This week on Drama School Dropout I am joined by the amazing, Philip Shaun McGuinness! We chat about G’wed, working with The Vivienne, the things they don’t tell you at Drama School, paying student loans back, having a “fallback” option, life getting better after thirty, getting older, taking career risks, younger people becoming more political, how a single poster became a sliding doors moment for Philip, switching from a nursing degree to a drama degree, being a “mature student”, doing a PGCE and getting an acting job on the last day, knee replacements, performing on a ferry in your boxers, we teach a Scouse accent masterclass, believing in manifestation, the perfect casting of The Crown, the final episode of Big Boys, Jon Pointing, the genius of Russell T. Davies, the joy of booking a job from one self tape, Philip’s love of Dr Who, fatphobic agents, psychic connections to William Shakespeare and why I would like to swap lives with Donald Trump.
