Good Morning, World!

“don’t paint your house naked”..... you know it’s a good thing you warned me because quarantine was getting a bit boring (as I can no longer chat to my old friend, Derek the traffic cone)

Carrie you're such a good cat mother, so caring 💕

[@callumdoherty7204]

To whoever reads this, have a wonderful day today!!

[@bmc4465]

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question! I did actually get offered a scholarship when I had auditioned for stage schools but the 75% wasn’t enough unfortunately, however, I know there are multiple ways in to the industry and I think I’m going to start looking at some of the 1 year courses you mentioned earlier, as well as trying again for some stage schools next year. Thank you guys!

[@emilytighe3537]

good news! just keep working and everything will work out fine 🤍

[@xtheaceofspades]

Hey Brandon - see if any schools are credited with a university? For example I’m pretty sure GSA is so you can get a student loan. I went to trinity laban (trinity school of music and Laban contemporary) for musical theatre, I had to apply via CUKAD (conservatoire ucas) and my fees were the same as uni and therefore covered by student loan :)

[@annammermaid9702]

Going on the "never being to old to change career". My Dad was 50 when he went back to uni to become a successful teacher. Never to late to follow a dream/passion x

[@xAbbieCx13]

The Six band id such a big deal in the show, there's only 4 of them and they have their own character names, it really wouldn't be the same without those amazing ladies. 😊

[@sophiehare3131]

Good morning everyone 💕

[@Bee4Bumble]

Hehe did anybody else notice Edgar scrambling to climb the picture and failed at about 4:43. So adorable ❤️

[@hannahryan9678]

I know I'm in a different field, but I dropped out of uni and decided to go in a completely different career direction (I was studying post production for TV, and now I'm at college becoming an electrician) and I thought that I wouldn't be able to afford the college fees, but I asked and it turned out I qualified for the course to be completely free, so I would say that whatever area you want to go into, and you need to go back into education, it is ALWAYS worth asking what finance options are available to you, and that it is often likely you won't have to pay the full fees

[@ellievallance1487]

I can confirm that you were correct in your Wigan kebab description. Also known as a pie barm, 🍞🥟

[@bethcaunce907]

Or breakfast lol

[@maisiehailwood1734]

I’m moving to Wigan in September and I can assure you.... I’m not sure I wanna try the Wigan kabab 😂

[@myra.magdalene]

Thank you guys so much for addressing the topic of coming into musical theatre later on! I'm nearly 25 and made the decision to begin studying MT a year ago. I have been so scared as an older student of not succeeding, but I just knew that I had to take the leap because this is what I've always wanted to do and if I didn't do it then I would have never known how happy it could make me. Now I'm just excited to see what the future holds and I know that I can have a long, healthy career as long as I work smart and hard. Thank you for the constant motivation to keep pushing through this very weird time! Also Rachel Montgomery if you see this comment message me and we can chat about being old together!

[@phoebe3428]

six are still having their live band !! (ladies in waiting) and there's only 4 of them

[@VeraHeidkamp]

I just watched this and yesterday's video and they made me feel so much better. This content is so warm and nice and positive in this weird time. Also, I love how you just always use 'they' as a pronoun when referring to people who have sent you an email!

[@sevenskies3424]

I'm from Dubai and would love to see more shows!

[@laurablakey6750]

Good morning everyone 😊❤️

[@rachelh2774]

Love these videos so much!! I think Come From Away could work as a drive-in version as it’s quite a small cast and small band but I agree with what you guys said about it not working as well as Six :)

[@doyouhearthepeoplesing2]

No come from away wouldn’t work because it relies heavily on the revolve

[@hatorigirl1202]

Broadway had this trend of doing a version of a show where each cast member also played an instrument with minimal but impactful set dressing. It'd probably be an easier way of doing shows in distancing. But they might be too quiet and artsy to translate through cars. I saw Sweeney Todd in the pared down form and it was amazing. And Company did it and was filmed that I've watched. It's a unique and cool viewing experience.

[@hannahhilditch03]

I'm from Scotland (specifically the Highlands near Inverness) and we LOVE a pie in bread. Although typically it would be a roll/bap rather than slices, and common pies are scotch pie or macaroni and cheese pies! Honestly it sounds ridiculous but its amazing!

[@Liezjeuh]

Hello Everywhere, London, from Everywhere, Belgium. :p Carrie you are the sweetest cat mum ever :)

[@princessenjay]

I think Come from Away could also do something. The cast is 12 with the band,4 people. And it does not have an elaborate stage. Or maybe more plays in the park were people can sit apart.

[@mollykennett1547]

Good morning :) xx

[@JenCoYT]

ah just finished my shift in Tesco this is such a great pick me up

[@heidinicole1159]

&Juliet would also be great as a concert!

[@lilypearce4822]

when you were talking about going into musical theatre and it being a possible disadvantage and it really inspired me as I've just left comprehensive in march and have finally decided that musical theatre is what I want to do, and what you've said this morning has really inspired me to keep going on with my passion and my dream so thank you!

[@accountforwastingtime]

I was turned down from a couple of jobs earlier this year I thought I was perfect for, got along with the people great, really qualified...lemme tell you they were not jobs I would have wanted during this pandemic! One of them actually shut down totally for a couple of months so the job may have been cancelled soonafter if I was offered it! Instead got a job somewhere that has been super supportive during this, I got to work from home, etc. Really is true that sometimes a no is meant to be, not every opportunity ends up being a good one, sometimes something better really is down the line instead!

[@saskiajohnson1970]

You both seem to address every single anxiety that I have about pursuing MT as a career and you’ve made me feel so much better, especially at this time when everything feels so uncertain. Thank you so much xxoo

[@groundcontrol7]

Thank you both for doing these, I feel like I haven't much left lol

A Wigan kebab or pie butty are very well known. I work in a well known northern pie shop (not Greggs) and get asked for pie and a butter barm regularly!! Love your videos

[@kamanonickname]

Alans Rickman movie debiut was in Die Hard. I know he was actor before but in movies he started at age of 41! It's never to late. Unless you wanna be professional ballerina or gymnastic, than your body wouldn't allow you. But you don't have to be professional

[@dayswithhan]

As someone from Wigan I can confirm a Wigan kebab is a pie on a barm cake! Also don’t knock it until you try it, it’s so good 😂

[@supernnnnlive]

There are so many options for drama school, just audition for as many as possible to increase your opportunity to get a scholarship or bursary. Good luck. I'll try and find some videos on it, or perhaps make them myself

[@deeoleary5439]

Alternative title for today's video....the adventures of Edgar 😁🤗🐈

[@maisiehailwood1734]

For the person who asked about studying at 20+ alra north do an MA course in acting for older people! Some other schools do it too so it’s a good idea to invest in an MA! Xx

[@tijay8507]

Older people lol!

[@maisiehailwood1734]

Ti Jay I didn’t know how to phrase it since any age can join MA 😂 I think it’s 21+ 🤔

[@orangepeas]

...are you alright Oliver?! Bye everywhere???

[@wakeuplydia]

God they don’t do half an half down south and it drives me mental - as well as and this is going to be gross when I’m drunk and I want a fried mars bar :/ and yes you smile at someone in London they look like you just stabbed them ://

[@jennyupabove]

Olly have you had a pasty barm from Bolton. Delicious.

[@NinjaCupcakeAttack]

Bang on with the WIgan kebab - it's a pie in a cob

[@Tiddlywinks847]

Hedwig and the Angry Inch would be a good one to launch the drive in format. It is a concert, Pretty much 2 cast members with a band on stage.

KT Tunstall is doing drive through concert with a live band and i am sure other singers/bands are arranging them too , i don't get why it is ok for football to go ahead with the players physically touching, spitting and shouting etc so i don't think it is fair that more can't be done with performances of all kinds, it sends mixed messages

[@catduff8092]

maybe deh could work it’s a cast of 8

[@doyouhearthepeoplesing2]

The drive ins are 100% illegal live shows are NOT allowed

[@tijay8507]

They are a long distance from the stage and also audience members allowed outside their designated area, they are not illegal, they have applied for permission and have to jump through a tonne of hoops... shows or performers would never risk it if it was illegal and there is NO law in place therefore it was never illegal per say,it was against guidelines ....

[@averyjudson8744]

Where do you live that it is illegal? As long as everyone is socially distanced and the performers as well are kept safe I don’t see the issue. I am sure the producers had to run this plan before the proper authorities before they announced the tour and began to sell tickets 😅

[@doyouhearthepeoplesing2]

@@averyjudson8744 I live in London go and read the government guidelines all live shows are illegal until further notice

[@doyouhearthepeoplesing2]

@@tijay8507 they are illegal live shows are illegal other wise the dam theatres would be open wouldn’t they

[@conniepeach3236]

The theatres are closed due to it being hard to regulate the number of people inside, the ensure appropriate distances, and that being in an enclosed space puts everyone at greater risk. The drive ins are socially distanced, and the two separate groups of performers (6 in main cast, 4 in the band) will be able to rehearse together maintaining social distancing. The producers would have needed to seek official advice before even talking to the casts about these shows, let alone announcing a full tour. Therefore, clearly, these drive ins are government approved. The setting is entirely different to that of a theatre and so isn't directly comparable (outdoors, have to provide own seating, no contact with anyone other than a steward scanning a ticket, rather than close proximity to others indoors with bars and restaurants)
