Episode notes
House of the Dragon’s Milly Alcock and Succession’s Caitlin FitzGerald join us at the Gieldgud theatre for The Crucible. The stars share what they love about the play, working with 17th-century language - which Milly describes as “like cooking with really good meat" - plus what they miss about home, how fame has changed their lives, and adopting London life.
We review Dear England at the National Theatre, which stars Joseph Fiennes as Gareth Southgate and Gina McKee as Pippa Grange, sports psychologist and Head of People & Team Development at The Football Association from 2017 until 2019.
We discuss School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play. It’s written by Jocelyn Bioh, directed by Monique Touko, and is on at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre.
What’s been happening in theatre this week? Sarah Snook (Shiv from Succession) is to return to the UK stage in January for The Picture of Dorian Gray, and we share our top picks of shows coming to the West End.
