Episode 2 Cruise Ships to Shakespeare with David & James

In Episode 2 of Acting Up, I sit down with actor David and dancer James, who share their generous and candid insights into the highs and lows of life on stage.

We talk big wins like touring, leading roles, and long contracts, as well as the tougher moments and why even the “shopping centre gigs” are worth celebrating.

From cruise ships to Shakespeare, TikTok fame to ushering in theatres, this is a deep yet playful conversation about chasing dreams, embracing setbacks, and finding joy in every step of the journey.

🎙️ Honest chats.
