Interview with Scott Le Crass
As the pandemic spread, and the country went into lockdown, then out, then back, then out then back, creatives everywhere had to adjust their lives and their modus operandi in order to bring theatre to the people and keep their art alive. One of those who has worked very well in this way is Director Scott Le Crass, and I recently caught up with him for a chat about theatre in the age of COVID. TE: Welcome along Scott. I’ve just been looking back and the last time we talked was in June … [Read more...]
Interview with Simon Gross and Aaron Johns
A couple of days ago my first interview with actors in the adult pantomime Snow White And The Seven Poofs was published. Today I talk to the multi-talented Simon Gross who co-authored, directs and acts in the show and the lovely Aaron Johns who, as his drag alter ego Vicki Vivacious stars as Snow White. As always, I started by asking the two thespians to tell me something about themselves. SG: I brought up on a farm in Oxfordshire, but farming was not really my type of thing as I always … [Read more...]

Interview with Linus Karp and Joseph Paterson
In 2020, Tom Hooper joined an elite group of filmmakers. Along with Kevin Costner and Peter Farrelly, Tom became only the third person to direct both a Best Picture Oscar winner and Worst Picture Razzie winner. The film that secured this was his 2019 version of the musical “Cats”. Generally panned by critics and musical theatre aficionados, it is very difficult to find many people that actually enjoyed the movie. My mother is one, and the other is a young actor by the name of Linus Karp. In … [Read more...]
