This week on Drama School Dropout I am joined by the amazing, Olly Rhodes! We chat about Waterloo Road, settling into unemployment, begging to be in the new Hunger Games, almost not picking Drama as a GCSE, staying in practice, how tragedy can catapult something into worldwide fame, people going too far in an acting class, two handers with Zak Sutcliffe, Shakespeare, working with Jason Manford, Waterloo Road’s collection of James Baxter cardboard cutouts, on set secret santa, what could happen to Billy Savage, covering Lewis Capaldi, crying in singing classes, Peter Kay, keeping secrets, possible forced marriages, mouldy subway sandwiches and what era we’re currently in.
