We speak to the relentlessly busy british musical theatre writer Dougal Irvine about just how difficult it can be to sustain a career in new musical theatre. We also cover innovation, loving what you do and why giving up isn't an option.

Dischord #15 - Money Money Money (Dougal Irvine)

“The future’s ripe for those who mix their artistry with politics” – yes, in this time of election and referendum, Thos rejoins modern musical theatre master, Dougal Irvine, for a chat about his brand new show, the Busker's Opera – a new take on what is arguably the first ever musical, John Gay’s satirical masterpiece, The Beggar's Opera, but this time with a contemporary feel - and a lot of mayoral skulduggery!

Thos catches up with the multitalented Dougal Irvine to look at the some of his recent successes and to discuss his forthcoming collaboration on Laila the Musical, a new contemporary musical, retelling the greatest love story from the East, Laila and Manju – a story of young love and feuding families and thought to be one of the inspirations for Romeo and Juliet.
