Keanu Reeves, Chris Pine and the perils of first previews

Welcome to the latest episode of the WhatsOnStage Podcast!

Chief critic Sarah Crompton and editor-in-chief Alex Wood meet up from opposite sides of the Atlantic to discuss the latest hot news in theatre – including Chris Pine’s casting in Ivanov at the Bridge Theatre, how Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are landing on Broadway in Jamie Lloyd’s Waiting for Godot and why the new stage production of The Hunger Games found itself in a lose-lose situation with its first preview.

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!
