S12E04 - Kites, Trains and Exotic Hotels

from Drewling Samantics · host Drewling Samantics

Kites, Trains and Exotic Hotels   It’s guest week once again for Drew and Sam, and their visitor this time out is the brilliant Tiran Aakel, who is clearly conquering the stage both on tour and in town!   Tiran is a wonderful actor of great depth and character, with a career spanning several decades, but most recently having been involved in some modern classics like The Kite Runner, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and - a show he is hoping he’ll hopefully have the opportunity to revisit in its potential upcoming tour - The Girl On The Train. Not only that, but he, like Drew, enjoys and excels at playing Manuel in Fawlty Towers dinner theatre shows.  Amongst other topics, Tiran talks about the importance and privilege of communicating powerful social and political messages through the medium of performance. His ability has allowed him to take part in some very poignant shows - productions such as The Jungle, which deals with the suffering of refugees and the human condition itself, and others too, that allow audiences to get more than enjoyment alone from theatre experiences.  An actor with heart, commitment and an understanding of just how deeply theatre can influence and inspire, Tiran is a fascinating and intelligent guest, whose visit to Drewling Samantics is one not to be missed!   Social Media Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam Youtube.com/@DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/TiranAakel Twitter.com/TiranAakel  RSS Feed https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss  Music Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.enPing us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!
