In this episode of The Acting for Stage and Screen Podcast James is delighted to have as his guest the actor George Costigan. George has been working as an actor on stage and screen for over 40 years. He's played such iconic roles as Willy Loman in 'Death of a Salesman', Claudius in 'Hamlet', Estragon in 'Waiting for Godot' and James Tyrone in 'Long Day's Journey into Night', not to mention that he was the original Mickey in 'Blood Brothers'. A familiar face on tv and film, he might still be best known as Bob in 'Rita, Sue and Bob Too' but he's also appeared in 'Shirley Valentine', 'Calendar Girls', Clint Eastwood's film 'Hereafter' and in Clio Barnard's avant-garde docudrama 'The Arbor'. More recently he's played leading roles in Sally Wainwright's hit series 'Happy Valley' and 'Gentleman Jack'. In this lovely interview George regales us with anecdotes from his career and offers valuable insights for wannabe actors into how he approaches his craft.
