Podcast: Edward Seckerson Meets... Evelyn Hoskins

Edward Seckerson meets Evelyn Hoskins, forever associated with bringing Carrie White in from the cold in the invigorating 2015 Southwark Playhouse production of the ill-fated musical Carrie.

They also talk Spring Awakening - which marked Hoskins’s stage debut and is back for an original cast reunion; the loveable Dawn in Waitress where she shared the stage with the composer Sara Bareilles; and the stranger-than-fiction alchemy of 42 Balloons soon to be seen at the Lowry in Manchester.

Spring Awakening: 15th Anniversary Concert is on 2 June at the Victoria Palace Theatre – for information, visit: delfontmackintosh.co.uk

42 Balloons runs at The Lowry from 18 April to 19 May – visit: thelowry.com
