S1 E1: David Moorst, Actor

In our first episode of the series, actor David Moorst – Puck in The Bridge’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream – shares how an unlikely school musical led to his first spark with theatre, and how that thrill of connection still drives him today. He reflects on making Shakespeare feel new and accessible, the joy (and terror) of performing “with” an audience, and the quiet beauty of that moment when a room of strangers becomes a company. And when it comes to imagining his fantasy production, David’s vision is as warm and witty as he is – rooted in everyday lives, sharp comic timing, and a love for the kind of stories that feel both familiar and extraordinary. It’s a world built on truth, laughter and community – a fitting reflection of The Bridge itself. Hosted by Pauline Fallowell.
