Summary

Olly Double interviews Kent Drama graduate Beth Fox about being a Team manager at the Cliffs Pavilion theatre in Southend-on-Sea. Beth only finished her degree a couple of months before this interview – and, indeed, was just two weeks into the job – so it offers a fascinating insight into the very start of a career in theatre. She talks about building up a network of contacts despite not coming from a privileged background or a showbiz family, and gives good advice about making your own luck. She also looks forward to where her career might take her in future, whether into actor training or seeing where her current job might take her. As if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also hear about the highlights of her first fortnight working in theatre, from drag queen lunches to meeting the legendary Paul Chuckle.
