This week on Drama School Dropout I am joined by the amazing Michael Parr. We chat about performing Shakespeare, restoration plays, snobbery, auditions not being fair, toxic masculinity, the cool kids who peaked in year eleven joining the school musical, growing up as a “drama kid” in an area that always had the connotations of Billy Elliot, being a dual citizen, the financial side of the business, signing up to do stand-up comedy, navigating the invisible boundary of political correctness, getting dropped by agents, auditioning for Emmerdale, getting a new wardrobe from Emmerdale, working with Verity Rushworth, his acid attack storyline and soaps crossing over.
