• Special Episode: Eva Noblezada & Reeve Carney

  To celebrate their official opening back in London… the Kit Kat Club’s newest dream pairing of Sally Bowles and the Emcee on the “exhilarating task” of joining the West End production of Cabaret, the power and vitality of a story like this for a 2025/26 audience and why they continue to be inspired by each other's performances each and every day.  We also dive into their return to the world of Hadestown earlier this year to record the live captured recording in London - and the welcomed creative task of not replicating their performances of Orpheus and Eurydice, but expanding it.  Plus, we uplift the celebration of difference in live performance, dismissing the false demands for note-perfect singing and why they believe “art always meets the moment”.

• Special Episode: Joy Woods

  The Tony nominee and Broadway leading star on heading to UK shores to star in Songs For A New World: The 30th Anniversary Concert - conducted by none other than Jason Robert Brown.  We also talk all things Gypsy on Broadway, her history-making, Tony-celebrated time as Louise in that production (including a special guest question from actual Laura Benanti!) and the “honour” of having a front row seat to Audra McDonald’s performance as Rose.  We also dive into the hard reality of fierce expectation thanks to her global virtual moments and how crippling that can really be, why the phenomenon of “the hardest song I’ve ever sung” with My Days in The Notebook wasn’t as easy ride as you’d first expect - and why she wants to move past the need for “pretty” vocals and focus on both heart and story, together.  Plus, why showing up and doing your best counts for everything!

• Special Episode: Matt Henry

  The history-making Olivier winner and London stage star on bringing his own touch of magic to fashion icon Nigel in The Devil Wears Prada stage adaption, collaborating with musical legends like Sir Elton John, Jerry Mitchell and Vanessa Williams, and why life at Runway is anything but a bore.  Plus we celebrate the release of the Original West End Cast Recording, transferring his moving song Seen from stage to studio and why the importance of that very song isn’t ever lost on him.  We also revisit his historic Olivier win, how Not My Fathers Son from Kinky Boots opened up a conversation between audience and artist about the power of difference - and why The Actors House remains one of his proudest achievements.  Host: William J Connolly Produced by: William J Connolly/Darren Bell devilwearspradamusical.com theactorshouse.co Learn more about your ad choices.

• S12 Ep1: Andy Nyman

  The West End leading man and genius of the acting world on leading the new West End production of The Producers as Max Bialystock, the vitality of the show to a 2025 audience and the honour of joining a league of legends that have played Max before. Plus, we explore the unmatched brilliance of Mel Brooks, why the joy of this world - and his time in Hello, Dolly! Last summer at the Palladium - was and remains a tonic to him, as much as he knows it does for the audience. And, we explore his standout role in Fiddler on the Roof, crediting an audience with intelligence and - thanks to his star-turn in the Wicked movie – he’s Hot 100.
