Podcast appearances and mentions of Cynthia Erivo

Want to know the story of how Chris Hewitt almost stepped on Florence Pugh's dress? Well, this isn't the podcast for you, as it features Chris and Helen O'Hara trying to tell that tale, from the press night of Cynthia Erivo's Dracula (sorry, Draclier), only to get sidetracked by a dozen different things and forget to finish it. But if you want to hear Chris, Helen, James Dyer, and John Nugent talk about movie characters falling from great heights, pay tribute to the great Robert Duvall, discuss the latest The Mandalorian And Grogu trailer, and review The Secret Agent, Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die, Wasteman and If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, this is the podcast for you. Oh, and Chris and Helen launch new careers as theatre reviewers too. Guest-wise, Harry Stainer talks to the Oscar-nominated star of the Brazilian thriller, The Secret Agent, one Wagner Moura, and his director, Kleber Mendonça Filho. It's a cracking episode, even if we're still nowhere nearer to finding a nickname for Tin Jim. Enjoy.

In this week's mini-sode we are shining the spotlight on Broadway's Sister Act the Musical! From screen to stage, this show is a delightful mix of habits and shenanigans that has made it the classic it is today!Support the showHost/ Production/ Editing: Brennan StefanikMusic: Dylan KaufmanGraphic Design: Jordan Vongsithi@batobroadway on Instagram, Threads, and TikTokPatreon.com/batobroadway

The biggest opening of the year so far came this week in the form of Dracula, marking the return of Cynthia Erivo to the London stage. Sarah and Alex voice their opinions on the tech-heavy take on Bram Stoker's bloody classic – but are there too many bells and whistles for this to work? Plus – Westeros is stage-bound – the podcasting pair break down the news of the new play, Game of Thrones: The Mad King. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Poet, playwright and curator Inua Ellams and film critic Hanna Flint join Tom Sutcliffe for this week's reviews. Riding high after the huge success of the Wicked films, actor Cynthia Erivo returns to the London stage for a one-woman production of Bram Stoker's Dracula, in which she plays all the parts. Last summer was dubbed 'brat summer' by the press, with the word 'brat' entering the dictionary as an adjective - all in response to the pop album Brat by singer Charli XCX. In a new mockumentary, The Moment, Charli considers how to follow up on Brat, and how to deal with fame. And Kleber Mendonça Filho's new film The Secret Agent follows a man caught in the turmoil of the Brazilian military dictatorship. With four Oscar nominations and two BAFTA nominations, it's widely tipped to be one of the big winners in this year's awards season. Plus authors Hallie Rubenhold and Jason Sanford tell Tom about a new and troubling marketing scam aimed at authors which promise good reviews and then resort to threats when authors do not respond.Producer: Tim Bano

There has recently been a lot of online conversation about a couple of new stage productions in the UK, both of which were, at the time, in previews.The online criticism of early performances of Dracula starring Cynthia Erivo, and curtain call footage of Legally Blonde on tour starring Amber Davies has reignited the debate about whether or not a show's earliest performances should be criticised.So, here are Mickey-Jo's thoughts as a full-time critic about when it is respectful or appropriate to review a show and how much responsibility falls to a show's producers...•00:00 | introduction02:56 | what are previews?10:38 | when do critics review?20:50 | why is there discourse?32:21 | what is the solution?About Mickey-Jo:As one of the leading voices in theatre criticism on a social platform, Mickey-Jo is pioneering a new medium for a dwindling field.

On February 1, President Trump announced that The Kennedy Center would close for two years for “Construction, Revitalization, and Complete Rebuilding” (capitalization sic). Washington Post art and architecture critic Philip Kennicott sees this as an existential threat to the Center. And: New York Times fashion critic Vanessa Friedman thinks everyone has been misunderstanding the Melania documentary from the get go. It’s less an actual movie, she says, and more the launch of the Melania luxury brand. And finally: Don Glickman was a design professor. He had retired in the late 1990s, and he died last year at 94. And then some people started getting postcards from him — charming, amusing, perfectly Glickmanian postcards.

In today's Daily Fix:Developer AdHoc Studio has released a statement addressing the censorship controversy surrounding the Switch 2 port of Dispatch. AdHoc is taking responsibility for the uproar, saying that their game failed to meet certain Nintendo guidelines, and that it was their responsibility to better convey the message that the Switch 2 port was altered from the PS5 and Steam versions. AdHoc are working with Nintendo to address the issue, but that it could take weeks before changes are made to the game, if any. In other news, Nioh 3 might be making its way to the Switch 2 and Xbox Series consoles, marking the first time the franchise ended up on a non-Sony console. A new trailer for the game specifies that it's a PS5 console exclusive for six months, however no official word on if other ports are coming. And finally, a video game music remix won a Grammy last night over EGOT-holder Cynthia Erivo. Super Mario Praise Break from The 8-Bit Big Band took home the award for Bestr Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals. Another gaming win came from composer Austin Wintory, who won for the soundtrack to Sword of the Sea.

Sinners received 16 nominations; a record-breaking nomination count for the most in Academy Awards history. The supernatural thriller received nominations for best picture; director (Ryan Coogler); actor (Michael B. Jordan); supporting actress (Wunmi Mosaku); actor in a supporting role (Delroy Lindo); and original screenplay. Timothée Chalamet is 30 years and 26 days old, Chalamet just became the youngest male actor to receive three Oscar nominations since Marlon Brando, who achieved this feat at age 29 in 1954. Steven Spielberg has broken his own record for the most Oscar nominations as a producer, bringing his total to 14 with the nomination for Best Picture for the film "Hamnet." One Battle After Another received 13 nods, including Best Picture.The Snubs:The Cold Shoulder: The Biggest Snubs of the 2026 Oscar NominationsThe Wicked Witch of the West... Gone?The biggest shocker of the morning has to be the complete erasure of Wicked: For Good. Just last year, the first installment picked up 10 nominations. This year? Zero. Zilch.Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, who were both nominated for the first film, were completely shut out of the acting categories. Even the music branch turned its back on the franchise, ignoring the two new songs written specifically for the film. It seems the magic ran out for the sequel.Paul Mescal's Shakespearean TragedyIf you were betting on Paul Mescal picking up a nomination for playing William Shakespeare in Hamnet, you lost money today. While the film itself did well—and his co-star Jessie Buckley secured a nomination—Mescal was noticeably absent from the list. It's a tough break for an actor who has been a darling of the awards circuit lately.The Strange Case of Chase InfinitiHere is a genuine head-scratcher: One Battle After Another is a massive favorite, racking up 13 nominations. Yet, its breakout lead actress, Chase Infiniti, didn't make the cut. Some insiders think her limited screen time (she's in the movie for about 30 minutes) might have hurt her chances, but considering she's the heart of the film, her absence in the Best Actress category is glaring.Guillermo del Toro Gets the "Argo" TreatmentThe Academy clearly loved Netflix's Frankenstein—it scored nine nominations, including Best Picture. But they apparently didn't love Guillermo del Toro quite enough to give him a Best Director nod. The Directors branch is notoriously finicky, and this year, they left the beloved filmmaker off the list.Blockbuster FatigueAvatar: Fire and Ash failed to secure a Best Picture nomination, a category the previous two films sailed into easily. It seems voters might finally be feeling some Pandora fatigue.Star Power Didn't Save ThemBeing an A-lister didn't help anyone this morning.George Clooney & Adam Sandler: Their film Jay Kelly was completely shut out. Usually, a Noah Baumbach movie is catnip for voters, but this one came up empty.Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Despite a serious campaign for his dramatic turn in The Smashing Machine, he couldn't crack the lineup.Jennifer Lawrence: She gave a ferocious performance in Die My Love, but the film was likely too gritty and indie for the broader voting body.The show, hosted by Conan O'Brien, airs live on ABC on March 15th.

Plus, It's no secret that President Trump dislikes the late night hosts - who often make him the target of their zingers. Well that battle is now taking a new turn.

Wicked fans reckon there’s trouble brewing behind the scenes, and one tiny detail has sent the internet spiralling. Ariana Grande noticeably stayed silent on Cynthia Erivo’s birthday, and now everyone’s reading way too deeply into it. Is it nothing, or is it the pettiest celeb snub of all time? We unpack the clues and let you decide after you hear what really got fans talking.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Women's bodies are not a trend and they're not up for public debate.With the release of Wicked: Part Two, conversations about the bodies of its stars, including Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo have flooded social media, framed as “concern,” “health,” or “what about our daughters?”In this episode, we unpack why commenting on women's bodies (even when it sounds caring) is still harmful, why women's bodies keep getting treated as public property, and what this moment reveals about where culture is headed.We talk about:Why “concern” doesn't make body commentary ethicalWhy health is not something you can seeWhy women's bodies are never trendsHow these conversations actually impact young girlsWhat we can say instead to our kids, our friends, and ourselvesThis is not a conversation about celebrities' bodies.It's a conversation about our language, our trauma, and our responsibility to do better.If this episode made you pause, reflect, or rethink your language, share it with someone you love.

"Wicked: For Good" is a musical fantasy sequel directed by Jon M. Chu that adapts the second act of the "Wicked" stage musical, itself inspired by Gregory Maguire's reimagining of "The Wizard of Oz." Starring returning cast members Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, and others, the film follows Elphaba and Glinda as they embrace their identities as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. Developed over a decade and split into two films to preserve the story's depth, production faced delays due to the pandemic and the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. Released by Universal Pictures in November 2025, the film grossed $523 million worldwide, earned awards recognition from the Critics' Choice Awards and the Golden Globes, and was named one of the top ten films of the year by both the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute. Ever since its release, the Next Best Picture team has been conducting a series of interviews with many people involved in the making of the film, which we're proud to share with you below. First up, we have my interview with the film's director Jon M.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Chris Heimann, a theatre director, educator, and former leader of the improvisation curriculum at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London. For nearly two decades, Chris has guided actors, leaders, and teams to cultivate presence, spontaneity, and embodied awareness — using improvisation as a pathway into deeper human connection and creative agency.Together, we explore what it means to work with what you've got, how play shapes our creativity, and why presence is perhaps the most powerful skill we have in a world that constantly pulls us away from the current moment.The conversation moves from childhood impulses to leadership, from somatic intelligence to curiosity, and from friction to flow. Chris and I reflect on improvisation as a form of research — a way to understand ourselves, each other, and the stories we co-create.How creative play can lead us to greater awarenessWhy presence is a leadership skillThe promise of any given momentWhy improvisation begins with “working with what you've got”Somatic intelligence and speaking through the bodyNavigating uncertainty: the art of letting goHow “yes, and…” can shift collaboration and leadershipThe difference between performing and researching through playSimple practices to cultivate presence in everyday lifeAbout ChrisDr. Chris Heimann led the improvisation curriculum at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) for 19 years, teaching actors including Cynthia Erivo, Taron Egerton, Amy Lou Wood, and Marisa Abela. He is a two-time Fringe First Award–winning theatre director, and has spent 20 years coaching leaders and teams on communication, collaboration, creativity, and leadership. Chris is now based in Berlin, where he works through his company Spacecraft, helping individuals and organizations cultivate presence, awareness, and creative leadership.WebsiteLinkedIn

A viral clip from Sandringham has American viewers fixated on an unexpected detail: what appeared to be a Buc-ee's plush toy in the crowd behind Prince William and his children during the Christmas Day church walk. The Texas convenience-store mascot has no UK footprint, making its appearance at a royal moment both baffling and instantly memeable, with speculation over how it ended up so close to the royals.We also revisit claims from Rob Shuter that Prince William objected to King Charles including Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie in the Christmas walk, with sources framing the disagreement as a wider clash over judgement and authority.Meanwhile, Kate is being described as an “eternal influencer” after recognition from British Vogue, as commentators point again to the so-called Kate effect on brands.Plus, renewed scrutiny of royal security after an intruder allegedly breached Kensington Palace grounds twice in the days before Christmas and has now pleaded guilty, with former royal protection officials raising questions about why he was able to return.We wrap with honours list headlines including Idris Elba's knighthood and Cynthia Erivo receiving an MBE, a redesigned British passport now bearing King Charles's coat of arms, and a new Amazon Prime Video documentary on the King's environmental work, narrated by Kate Winslet.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Phillip and Eric close out 2025 with a conversation about the best comic of the year, Absolute Martian Manhunter by Deniz Vamp and Javier Rodriguez from DC's Absolute line.

Apparently in movie history, there are only 2 actors to have 3 Number 1 films in a year. This sounds crazy! So Movie Mike investigates to find out if that is actually true and breaks down what actors he thinks have had the single best year run in movies from his research. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Wicked: For Good. Now demonized as the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba lives in exile in the Ozian forest, while Glinda resides at the palace in Emerald City, reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, she'll need to reunite with Glinda to transform herself, and all of Oz, for good. Mike shares why he felt it could have been one movie, Arianda Grande and Cynthia Erivo difference in performances, how it compares to the Broadway musical but why he loves what the franchise has done for the movie theater experience. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Super Mario Galaxy starring Chris Pratt and Anya Taylor-Joy. He shares why he thinks about the new voice actors joining the cast and where it ranks on his list of most anticipated video game movies and his favorite Super Mario games. New Episodes Every Monday!

Sean and Amanda are joined by Juliet Litman and return to the (not so) wonderful world of Oz to cover John M. Chu's ‘Wicked: For Good,' starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. Before diving in, they react to new movie trailers for Charli XCX's ‘The Moment' (1:02) and ‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' (10:54). Then, they discuss ‘Wicked: For Good,' which they found deeply frustrating due to its bizarre story choices and one-dimensional characters (18:22). They hypothesize its potential box office, compare this year's press tour to last year's, and weigh its Academy Award chances (1:07:44). Next, Sean and Amanda briefly examine Clint Bentley's ‘Train Dreams,' starring Joel Edgerton and Felicity Jones, a deeply earnest and sincere portrayal of grief with some beautiful digital photography and an amazing collection of character actors (1:22:55). Finally, Bentley joins the show to discuss his new film and explains why he initially thought the original material was unadaptable, how he put a lot of intent behind capturing the logging scenes in the movie, and shares his feelings on the current state of independent film (1:34:28).
