Hall of Fame - How Could I Forget?!

It just occurred to me that someone was missing from the Hall of Fame:
James Matthewson joined me on June 10th to talk about his acting career. We spoke about his lead role in Disco Inferno, his show-stealing turn as Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar and his (then) upcoming role as Jesus in Godspell (which turned out to be one of the best shows of the year). Forgive my tardiness.

Another Hall of Fame Update

I've been falling behind with editing the interviews, and indeed with photos of my illustrious guests. So to correct that in some small way:
Vince Hope, the manager of the Alnwick Playhouse, popped in for half an hour on June 24th to chat about his career and his interest in the world of theatre.

I hope to get some more of the interviews edited and up online by the end this week, will keep you posted.
