How Very Hannah

Meet my unofficial co-host Ruben, who refused to move and took over the whole chair 🐾

This week I'm answering your Confessions, and I'm walking you through exactly what happens at your first ever audition, from the waiting area to the dance call to the singing audition.

I also answer a 16 year old who's just been told to take performing seriously and isn't sure where to start. Plus, the first ever Sparkle of the Day, our new segment where you send in your lovely stagey stories 💫

P.S. We filmed this one over the summer, so a few bits in the first half are a little behind the times! ☀️

This month’s throwback will have you singing from the rooftops… cause I’m bringing back not one but three iconic guests!! 🎶

Remember Monday — Lauren, Holly and Charlotte, our 2025 UK Eurovision girls — joined me in the studio last year just before their headline tour. A lot has happened since.

We revisit the Eurovision zero televote moment, Holly’s secret nine-show Les Mis career, and the time I tried to harmonise with them live (perfect stagey chaos, as always tehe).

Get tickets for their 2027 tour HERE: https://www.livenation.co.uk/remember-monday-tickets-adp1428784?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAcGRvZgJzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAafOHDNHfrvl9nuHiQIGTVgoFBRvoND6mCNyqacPnbxDHJT1YMpAGHRbVm7PAQ_aem_kAH6WUrnsrk8FeyY2lVxTQ

She poked me in the brain with her wig, and we still had to walk on stage. That is on the Divina De Campo experience! 🤪

This week I’m joined by my on-stage husband from the SpongeBob Musical UK tour — the iconic Divina De Campo. Drag Race UK Series 1 runner-up, four-octave vocal range, Ride the Cyclone, Amanda at the Bridge House Theatre, and now about to play Hugo/Loco Chanelle in the 10th Anniversary UK Tour of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie from January 2027.

Oh, and she auditioned for that exact role straight after Drag Race finished…seven years ago!! Full circle doesn’t even cover it 🥹

We get into all of it — the SpongeBob memories, the Drag Race UK audition process, and her very first drag show failure that saw her never look back.

You can catch Divina De Campo as Hugo/Loco Chanelle in the 10th Anniversary UK Tour of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie from January 2027 — tickets here: https://www.everybodystalkingaboutjamie.co.uk/

Happy Halloweeeen 👻👻 well… almost 
This week How Very Hannah is going full spooky kooky, and I am not sorry!!

Forget the career chat. This week I'm telling you the real ghost stories of the West End — and I mean real. I’m going full true crime podcaster with FOUR STORIES from Theatre Royal Drury Lane, His Majesty's Theatre, and the Adelphi stage door.

Content warning: we do talk about murder. If that's not for you, skip this one — but if you’re up for some spooky kooky creepiness, DIVE RIGHT IN! 🎃

It’s a family affair in the studio this week, and it was absolutely chaotic! It’s Max, Harvey and Tilly!! ✨

The twins started performing as babies and went on to build one of the UK's biggest social media followings — all while being, by their own admission, completely annihilated at school for it.

Their little sister Tilly, 15, is along for the ride too, doing GSA on weekends and building her own platform.

We get into all of it, including their favourite and least favourite musicals (tea was SPILT), what it's really like to work with your family, and why being crushed creatively at school made them who they are today.

You can catch Max and Harvey on their ‘A Decade’ Tour — London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool and Cardiff from October.

Guys... we're throwing it back!! and for our very first Throwback Thursday we're going all the way to the beginning... 🎭

This is the episode that started it all - our very first guest episode of How Very Hannah, with the one and only Layton Williams. 

(listen to the full ep!!)

When we filmed this, Layton hadn't had his Olivier nomination yet, let alone won Best Actor in a Supporting Role for playing the iceberg in Titanique. 

His career is something to be studied honestly. We revisit the episode, Layton tests how well I actually know him (spoiler: not well lol), and we get into audition disasters.

A corn nut through and through… I’m sitting down this week with the woman currently living in my old stomping ground!! 🖤

Gerardine Sacdalan is playing Veronica Sawyer in Heathers — WhatsonStage nominated for Best Professional Debut for her turn as Juliet in &Juliet, and now taking on (arguably) the most demanding lead track in musical theatre.

We get into the Heathers fandom and what it's actually like to be on the receiving end of that level of dedication, why I Say No is her arch-nemesis, and why asking for what you want might just be the most important career move you make.

You can catch Gerardine as Veronica Sawyer in Heathers on tour. Get your tickets!! https://heathersthemusical.com/uk-ireland-tour/tour-dates-uk-ireland/

It's the first solo episode of Series 4 and we are going back to school!! 🎭

I've got my unofficial cohost (Ruben hehe 🐾), my notes, and approximately four years of drama school experience to share with you as term kicks off for so many!!

Whether you're starting drama school this September, thinking about it for the future, or just here for the chaos, I can say with absolute certainty that there are things I wish someone had told me before I walked through those doors on day one. So that's exactly what this episode is.

Good luck to everyone starting this September — I'm kind of jealous honestly!! 🎭

WE'RE BACK 🎉 Series 4 is HERE and we are opening it with an absolute legend...

The one, the only, the ICON that is Bonnie Langford is on the pod… and I am still not okay about it 😭

And there’s only one way to interview Bonnie - and that’s with a hot seat style chat to go through her ENTIRE career because genuinely where do you even start — West End debut at 7, Broadway at 9 opposite Angela Lansbury, and the maddest quick change story I've ever heard. She also tells THE corpsing story to end all corpsing stories, involving Bernard Cribbins in full drag as Widow Twankey saving her live on stage in panto.

Bonnie's currently originating Mrs Bird in Paddington the Musical (yes, the splits ARE in the script) and is heading back to Richmond Theatre this Christmas to play her first ever baddie in panto. I could have listened to her for hours, so let me know in the comments if you want a part two 👀

Catch Bonnie in Paddington the Musical until October, then in Jack and the Beanstalk at Richmond Theatre this Christmas!
