Glasgow's not a media center. When you're there when you're hanging about you feel quite detached from musical movements or fashions or anything like that. You do feel quite alone in a good way.

I never knew I'd be in a musical let alone win an award for one.

I'm a pretty big dork. It's crazy. I'm one of those people who grew up with all kinds of musicals but I was right at that age where 'Rent' was a big deal for me and for my friends.
