from Up Close with Carlos Tseng · host Noah Ritter

Send us Fan MailAs Game of Thrones: The Mad King continues its 5* rated run at the RSC, Noah Ritter sat down with us to reflect on his early career success. Fresh off his professional stage debut portraying John Lennon in Please Please Me at the Kiln Theatre, Noah discusses the art of stepping into the world of Westeros as a character that's largely existed as a myth in the books and TV series. We also explore his transition from graduating from Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama (RWCMD) to working on high profile projects. We also hear him unpack his actor-director relationship with Dominic Cooke and how they worked together to ground a legendary figure like Rhaegar Targaryen in this epic piece of theatre. In a special new interview, Noah Ritter offers a candid look into his beginnings as an emerging talent in the industry. As the acting landscape continues to evolve and become as competitive as ever, he tells us about early wins - landing an agent early on and getting to do filming work before being given the opportunity to play John Lennon. We hear him reflect on the experience building a strong chemistry with Calam Lynch's Brian Epstein before arriving in Stratford upon Avon to play Rhaegar Targaryen in his RSC debut. It is a thoughtful, insightful conversation with an exciting young talent forging his own distinct path across British stage and screen.
