Wednesday, 11 June, 2025
What happens when you mix Julie Andrews, musical theatre, and a dash of cheeky cabaret? This week, Alexa chats to performer and singing teacher Rosie Williamson about her show What Would Julie Do?—a musical comedy cabaret. Rosie shares how she built a heartwarming, hilarious, harmony-filled show that uplifts audiences and champions mental health causes. Plus: perfectionism, parody law, and why your passion project might just be your best work yet.WHAT’S IN THIS PODCAST4:16 What are the first steps to devising your own show? 10:54 How audiences describe ‘What Would Julie Do?’12:58 Performing as a singing teacher18:23 What’s it like working with a friend?20:46 Rights and approvals23:16 How to hire singers26:06 Balancing performing and teaching29:11 Getting the project off the ground33:29 Funding43:42 Should devising be a standard part of theatre training curriculums?About the presenter click HERERELEVANT MENTIONS & LINKSSarah Louise YoungYvonne KennyLeontine HassMatt SamerMindCarers UKDan TurekSinging Teachers Talk - Ep.154 Managing Imposter Syndrome, Low Confidence and Overwhelm as Singing TeachersMandy UKSpotlightThe PheasantryArts CouncilDevelop Your Creative Practice (DYCP)Singing Teachers Talk - Ep.213 Medicine to Music.
