We catch up with Joseph Fiennes in Wembley as he prepares to play England football manager Gareth Southgate in the West End. Dear England, by James Graham, about how Southgate changed the toxic culture of English football, opened earlier this year at the National Theatre and played to packed houses.
Nancy, Nick and Nick review Andrew ‘Hot Priest’ Scott’s bravura performance in all the roles of Simon Stephens’ retooled Uncle Vanya (known just as Vanya).
They also discuss the news that Steve Coogan is to star in the theatre adaptation of Dr. Strangelove in the West End, how Minority Report is coming to the Lyric Hammersmith stage, and Nicole Scherzinger starring as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard.
After the recording of this podcast, news of the veteran actor Sir Michael Gambon's death broke. You can hear a special episode on our sister podcast the Leader, where we celebrate his life and career.
