John McCrea is the breakout West End star of the last year. He’s currently strutting in heels as Jamie New in one of the most recent new British musicals to hit the West End, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.    John created the role of Jamie in the first workshop of the show in 2014. It transferred to London at the end of last year after its world premiere in Sheffield.    I went to meet John at the Apollo Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue. We talked about how the show was developed, how he found ‘his Jamie’ and how he feels about bidding farewell to his on-stage mother, Josie Walker who left the show at the weekend.
