Jonathan Bailey is currently playing Jamie in the West End production of Company at the Gielgud Theatre. 
 The part, originally Amy, is one of five roles in the show that’s been gender-flipped. In this episode Jonny talks about how the show was modernised during the workshop process, the importance of queer roles existing without social commentary and how shy he went whilst working with Stephen Sondheim.
