  • Episode 17: Josh Winstone
    We welcome our first Audition Pianist to the show, as Josh Winstone joins Christopher Bartlett-Walford (All Together Now) for a giggly journey through listener's audition disasters. Those hilarious and embarrassing moments that happen in the casting room, that you DON'T normally get to hear! All anonymous & submitted by performers from around the globe.
    There's tonnes of tales in this week's show; from too many naked men in a waiting room, to two separate TERRIBLE lies on audition days (properly awful!), to strange music choices and what happens when you only sing the backing of the songs! Also, a great example of making it up as you go along, when your brain defaults! 
    FLASH! AAAAARGH!
    Josh also shares some excellent pearls of wisdom from the Accompanist's POV - a proper must listen for anyone in the #MusicalTheatre biz!
