A man who can only be described as musical theatre royalty, Michael Ball made his West End debut in 1985 as Marius in the original cast of Les Misérables. He went on to play the lead role of Alex Dillingham in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Aspects of Love in both the West End and on Broadway. He's appeared in a long string of musicals covering all parts of the repertoire – The Phantom of the Opera, Sweeney Todd, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Chess, Sunset Boulevard, even going full drag for Hairspray. He's recorded 27 albums, including 6 number 1s, not including the 12 cast recordings he's a part of.

He shares behind-the-scenes stories about the show's early development, the camaraderie among its global cast, and how the evolving production has stayed relevant over four decades. Michael opens up about personal challenges, including a battle with stage-related anxiety early in his career, and how he overcame it with support from Cameron Mackintosh and others. We also hear about his success as a solo artist, his collaborations with Alfie Boe, and his ventures into songwriting.

Clive hosts Loose Ends with an audience in London this week with a set of guests with a serious work ethic and willingness to try new things in the name of entertainment. The chart topping superstar and award winning actor Michael Ball is now also a best selling novelist. Can life backstage really be as chaotic as this page-turner set in theatreland suggests? Hollie McNish is that rare thing, a best-selling poet who also likes to make people laugh. Fresh from entertaining Swiss school children with her work, she'll be discussing her latest collection Lobster (and other things I'm learning to Love), the follow up to Slug (and other things I've been told to hate). And Dr Who and Ballet Shoes actress Pearl Mackie on her new venture - a true crime podcast called Theatre of Crime, investigating famous murder mysteries with a touch of audio drama. Comedian Pierre Novellie also co-hosts podcasts, alongside names like Frank Skinner and Phil Wang. But he's going it alone in a new show - Must We? - a sell out Edinburgh Festival hit that makes comedy out of Cargo Cults, neurodiversity and quirky obsessions. Plus, music from the English folk star Sam Lee, who is Artist-in-residence for a year of environment-themed events - Earth Unwrapped - at Kings Place in London.

This week, over four years later, a report from the Charity commission concluded that Captain Sir Tom Moore's daughter and her husband had committed “serious” misconduct and had gained “significant” financial benefit from links to that charity.

The family say "that there has never been any misappropriation of funds or unauthorised payments from the charity's bank account, by any member of our family.Last year, Manveen spoke to Times social affairs editor James Beal about the whole affair.

His forthcoming debut album for Westway Music was recorded live at London's Cadogan Hall and finds him carving a path through some of Musical Theatre's most iconic outsiders, from Shrek to Phantom. He talks to Edward Seckerson about the journey so far and the way ahead.

Somewhere beyond the barricade, is there a world you long to see? There's no more overtly theological (or more popular) musical than Claude-Michel Schönberg & Alain Boubil's 1980 Les Misérables, based on Victor Hugo's 1862 novel. From Valjean and Javert to Eponine and Fantine, this musical crams more pathos, prayer, and bad wigs into three hours than any other musical we know. Do you hear the people sing? _________________________________________ We talk about: Prologue (the Bishop) / Stars / Javert's Suicide – Javert, the police inspector, embodies a law-and-order version of the Christian gospel (shout-out to our Jansenist followers!) – and ultimately, the mercy he is shown destroys him. Are these competing atonement theories, or is there more subtlety in Les Mis' treatment of the Christian gospel and its consequences? I Dreamed a Dream / On My Own / A Little Fall of Rain – Fantine gets one, brief, shining moment before she dies (it's a weeper), and Eponine stands in for every alto who dreams of being the soprano – and then she dies, too. Why do most of the women in Les Mis end up dead? Turning, Turning – "What's the use of praying if there's nobody who hears it?" In a musical where women are mostly prostitutes or virgins, the women's chorus gives voice to one of the show's darkest and most provocative theological questions. Bring Him Home / Do You Hear the People Sing? – What does an evangelized life look like on the ground – and what does “somewhere beyond the barricade” really mean? _________________________________________ You'll hear Colm Wilkinson, Phillip Quast, Lea Salonga, Michael Ball and Judy Kuhn from the 1995 “Dream Cast Recording.” You'll also hear Anne Hathaway sing “I Dreamed a Dream” from the 2012 film soundtrack because she won an Oscar for it, and attention must be paid. _________________________________________ Never miss an episode! Sign up for our email list to get updates when new episodes are released, info about upcoming special events, and more. _________________________________________ Check out some of our all-time favorites!

Michael Ball, president and lead portfolio manager at Weatherstone Capital Management, says that while the economy appears to be headed for a soft landing, that smooth ride and the first rate cuts have already been priced into the bond market, which means that bonds are not giving much cushion right now against any softness that could lead to a recession. He notes that higher quality bonds in floating-rate bank loans, short-term high yield and other niches are strong values in current conditions, especially when deriving income from sources like dividends is pricey, given stock market valuations. George Kinder, president, The Kinder Institute of Life Planning — a pioneer in the "life planning" realm of financial planning — discusses his latest project, a self-published book about achieving balance and happiness in life, called "The Three Domains of Freedom: Each Moment is Yours, Your Life is Yours, Civilization is Yours." Plus, Mark Yusko, chief investment officer at Morgan Creek Capital Management, discusses tactically using ETFs in the Market Call.

The latest guest on our Bred a Blue podcast series is former Everton reserves goalkeeper, Jamie Speare. By his own admission, the mention of his name to Toffees of a certain age will only prompt the response ‘his name rings a bell', but in the mid-late 1990s, Speare was one of a number of young goalkeepers waiting in vain for Neville Southall to give them a sniff of first team action! It never happened but Speare and the Blues legend struck up a friendship that has endured to this day. It wasn't all plain sailing initially though. “Neville pushed me to the point that I nearly quit three weeks into the first month of my YTS,” Speare says. “He was giving that much stick out and I really didn't know how to take it. My mum took it up with the Club, but Neville said to me: 'If I didn't like you, I wouldn't bother you,' and I thought ‘fair enough.' “We got on great and still do. He drove all the way from Kent for my wedding, which he didn't need to do.” Speare played youth team football with Graham Allen, Jon O'Connor, Gavin McCann, Jamie Milligan, John Hills, Phil Jevons, Michael Branch, Michael Ball, and Richard Dunne, all of whom progressed to play senior football. Speare came close, but just not close enough. He played in a friendly against Aberdeen, made the odd substitutes bench in the Premier League and was in Joe Royle's squads for the ECWC ties against Reykjavik and Feyenoord in 1995. The closest that he got to a senior appearance was against Blackburn Rovers, but it wasn't as a goalkeeper! “It was at Ewood Park and Anders Limpar went down injured,” he explains. “Joe had used all his other subs so he told me to get warmed up. Anders got back up, so I never got on!” In this Bred a Blue conversation, Speare speaks openly about being released by Everton and talks us through his subsequent career – which included European football with Cwmbran Town, more than 300 appearances for Accrington Stanley and a short spell at Sligo Rovers. These days, Speare in the assistant manager of Northern Premier League Division One West team Nantwich Town, after being set on his coaching career by a PFA funded course. It's another fascinating story from a young man still involved in football after an Everton Academy upbringing. Don't miss the incredible story of the dramatic and historical Everton message that he mistakenly pulled off the fax machine at Bellefield while waiting for one for himself!

Shaun is a West End veteran, having played Mufasa in the Lion King for over 16 years. He's also a soul and RnB artist who has recorded six critically-acclaimed solo albums, and sung with stars including Beverley Knight, Angie Stone and Erykah Badu, as well as touring with Michael Ball and Alfie Boe. On today's podcast, he shares his story of getting into the creative arts industry via his old school friend, Idris Elba, how his Christian faith keeps him grounded, and the importance of having a sure and certain identity in an ever changing world

The latest guest on our Bred a Blue podcast series is former striker Phil Jevons. Jevons joined the Everton Academy as a schoolboy and went on to make nine senior appearances under Walter Smith. He recalls his early days at Netherton and Bellefield when the ‘friendly and challenging environment' helped him develop, playing alongside the likes of Leon Osman, Franny Jeffers, Danny Cadamarteri, Michael Ball, Richard Dunne and Jamie Milligan. Jevons also played against international footballers when he reached the reserve team: “We played Manchester United at Old Trafford and they had Scholes, Jordi Cruyff and Solskjaer.” The Liverpool-born centre-forward helped Everton to win the FA Youth Cup in 1998 and the FA Premier Reserve League in 2001 – and in between he made his senior debut away at Blackburn Rovers. "I'd been top scorer for the reserves for three years on the run, so I felt like I was ready,” Jevons said. He went on to have a hand in the Everton goal in a 2-1 defeat: “I played an early ball to Don Hutchison and he found Bakayoko who scored.” The turn of the century was a challenging time to be a young striker at Everton because the competition was intense. Jevons was battling with Duncan Ferguson, Franny Jeffers, Kevin Campbell, Nick Barmby, Ibrahim Bakayoko and Danny Cadamarteri for a starting role. It was the subsequent arrivals of Joe-Max Moore and Mark Hughes that convinced Jevons that his future lay beyond Goodison Park “Joe-Max Moore was a good player and a great lad but I didn't think he was any better than I was,” he says. “But my squad number went up from 20 to 26 so I had an inkling!” Jevons left Everton with no regrets and during the podcast conversation he reveals the player who had the biggest influence on him during his time with the senior squad. “He was fantastic with me. He was the ultimate professional, fit as a fiddle. He told me how to live my life, how to eat and how to train.” He left Everton in 2001 and joined Grimsby Town, for whom he scored a never-to-be-forgotten League Cup winner at Anfield against Liverpool! “I still get Evertonians coming up to me to talk about that goal!” Jevons went on to have personal and team success with Yeovil Town and Bristol City before winding down his playing career and moving into coaching – starting off at the Everton Academy where he was involved in the development of Kieran Dowell, Nathan Broadhead, Liam Walsh, Tom Davies and Calum Connolly. Jevons left Finch Farm to join Sunderland and he speaks honestly and with clarity about the ruthlessness of senior coaching environments. It's another fascinating football story that has its roots at the Everton Academy.

Michael Ball is perhaps aptly number three in our Goodison Park: My Home series as he joins Chris Beesley in the ECHO's Royal Blue studio to look back on his playing career. The lifelong Evertonian explains how he grew up close to Goodison and attended matches regularly from a young age before coming up through the club's junior ranks and making his senior debut as a 17-year-old under caretaker manager and fellow Scouser Dave Watson in 1997. Ball admits he defied doctor's orders to play his part in a second ‘Great Escape' under Howard Kendall the following year but after battling back from injury problems and Walter Smith signing a clutch of other left-backs to be named the club's player of the year in 2001, he reveals that being told Everton had accepted transfer offers for him that summer when he thought he was on the brink of being offered a new contract with his boyhood team felt like “a dagger in the heart.” Now back watching the Blues from Goodison's stands as a fan again and offering hard-hitting views as a weekly ECHO columnist, Ball's candid opinions make for yet another passionate, lively and fascinating discussion.

Season Two of BALLS rolls along with tonight's Episode 2.9 -- MIC BALL. After scoring a lead potentially tying Michael Ball's murder to organized crime, the Boyz pull up on Rickshaw Rick's open mic, hoping to keep Uncle MO-- as in, momentum-- alive at Bucky's Den, a local spot for brews and sometimes laughs. Featuring the Voices of Tim Rager and Alex Delesky, with Damian Rucci as RICKSHAW RICK and Mike Cava as CRAIG KILT and "ZETTA MARU"; plus a special guest cameo by Robert Cabell as BOB, a young caller. MIC BALL also features "Tale of the Phantom Shitter", written and performed by Damian Rucci as Rickshaw Rick. Keep an eye out next week for DRIVE-THRU BALL, but for now, and as always, COME... COME... COME... HAVE A BALL! All praise and thanks due to ANCHOR, THA GOD HEAD.
