About this listen

He is an Olivier-nominated stage and screen actor currently captivating audiences in the title role of the brand-new West End musical The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry — a production that explores the power of perseverance and the importance of never giving up on oneself. In this exclusive conversation, its leading star reflects on what it means to take on a project as meaningful as Harold Fry, the powerful emotional response from audiences and why he describes himself as feeling both “honoured and blessed” by the very raw and emotive reception from audiences. We also celebrate his “extraordinary” co-star Jenna Russell and the inspiration of collaborating with creatives including chart-topping singer-songwriter, Passenger. Plus, we explore how this project had penetrated into her personal life, having a profound impact on his life beyond the stage, encouraging him to approach others — and the world around him — with greater empathy and love. And he reveals his unexpected favourite musical, recalls some of his favourite memories from filming The Full Monty in South Yorkshire — including the famously revealing strip-tease scene — and reflects on his long-standing connection with York Theatre Royal.
