In this week's very special show, Kevin talks to theatre legend, Cassidy Janson, recent recipient of an Olivier Award for her work in '& Juliet', about her incredible stage career, including the many highlights, as well as the lessons learned along the way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • William Shakespeare really was the rock star theatre producer of his day. His work drew crowds from far and wide, and as well as being critically adored, he was also publicly renowned.
  • The arts, in particular, have been as essential as any other service during lockdown in terms of keeping people's spirits high, and reminding everyone of the beauty of life.
  • Stories allow us to take the journey of someone else. This is why stories have remained at the core of every artistic pursuit since the beginning of time. They are the perfect vehicle for providing escapism.
  • People are far too quick to write off the arts as unnecessary, but aside from the cultural enrichment, the arts also bring in vast amounts of money to the economy. Therefore, its dismissal by the government has been very hard to take.

BEST MOMENTS

'We knew it was funny, but you never know how funny it is until the audience arrive' - 9:56

'During lockdown everyone has turned to the arts in one form or another' - 12:37

'If we do bring this much to the economy, why are you not investing in something that will help the economy come back?' - 15:39

'I don't know how I made it through my early twenties, I was so naive!' - 38:00
