“I never played a leading lady because I was a little chubby” Jodie Prenger has been a star on both stage and screen. In this episode of Events That Made Me, Jodie reveals how her love for entertainment started with Drag Queens in Blackpool.  Jodie tells Liz how winning I'd Do Anything in 2008 launched her career in theatre as she played Nancy on the West End, and eventually led to her current role on Coronation Street (even though she didn't even audition.) Liz Taylor's 30-year career in event planning has built an impressive portfolio of events, including celebrity weddings, charity fundraisers like Children in Need with Gary Barlow and huge gala dinners such as the Winter White Gala at Kensington Palace for HRH Duke of Cambridge, as well as the Manchester United Champions League winning after party in Moscow and Coronation Street's 40th-anniversary celebrations.

Glenda Shuttleworth first set foot in Weatherfield last August, and for Jodie Prenger, it's been a real whirlwind of a year!

If anyone's seen it all in theatre it's Nick Allott, who spent 40 years with Cameron Mackintosh, running it for 20. This week we chat to Nick about theatre's glory days, from Cats and Phantom to Les Misérables and Hamilton. But he also sheds sobering light on how devastating the pandemic has been for the industry as theatres went dark for the longest time in their histories. As the sector slowly starts to recover, Nick looks to the future while regaling us with a host of hilarious, entertaining anecdotes ranging from Princess Diana doing the splits in his office to Andrew Lloyd Webber drenching Barbra Streisand's canapés in champagne. He also offers us a backstage pass to the real stories behind the headlines – why did Elaine Paige take over from Judi Dench in Cats? Why was Martin McCutcheon so panned in My Fair Lady? Why did losing out to Jodie Prenger in the 2008 BBC Series I'd do Anything ultimately catapult Jessie Buckley to stardom? What's Hugh Jackman really like? How did Nick end up with a gun in his fridge? Listen in to hear what it's really like to live your life behind the scenes of London's leading West End theatres. Produced by Audio Coast
