Explicit content warning
04/22/21 • 63 min
This week we chat to actor and playwright, Darrel Draper. He joins us on the show to talk about his new play “Dust and Such”, that’s inspired by his own experiences of life on a Havering Council Estate.
Darrel expresses how he has turned dreams into reality by offering first chances in professional, paid work with the intention of bridging the industry’s social class gap. And all over a few tumblers of hazelnut rum!
Darrel is currently raising funds for the next phase of “Dust and Such,” to offer quality theatre at a low cost to those from disadvantaged and under-resourced communities. If you want to support Darrel in his work, you can “buy him a coffee”, by heading over to ko-fi.com/darreldraper

Two Actors Walk Into a Bar and Prepare For The Stage
It’s the penultimate episode of Season 2- where has the time gone? And the beer? Never fear, Tiger Gin is here.
The UK is opening back up and life is starting to resemble something like normality. Summer is on its way and there is optimism in the air. Especially for us actors, because this brings with it the opportunity for live theatre to get back on its feet. So, as we emerge from our creative chrysalises, it’s not just the excitement that can be overwhelming. Scarlett and Dave talk us through nerves as they knew them and the nerves that they have now. No good luck “luvvie” hugs? How will they survive?! No doubt they’ll laugh their way through it.
Pour yourself a gin and ride the dramatic wave! Will Mother’s Ruin reduce them to tears? Tune in to find out...
Thank you to the folks at Tiger Gin for sending us free samples. Check them out at TigerGin.com and grab yourself some bottles of delicious and award winning gin.
