Episode 42: Breaking down barriers and the feeling of isolation through creativity and joy.
5/3/2024
Equity and equality for all!
Philip Carter Goodyear, Social Justice Lead and Head of Suffolk Family Support at Ipswich Job Centre talks to Tony Casement, Head of Creative Communities at The New Wolsey Theatre.
Philip talks about his belief and mission to re-engage families and individuals, who feel isolated through unemployment, with the community. Offering creative experiences for families is essential to well-being and a journey to feeling connected again.
Philip collaborates with many organisations over Suffolk (including The New Wolsey Theatre and Suffolk Libraries) and together they have curated a wide range of fabulous cultural experiences for his Job Centre clients. From panto and tours to Llamas in the office - he missed nothing out!
Thank you Philip for such a candid and interesting conversation.

Episode 29: The Noël Coward Foundation on 'Brief Encounter' and Coward himself - The Master!
3/15/2023
We're joined by Robert Hazle (Cultural Development Officer) and Ella Radley (Digital Marketing Officer) from The Noël Coward Foundation to chat about Coward and one of the best British Films ever made in the history of the big screen - Brief Encounter
We start with the world of Coward glimpsing at his life and work. Robert and Ella are full of fascinating facts and passion as they chat in depth about Coward and how his Brief Encounter, originally adapted from short play 'Still Life', emerged from his repertoire and why.
We discuss Brief Encounter, its phenomenal success as a cinematic piece and as a story of forbidden love as well as the the impact it had on its audiences then and now. Brief Encounter, they say, is still as relevant today as it was in the 40's. We also chat about Emma Rice's adaptation for the stage and how she transforms the film into another brilliant dimension.
Thank you Robert and Ella for your generous time!
Rice's dazzling musical adaptation of Coward's Brief Encounter is on tour in the UK from 31 March 2023. A New Wolsey Theatre and Wiltshire Creative production and in association with Yvonne Arnaud Theatre. Directed by Douglas Rintoul.

Episode 28: Paulus on Victoria Wood and his fabulous show 'Looking For Me Friend!'
3/2/2023
Paulus, AKA The Cabaret Geek joins us for a chat about his fabulous new show - Looking For Me Friend.
The show, with 5 star reviews, is dedicated to legendary Victoria Wood with more than 20 of her songs from her incredible repertoire.
Paulus talks about his life long adoration for Vic, as he calls her. He never met her, although nearly did, and - well,... you can listen to the story - he tells it better than us!
Chatting from his home in London, and in the company of his cat, Paulus talks about the show in detail; what fans can expect, and how he and his colleague, have developed a perfect stage moment which captures so much of her talented songs and work..... Yes they'll be some of her much loved characters in there.
Looking For Me Friend is no tacky copy-cat act, Paulus let's loose the show's content through his own personality and style - and the combination of his humour and addictive delivery makes this show a stand-out - for everyone to enjoy - you definitely don't need to know about Victoria Wood to see this show - but we guess you will know an awful lot about her, and the awesome Paulus, when it's over!
★★★★ 'If you are a fan of Wood, or simply feel the need for some uplifting, live entertainment, then this is a must see.'

Episode 27: Actor ROBERT DAWS chats about Wodehouse in Wonderland and his passion for PG Wodehouse
2/20/2023
In this podcast episode we plunge into the literary world of PG Wodehouse with well-known actor, Robert Daws. Robert appeared in the TV series of Jeeves and Wooster as Tuppy Glossop and played Dr. Gordon Ormerod in the long-running ITV drama series The Royal– to name just two from a long, successful and highly acclaimed career.
Robert is an expert on the works of PG Wodehouse – and he tells the story of how he came to be touring with the show and what an incredible success the tour has been so far. He also talks about his passion for PG Wodehouse’s work – not just a writer, but a musician and lyricist – did you know he wrote the lyrics to Anything Goes (British Version?!)
‘Everyone should come to see the show, whether you love PG Wodehouse or not – it’s a great night out at the theatre, full of laughter and music.”
Thank you to Robert for such a great conversation – we can’t wait to see you at the New Wolsey Theatre soon!
Wodehouse in Wonderland is based on the life and writings of PG Wodehouse. William Humble’s play is set in the 1950s and takes us to the author's New York State home with songs by Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Ivor Novello.
The show is presented by Cahoots Theatre Company, written by William Humble by arrangement with the Wodehouse Estate.

Episode 26: Chatting to the hilarious Dave Hearn about 'The Time Machine'!
2/15/2023

We speak about his beginnings in comedy, specifically learning about improvisation, and of course about the world-famous theatre company he co-founded, Mischief Theatre, who are known for shows like The Play that Goes Wrong (West End/Broadway) and The Goes Wrong Show (BBC1).
Dave lets us in on some inside secrets of filming The Goes Wrong Show and how performing in a theatre compares to a TV set with a studio audience.
We talk about The Time Machine, which opens with us at the New Wolsey Theatre, why he chose to take on this role, and why you should come to see this extraordinary show...
Thank you to Dave for giving up his time to talk to us, and we wish the whole company the best for the rest of their rehearsals, as well as the tour!

Episode 25: Doug Rintoul on dark comedy play - DNA, and emerging talent from the region
1/5/2023
Douglas Rintoul talks about the black comedy with a dark heart - DNA (written by Dennis Kelly) - or as The Guardian quotes "sharp shocker of a play cleverly piles on the twists, as guilt and madness work their poison on group dynamics".
Listen to Doug's fascinating views on this explosive play and how he is about to create a gripping show which hits the New Wolsey Stage from 2 - 9 Feb 2023.
He says:
“DNA is a special project for the New Wolsey Theatre, it’s my first production as Chief Executive/Artistic Director, it’s a rare outing of this top-notch play from one of our greatest writers, but more importantly it celebrates the best of East Anglia’s emerging talent. If a regional theatre doesn’t support the growth of its local ecology then it will see the loss of more talent from the industry, now more than ever."
DNA runs from 2 - 9 February 2023 - New Wolsey Theatre, Ipswich

From specific one-nighters to our three-week run of Kinky Boots, learning about accessibility to winning awards and even staff coming into work during a snowstorm (the show really must go on!), we take a look back on so many things that have made it such a great year at the New Wolsey Theatre.
From all of us here, we wish you a happy and healthy Christmas, and an even better New Year!

Episode 23: Our fabulous 'Goldilocks' cast are back to chat again!
12/20/2022
In this episode, six of our lovely Goldilocks and the Three Bears cast came back to have another chat with us!!
We caught up with them in the middle of a double show day to find out how the show has been going so far, some secrets from backstage, and their favourite things about being in a panto!
We've got more (dreadful) Christmas cracker jokes too, as well as a little Christmas themed quiz for each of them - they definitely do not get competitive...
Thanks again to the cast for giving us their time to record with us!
