Magic - The Musicals & Theatre Podcast

A few weeks ago Ball and Boe popped into our studio to record a special show with Alice. They chatted about their new album Back Together, what happens when they go on tour and finally performing together in Les Misérables. This podcast is made up of parts of the show plus some bonus bits that got cut out.

This week’s podcast is a special show Alice recorded for Mellow Magic with Luke Evans. This is a special extended version of that show with bonus bits that didn’t go on the radio. They chatted about his new album, his career on the stage and how playing Gaston in the Beauty and the Beast now get’s him stopped in the street.

This week Alice is backstage at the Piccadilly Theatre currently home to Death of Salesman. She popped into Wendell Pierce’s dressing room to chat to him about the play, his time in London and his career. Then she wondered over to Sharon D Clarke’s dressing room where they chatted about her role in Death of A Salesman, her time on Holby City and reprising her Olivier winning role in Caroline or Change on Broadway next year. Death of Salesman is on at the Piccadilly Theatre until 4th of January

This week on the Musicals and Theatre Podcast Alice is in the bar at the Shaftsbury Theatre to interview some of the cast of the new Musical &Juliet. She chatted to Cassidy Janson (Anne), Miriam-Teak Lee (Juliet), Melanie La Barrie (Nurse) and Oliver Tompsett (Shakespeare). They chatted about this brilliant new musical that tells an alternative story to the Romeo and Juliet we all know and is set to music of the legendary writer Max Martin. &Juliet is currently on at the Shaftsbury Theatre.

This week Alice is joined in the studio by star of Goodness Gracious Me and The Kumars at No. 42 Meera Syal. As well as talking about her very extensive career they also chat about the comedy play she is currently starring in ‘Noises is Off’ at the Garrick Theatre.
