1. How do you get yourself ready for the stage?
**Richard**: I usually listen to music to create a fun vibe in the dressing room. I also mentally go over the track that I’m going on if I’ve been swung on that day. Lastly, I pray that I have a fun and safe show.
**Thomas**: I don’t have a routine per se, but I always make sure I’m vocally and physically warm. I like to have a hot drink and some sort of fruit before the show. I’m also the only cast member that uses their own hair in the show, so it takes me a while to style it - loads of hairspray!
2. If you weren’t playing your current role, who else in the show would you like to play?
**Richard**: I’d love to play Roger if I were a little younger. His energy is infectious, and he has some great comedic moments.
**Thomas**: One of my current tracks is Richard Bullock, and that is a role that I would love to play, not just as a swing. Or Ike Turner.
3. What's your favourite autumnal treat?
**Richard**: 28% white hot chocolate from a shop called Knoops!
**Thomas**: I love hot chocolate and sitting in front of a roaring fire!
4. Speaking of treats, what are you hoping to treat yourself to this Black Friday?
**Richard**: I would like to treat myself to a new cologne and a PS5.
**Thomas**: It’s tricky, but probably bits and pieces for my kitchen, as I’m currently having it renovated.
