If there was a huge asteroid hurtling toward Earth threatening to destroy life as we know it and you could see one more show before you die, what would it be? It can be anything you want - a show you’ve seen before, one that you wish you’d seen, or something you’ve made up entirely. What would be YOUR Last Show on Earth? This is the podcast in which we ask a special guest the big, BIG question that nobody ever needed or bothered to ask.
Our guest this episode is Lee Mead
Lee Mead is an actor and singer who became a household name in 2007 when he won BBC TV talent competition Any Dream Will Do, which led to him playing the title role in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat for two years at London's Adelphi Theatre. He recently played Khashoggi in the West End revival of We Will Rock You and has played roles in other shows such as Wicked, Legally Blonde The Musical, The Phantom of The Opera, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Miss Saigon and Chicago. Lee has also enjoyed a successful music career, releasing four solo albums - the first of which was certified double Gold - and will release a new recording this year.
Between 2014 and 2019, Lee enjoyed a long stint on BBC TV as regular character Ben 'Lofty' Chiltern in hospital dramas 'Casualty' and 'Holby City' and over the course of his career Lee has won several awards - including Rear of the Year in 2007!
