Call To Stage with Amber Davies episodes

  • 142 - Legally Blonde Cast Compilation: George Crawford, Hannah Lowther, Annabelle Terry & More!

    On this very special episode of Call To Stage, we're revisiting some of our favourite moments from Amber's interviews with the cast of Legally Blonde The Musical from this year!

    Re-live conversations with Jamie Chatterton (Warner), Karen Mavundukure (Paulette), Annabelle Terry (Vivienne), Jocasta Almgill (Brooke), Adam Cooper (Callahan), Rosanna Harris (Serena / Elle cover), Hannah Lawther (Elle cover) and George Crawford (Emmett) for the ultimate behind-the-scenes company conversation!

    From pre-show rituals to the audition stories that got them into the room... and even relive the big reveal that George Crawford had been cast as Emmett opposite Amber’s Elle!

    There are also brilliant behind-the-scenes moments from Gay or European, the What You Want dance break and the Bend and Snap, as well as a candid conversation about what makes Nikolai Foster’s production different from every Legally Blonde that has come before it and why this company, more than any other, feels like the cast were born to play these roles.

  • 141 - Debbie Kurup on The Bodyguard, Playing Iconic Characters & The Devil Wears Prada

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber is joined by the effortlessly sharp Debbie Kurup - a performer whose career CV reads like a greatest hits of British musical theatre.

    An Olivier Award-nominated actor (for her performance as Nicki in the World Premiere of The Bodyguard in the West End), Debbie has taken on some of theatre's most iconic roles, including in the West End productions of Chicago, Rent, West Side Story and Sister Act. On tour, she has also starred in Fame and as Cher in The Cher Show, and she appears on the Original West End cast albums of The Prince of Egypt, Girl From The North Country, Tonight's The Night and Sister Act.

    Debbie currently covers the iconic role of Miranda Priestly in the West End production of The Devil Wears Prada.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Debbie talk about the unspoken pressure of stepping into the shoes of a a character based on a real person, the remarkable experience of going straight back into Chicago as Velma just three months after giving birth and the importance of representation in the industry.

    Debbie also shares stories from the UK Tour and West End productions of Rent, her iconic turn in The Bodyguard and she shares her thoughts on why the material will always matter more than the money, and how she completed a university degree in a dressing room.

  • 140 - Meg Hateley on Mamma Mia, Growing Up In Theatre & Puppets

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber is joined by the warm and funny Meg Hateley.

    Growing up backstage while her mum Lindsay Hateley performed in shows such as Mary Poppins and Mamma Mia!, Meg Hateley has become a force in theatre in her own right. She currently stars in the West End revival of Avenue Q, having previously starred as Sophie in Mamma Mia! as well as roles in Fantastically Great Women Who Changed The World at the Other Palace and Coven at the Kiln Theatre.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Meg talk about the complete breakdown that puppetry rehearsals put the entire cast through, the full-circle moment of joining Mamma Mia! and being hugged by backstage crew who had known her as a little girl and the unexpected career path of someone who deliberately chose the acting course to avoid eight shows a week... and has ended up doing eight shows a week with a puppet on her arm!

    There are also stories from Avenue Q, Mamma Mia! and her first Southwark Playhouse production, as well as a joyful conversation about watching Maz Murray sing Winner Takes It All every single night.

  • 138 - Maria Friedman on Merrily We Roll Along, Audition Advice & Kimberly Akimbo

    We are joined by one of the most extraordinary figures in British musical theatre on this episode of Call To Stage - the legendary Maria Friedman.

    A three-time Olivier Award winning, Tony and Grammy Award nominated actor and director, Maria's mark on musical theatre is indelible.

    As an actor, she won the Olivier for Best Actress in a Musical for her turns in Passion, By Special Arrangement and Ragtime; she is also known as a beloved narrator in the 1999 film of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, as well as starring as Roxie in Chicago, Dot in Sunday In The Park With George and originated the role of Marian in The Woman In White on the West End and Broadway.

    As a director, Maria directed the acclaimed revival of Merrily We Roll Along in the West End and on Broadway - earning nominations at the Oliviers, Drama Desk Awards, Tony Awards and Grammy Awards. She also directed the revival of High Society at The Old Vic.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Maria talk about the audition room wisdom she has learned that every performer needs to hear, the full-circle moment of opening Merrily We Roll Along on Broadway and her experience as the first Kimberly Levaco in the first ever London production of Kimberly Akimbo.

    There are also stories from Passion, Sweeney Todd and a legendary night at Carnegie Hall, as well as a conversation about hanging on to your corners and edges and why kindness really is the cheapest and most powerful thing in this industry.

  • 137 - Beverley Knight on The Bodyguard, Vocal Health, Rejection & Sylvia

    We're joined by an absolute icon of British music and theatre - the one, the only, the incomparable Beverley Knight MBE is on this episode of Call To Stage!

    Beverley's career spans four decades and multiple industries. A self-described "born singer" who was performing by the age of four, she spent two decades as one of the UK's most celebrated soul and R&B artists before making a seamless - and Olivier Award-winning - transition into musical theatre as an adult.

    Beverley's theatre career includes the West End casts of The Bodyguard, Memphis, The Drifters Girls, Grizabella in Cats, Deloris in Sister Act and more. Along the way, she has earned three Olivier Award and WhatsOnStage nominations, including one Olivier win for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical for Sylvia.

    She currently stars as Emmeline Pankhurst in Sylvia, which tours the UK before culminating at the Royal Albert Hall.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Beverley talk about the decision to leave music behind and audition for the West End with no stage school training, getting an Olivier nom for Memphis and her tradition of 'Bev's Bomb Bom Fridays' which she's kept going across every show she's ever done.

    There are also stories from The Bodyguard, The Drifters Girl and Sylvia as well as a heartfelt conversation about keeping going in the face of rejection.

  • 136 - Chumisa Dornford-May on The Great Comet, Olivier Nominations & Into The Woods

    We're joined by the warm and captivating Chumisa Dornford-May on this episode of Call To Stage!

    Having grown up between Cape Town and England, Chumisa has rapidly established herself as one of the most exciting performers of her generation. Having made her mark originating the role of Natasha in Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, for which she received an Olivier Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical, she has gone on to play Christine in Phantom of the Opera, Cinderella in Into the Woods (Bridge Theatre), the Mistress in Evita (Curve), as well as Wednesday Addams Addams Family concert at the London Palladium.

    She is currently making her RSC debut in The Cherry Orchard at the Swan Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Chumisa talk about the extraordinary experience of leading a show for the first time in The Great Comet at 22, the Olivier nomination she still can't quite explain and the pressure that came with it going into Into the Woods.

    There are also stories from Phantom of the Opera as well as a conversation about making her RSC debut in a straight play for the first time.

  • 135 - Christian Edwards on Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Imposter Syndrome & West End Producer

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber is joined by the hilarious Christian Edwards... who arrives straight from the reinvented production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in Newbury to be with us!

    Christian has built one of the most eclectic and entertaining careers in British theatre, spanning straight plays, musicals and regional tours. Having established himself with major West End roles in Les Mise´rables and Oliver!, he has gone on to perform in plays at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre (including A Midsummer Night's Dream and Macbeth) as well as UK Tours of Rasputin, Emma, Cyrano and more.

    However, Christian also has one role unlike any other on Call To Stage - having played the anonymous satirical theatre personality West End Producer for 14 years; winding up, celebrating and gently skewering the British theatre industry, all while playing roles in the very shows he was tweeting about.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Christian talk about the birth of the West End Producer - the 14-year secret that had him lying to friends' faces, getting Cameron Mackintosh to follow him without ever revealing who he was, and the "I'm Spartacus" style reveal that had Beverley Knight, Rufus Hound and Reece Shearsmith all claiming to be him.

    There are also stories from Les Misérables, Jesus Christ Superstar and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, a relatable conversation about imposter syndrome and the two fish in the river outside the theatre that decide whether it's going to be a good show.

  • 134 - Bradley Gibson on Hercules, The Lion King & Netflix's Partner Track

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber is joined by the effortlessly chic Bradley Gibson!

    Bradley is one of Broadway's most exciting leading men. Having grown up in North Carolina and training at the Boston Conservatory, he made his Broadway debut as a swing in Rocky before going on to play Simba in The Lion King on Broadway, Tyrone in the Original Broadcast Cast of A Bronx Tale (alongside Ariana DuBose) as well as roles in TV on Partner Track (Netflix) and Mozart In The Jungle (Amazon Prime).

    He is currently making his West End debut playing Hercules in the brand new production of Hercules.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Bradley talk about the moment he discovered his voice, the full-circle moment of singing in The Lion King on Broadway and then at the Hollywood Bowl, and his experience making his Broadway debut in Rocky.

  • 133 - KayCee Stroh on High School Musical, BTS Stories & A West End Debut

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber is joined by an absolute childhood icon! The irrepressibly warm, joyful and genuinely life-affirming KayCee Stroh.

    KayCee is best known and most beloved as Martha Cox in the High School Musical franchise - a role she booked straight from Salt Lake City having never been to LA before. The show became a worldwide cultural phenomenon and a safe place for a generation of fans, and Kaycee has spent the two decades since championing its message of being unapologetically yourself, both on screen and off.

    She has also featured in a string of Disney projects (including The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and Andi Mack), and she is now bringing High School Musical to the stage in the 20th Anniversary stage production coming to The Lowry and then London's West End.

    On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and KayCee talk about the full-circle moment of returning to High School Musical twenty years on, the decision to uproot her whole family and move to London and the moving story of how a shy girl from Utah walked into a casting call and found the role that changed her life.

    There are also brilliant stories about the making of High School Musical, the tap moment with Corbin Blue that inspired Work This Out and the message from her work that KayCee wants to ensure is never missed...
