Welcome to the WhatsOnStage Podcast!
With the WhatsOnStage Awards nine days away, the Olivier Awards nominations six days away, the BAFTAS five days ago and the Critics Circle nominees now revealed, it feels like the right time to spend a long time discussing awards – their intricacies, their politics and, when controversy arises, what can be done to solve problems.
With that in mind, Sarah Crompton and Alex Wood try their best to predict who might get nominated for an Olivier Award on Thursday…
Crompton and Wood host a weekly series on all things theatrical. News, views, frank exchanges and lists offer an unmissable guide to what’s happening on stage (and in film and on television) now, in the past and in future.
The podcast can be listened to on various streaming platforms – including Apple Podcasts and Audible. Make sure you subscribe so you never miss an episode!
