Well when we meet him in the show he's at a point of departure, as most 16 year olds are...you know they're wondering...the world is about to open up to him and he's wondering where his place in it would be, but ultimately what I've learnt actually over the last couple of weeks is that Jamie is, at his core, a really compassionate young man. He has compassion for everybody he just wants to find his place in the world, and he doesn't wanna do anybody any harm...He doesn't want anybody to feel uncomfortable around him. His goal is to be a Drag Queen, that's his sort of life ambition...but I think he's just trying to work out how to go from a boy to a man, really, in the grander scheme of things. I was very much like my character, I was quite geeky, like, we got shushed the other day in a dance rehearsal... and I snitched like "it wasn't me!!" and everyone was like "I can't believe you're a snitch", and I was like such a goody-goody in school. So I just wanted to do well, and basically like my character. I was absolutely nothing like my character...I wasn't a snitch...but I really enjoyed reading, quiet time...I've always been a really old man, even when I was 16. I am like Jamie in the sense that when I was 16 and still now I had a very core, small group of people around me...but I think I was just relatively normal. I hope so! I was quite naughty... I found one of my reports the other day and and just every single subject it was 'should pay more attention' 'stop entertaining the class, she's the class clown'...terrible...terrible at everything aswell...11% in some things. I wasn't focused but I had a good laugh...had a really good time this guy - he's gonna be an absolute breakout... like he's just a revelation. I feel like I should say you...but I'm gonna say...just joy. It's just joyful...hopefully when you leave, you will just be in a state of euphoria and joy. I think you'll definitely feel better about yourself. I think all of the themes in the piece touch everybody - it's not just - it's not even about looking at each character and identifying with them, what everyone is going through is universal and I think it helps actually to watch these people because you think, 'oh it's actually all right to be me and to be different' Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation, full get up, full routine, and I've practiced it many many times I would do Don't Cry Out Loud by Elkie Brooks... I nearly picked that one...Did you? Like mother like son... I have got a Michael Jackson one on the go actually...bit of Thriller and the Vincent Price rap...
