This week on Drama School Dropout I am joined by the amazing Jessica Ellis. We chat missing out on a tour due to COVID, owning VHS tapes equating to you being old, working with Kay Mellor on Fat Friends, toxic primary school parents, studying at Italia Conti, students dry humping in the corner of the room, walking down Clapham High Street in practice skirts and shoes, our elf bar flavours of choice, the scary part of leaving drama school and having no work, auditioning for Hollyoaks in London, stealing joggers from Hollyoaks and getting caught with ‘Hollyoaks’ written across the arse of the joggers, nobody being safe in Soap Land, the crazy things you’re not allowed to show on TV, the superstar that auditioned for Hollyoaks and didn’t get it, refusing to include anything about covid in any media and Jess’ new writing project with Kieron Richardson.
