Kitchen choreo, West End kids, and a surprise engagement? This one’s got it ALL.

In this feel-good episode of *How Very Hannah*, I’m joined by stagey power couple, Stuart and Francis – the West End performers-turned-TikTok stars behind those iconic kitchen musicals 👨‍🍳🎶

They went viral for turning the chaos of parenting into full-blown musical numbers (complete with props, harmonies and tap breaks in the kitchen), and now they’re bringing that same magic to a *real-life* live show.

We’re talking love at first spotlight, surviving panto with a baby monitor, and raising the best kind of tiny drama queens!! They open up about their journey from the West End to TikTok fame, and how they’re turning all that chaos into their very first live show 💖

We also have a *very relatable* Confession of a Drama Queen, plus a pretty appropriate Hannah’s Hotline !! and test Stuart and Francis’ knowledge on all things stagey & theatre (with the help of my new book 🤭 📖 )

AND… there might be a sparkly little life update from me too 💍 👀

Screaming, crying, throwing up… cause my heart may never Beat Again, I only had One Shot to get this right with my Eternal Love — and now The STUDIO Is Alive with the sound of Aston Merrygold on HVH!!! 😭🎤

Yes, you heard right - JLS royalty turned full-blown theatre kid is here and we’re talking pop stardom, panto panic, parenting chaos, and the unexpected joy of musical theatre. Aston spills all about life after the band, how 101 Dalmatians threw him in at the deep end (literally), and why being the funny one isn’t always as easy as it looks 🐟

We get into the real talk: balancing gigs with dad life, why phones in theatres are the enemy, and how he’s learned to let go and feel the moment on stage 🎭

And of course… chaos ensues in our reverse singing challenge, featuring a backwards rendition of “Everybody in Love” that you honestly need to hear to believe.

Don’t forget to grab your tickets to How Very Hannah Live (if there are any left 👀) and check out Aston’s upcoming Club is Alive tour — links below 💅

From panto mishaps to Drag Race fame, this week’s ep is with iconic diva, Kitty Scott-Claus! ✨

We’re diving into what it really takes to serve on stage (and off) as Kitty shares stories from drama school days (including a rogue pole dancing module?), the wild reality of parasocial fame, and what it felt like playing Princess Diana in drag with the nation watching. There’s backstage gossip, dream role chat, and some hilarious Heather’s memories that made me SCREAM.

We also answer a dilemma from a listener dating someone in the West End (and feeling a *bit* out of place), before diving into possibly the most chaotic improv game yet, which descended into screeches, fake monologues, and Kitty nearly combusting in the best way. SO much fun!!

Don’t forget, if you’ve got a stagey dilemma or confession of your own… or a Hannah’s Hotline you’d love for me to answer, email me at **hello@howveryhannah.com** 💌
