The curtain has been raised on a new podcast covering the St Albans theatre scene.
The show forms part of the line-up for The St Albans Podcast with Danny Smith, which launched in April.
The theatre show is hosted by Ben Tiplady, 23, and Susie Wyeth, 38, and features reviews of performances alongside interviews for upcoming shows, previews and debates on topics impacting on the theatrical community.
Host Ben said: "Having been involved in theatre over the past 15 years I've been incredibly impressed with the quality and variety of the theatre on offer in St Albans area.
"I'd love for our show to begin to join the dots and be able to act as a signpost for the amazing work that goes on.
"I've so far been heavily involved with the Abbey Theatre and am looking forward to being exposed to more of the great live theatre that is on our doorstep."
Co-presenter Susie said: "We're really lucky to have a huge range of really great quality theatre in St Albans, but it often surprises me that lots of people don't know how accessible it is.
