For this Musicals Magazine Podcast, Edward Seckerson talks to Jordan Luke Gage, currently starring in Titanique in the West End.

In a pretty meteoric rise since leaving drama school, Gage has been raising a little hell with characters as diverse as Clyde Barrow in Bonnie and Clyde, JD in Heathers and Marilyn in Taboo. He’s currently aboard HMS Titanic in a show whose French title quickly establishes that this is not the Maury Yeston version. During technical week he talks to Edward Seckerson about all this and more – not least how he and his Titanique co-star Rob Houchen have both now honed their Italian as Fabrizio in Adam Guettel’s The Light in the Piazza.

Titanique is currently docked at the Criterion Theatre, London – for information and tickets, visit https://london.titaniquemusical.com/
