearing it. So I just got this audition and I wasn't sure what they wanted, and so I just recorded myself singing a Leonard Cohen song, I think it was Chelsea Hotel, and then I took some singing lessons and here we are.
“For me, I feel like Carey is imperfect. She's made a decision at some point subconsciously or not to engage with denial. I think a lot of parents can probably relate to it. But she's dealt a really challenging deck of cards and she is just coping, she's just coping. And I think Owen comes along and he's kind of comfortable being imperfect, and that is what gives her permission to then look at herself and he kind of holds up a mirror to her in a way.
