Don’t Think, Act! is a podcast for actors by actors where they can have free exposure talking about their craft, inspirations and acting goals! Let's get the business to know you better.
Inspired by Inside The Actor's Studio & Actors on Actors I’m keen to create a resource for performers of all levels, to learn from actors of all levels.
The business changes all the time and I think it would be great to have peers talking about their feelings; methods; offer inspiration on coping in a competitive field, and how they prepare for their craft.
I’m fascinated as to why we do what we do, and how we can help each other on our journeys.
I also love a cringe worthy audition story!
If you're an actor, and love talking creativity, I’d be honoured to have you take part:

Gary Turner is an actor on stage and screen, known for playing Carlos Diaz in Emmerdale and more recently voicing a variety of characters in the Doctor Who Podcast Series.
We get talking about how doing drama saved us from bullying; how idolised award winning actors leaves the rest of us behind, this leads to some hot takes on some iconic performers, and a hot take of my own about the industry.

3 Star Richards
Paul Richards is a drummer/drum teacher, comedy writer/performer (for theatre), playwright and novelist based in Cambridge. 42, lanky, can’t grow a beard.
As a writer/performer he has taken countless (well, 34) shows to the Edinburgh Fringe, tours the UK frequently going through quite a lot of cars and has had some quite nice reviews in the process. He talks very fast, usually about his love of Ginsters slices and often tries to justify it all as theatre. His 2018 play won an award, with his 2019 (but still touring…) show, Harvey Greenfield is Running Late picking up national acclaim. The feature film version finally went into production in 2021, with Paul once again taking the title role alongside Mr Motivator, Liz Barker (Blue Peter), Norman Lovet (Red Dwarf) and many others.
