In between performances of The Belle’s Stratagem at Edinburgh’s Lyceum Theatre, Helen popped in, wig still on head, to have a quick chat. And what an inspiring time it was. We cover everything from 1700s feminist writing to anxiety disorder and lots that’s in between. I hope you’ll enjoy spending a wee hour with us. Thanks for listening!

Direct from his stellar success in The National Theatre’s production of Stephen Sondheim’s Follies, Peter Forbes tells me what it’s like to handle some of the most challenging material ever written for musical theatre. Along the way we chat about his recent work on audiobooks and his two-year stint in Mamma Mia in the West End. It was a privilege to speak to him and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks for listening!

I was lucky enough to catch Maureen for a great hour of chat between her phenomenal success in The Ferryman in the West End and taking her role in Simon Stone’s Yerma off to New York. With a well-known Scottish variety comedian for a father, Maureen’s path was perhaps obvious from the start, and her journey has been every bit as fascinating as her father’s. We discuss Yerma, The Ferryman, the power of art and Maureen’s passion for her vital work with Equity. Thanks for listening!
