Description

This week on Drama School Dropout I am joined by the amazing, Karen Dunbar! We chat about Chewin’ the Fat, Karen’s place in Scottish comedy royalty, having an aim to be famous, growing up working class in Scotland, starting out as a karaoke host, learning lines, forgetting lines on stage, Blackpool, The Karen Dunbar Show, both of us being typical aries, bringing  characters back after an extended period of time, playing God in Still Game Live, our favourite moments on stage, performing at The Òran Mór, meeting Lawrence Chaney, changing the plot of Hairspray from racial segregation to independence voting, kids playing Borat in primary schools, a musical version of Macbeth with Adele songs, and our favourite Scottish phrases that English people won’t understand.
