Whilst most of our podcasts are supporting specific upcoming shows, it's always fun to do something a little different. And that's what this latest edition is. Because we're chatting to Matthew Parker - director, actor, PR, and well, just about anything else that is needed to get a show on to the stage. Above all that, just an all round lovely fellow.

We chat to Matthew about his career, from starting out at a dance school through to running The Hope Theatre and now a freelancer who has won awards for his work. We also hear about how he found himself flying out to Australia to direct a show, and what he's up to next.

You can find out more about Matthew on his website here.
