Lead actors Simon Haines, Emily Laing and Joey Phillips drop into Guildhall HQ along with director Rachel Grunwald, to tell us about the end of year production and British première of Marathon ’33 by Broadway and Hollywood star June Havoc.
The actors explain the gruesome story behind Marathon ’33 (including how contestants managed to learn sleep whilst dancing), the technical challenges in putting on the production, the involvement with Guildhall jazz musicians, and the working relationship between director and cast in this truly extraordinary show.
