    • The Traitors on stage! Cate Blanchett! Sandra Oh!
      Jan 30 2026
      Phew – with new seasons at the National, Donmar Warehouse, Shakespeare's Globe and more, there's a lot for Alex and Sarah to unpack as they examine the latest announcements. But do all of these new shows suggest a growing cross-pollination between the worlds of theatre and screen? And what does it mean for audiences?

    • Bonus episode: About time – with Jamie Muscato and Sharon Rose from One Day, and Billy Crudup and Denise Gough from High Noon
      Jan 28 2026
      In this week’s bonus episode, we’re clock-watching! At Edinburgh’s Royal Lyceum Theatre we chat to the stars of One Day: The Musical – Jamie Muscato (Moulin Rouge!, Heathers) and Sharon Rose (Hamilton), who join us to discuss the challenge of ageing 20 years on stage and bringing this iconic "July 15th" love story to life through song. Then, we head to London’s West End where the tension is mounting in High Noon. We sit down with Tony and Emmy winner Billy Crudup and the powerhouse Denise Gough to talk about the grit and adrenaline of performing a classic Western in real-time.

    • Bonus episode: Beverley Knight and Ntombizodwa Ndlovu on bringing Marie and Rosetta to the West End
      Jan 26 2026

      The profound effect that Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Marie Knight had on contemporary music is rarely spelled out in full. There's a reason why Tharpe is heralded as the "godmother of rock ‘n’ roll." Between them, they helped reshape genres and alter tastes, all in a racist, misogynistic world that rarely gave them space to show off their groundbreaking talents.


      That is the story now coming to @sohoplace with Marie and Rosetta, George Brant's two-hander that brings a rocking, untapped history into the present day. Stars Beverley Knight and Ntombizodwa Ndlovu sit down to chat about their time with the production, aided by director Monique Touko and movement director Kloé Dean.
