Listen to me, a Drama School Dropout talk to my friends about the highs and lows of being a drama school student, graduate, and dropout and trying to break into the industry!
This week on Drama School Dropout, I’m joined by the brilliant Ty McPhee! We chat River City, Shakespeare, drama school, Firewater Thursdays, auditioning for Trainspotting 2 with Danny Boyle, working on stage versus screen, The Naked Neds, and River City’s final episode being written by Johnny McKnight. We also get into what it’s like working with your real-life best friend, farting on set, pre-show rituals, and what it means for Scottish audiences to lose our national soap.
