For the 19th episode of the podcast, James chats to half of the incredible theatre group “SPITLIP” David Cumming and Natasha Hodgson.
Spitlip are The amazing creators of the hit London musical 'Operation Mincemeat' which is based on a true story about a secret WW2 operation involving a corpse being dumped on the Spanish coast.
Since opening at the New Diorama theatre in London 2018 and returning twice to different venues since then, Operation Mincemeat has won countless awards, boasted sold out runs, and been given 5 star reviews from the Daily Mirror, the Financial Times, Whatsonstage, The Stage, The Daily Mail… the list goes on. Operation Mincemeat is taking the theatrical world by storm.
David and Natasha not only co-wrote the show, they also co-composed it and star in the production too with David playing the socially awkward character of Charles, and Natasha playing the larger than life figure of Ewan Montegu.
In this podcast, we’re going to be discussing the future of Operation mincemeat (including a possible cast recording!), what’s important for aspiring thespians going into the industry, and we’ll be talking about why horror plays full of music and vampires are wildly entertaining - yet don’t make that much money!
