Drewling Samantics
Drew and Sam are actors. They haven’t won any Academy Awards yet, and neither of them is in line to be the new James Bond (sorry Sam), but between them they do have over half a century’s worth of experience in the industry. Many months ago a combination of boredom, significantly reduced work opportunities (thanks pandemic!) and overactive and under-stimulated imaginations inspired them to create a podcast, and somehow they’re still at it. Join the Drewling Samantics chaps every Sunday (or download and listen later) as they give an entertaining insight into how their industry works - from modelling to voiceover, theatre to film, and television to streamed media, the gents talk about all areas of performance artistry, giving an insider view that is sometimes humorous, often eye-opening or poignant, and at times just downright strange! With regular guest appearances and the odd special ‘on location’ segment, Drewling Samantics brings something unique and fresh to the world of podcasts from two normal blokes, working in a rather abnormal industry.

Walk the Walk, Talk the Talk
Stepping it up this week with another superb guest, the Drewling Samantics chaps welcome fabulous performer and creative Maria Beadell to the show, to talk about taking to the streets of London! And, while that may sound a little strange, it is actually a pretty accurate description!
Maria has been on an interesting and varied journey to reach her unique sphere of performance. Beginning life as a teacher, travelling to exotic countries, working with improv. companies, and not forgetting the many interactive shows she’s performed alongside both Drew and Sam, now she walks the streets of London, treating tourists, enthusiasts and other members of the public to a historical experience like no other! Maria guides her audiences through the county’s capital, on a tour around some of the most famous (and infamous!) areas of the city. The characters she portrays all have individual stories to tell, either of the locale or about themselves, using the background of London’s streets as the stage. Centred around a perfect blend of well-known women and characters she has created to aid the narrative, Maria tells the tales of London’s most significant and prominent women of the past and present.
Her sense of humour, acting skill and detailed research have made her tours highly successful and increasingly popular, and although, as Maria explains, things don’t always run smoothly (there are many challenging variables to deal with when working in close contact with people and the elements!) the future is certainly bright for this lovely lady and her entertaining experiences. So check out what Maria has to say to the boys, but don’t be surprised when you’re rushing to book one of her tours afterwards!
