In more detail, this week in part 1 of their chat, Tom starts by explaining what stagecraft & upstaging is, the many ways in how acting on stage is different from on-screen acting and his upcoming role as Henry The Fifth in the Shakespearean play of the same name, which then follows onto why Tom enjoys Shakespeare which includes an explanation on iambic pentameter, Shakespeare’s influence on language and more!
