This week I welcomed actor, musician, writer and producer Brian O’Sullivan to Up Next Studios to chat about his creative life and the incredible career he’s carved out to date!
Discovering his innate talent and passion for theatre at a young age, treading the boards of London’s West End aged 9 in Oliver!, he has gone on to work on countless productions including most recently Macbeth alongside David Tennant, alongside continuing to write and produce his own work too.
Creating his comedy characters Janice the GP receptionist and her husband Frank, in addition to a whole host of others, Brian has gathered an enormous following online from his sketches and this year sees him take his production UH HUH The Janice and Frank Story to the Fringe!
When not on stage, travelling the world playing the accordion or writing sell out shows, Brian is hosting and producing his incredible podcast Putting it Together featuring creatives from Scotland’s theatre world.
