On this episode of Call To Stage, we're joined by the effortlessly cool and funny Ryan Kopel.Ryan has established himself as one of the most exciting young leading men working in British musical theatre today. Having broken through playing the titular role in the UK tour of Dear Evan Hansen in 2024, Ryan has also starred in the acclaimed and Olivier Award nominated London production of Newsies as well as the West End production of Book of Mormon and The Addams Family concert at the London Palladium.On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Ryan talk about the discipline and monk-like lifestyle required to sustain Evan Hansen eight shows a week, the surreal experience of landing a role in Newsies when dancing is firmly not his thing and the joy of discovering straight theatre after years of leading musical roles.There are also stories from Dear Evan Hansen, Book of Mormon, the Addams Family Palladium concert as well as a genuinely wonderful conversation about skincare routines, glow drops, and the unexpected price of a buccal massage!Thanks To Our SponsorsEvery self-made person started somewhere.
