Layton Williams: Broadway, RuPaul & Bubblegum Vodka?!

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee kick things off with a decadent, bubblegum-flavoured vodka. But will Alan be able to stomach a drink that reminds him of supermarket own-brand bubble bath?

Elsewhere, Lee is feeling smug after being mistaken for straight - and is thrilled to receive a complaint accusing him of pretending to be gay on stage.

Meanwhile, Alan is left baffled by the term ‘pencil’ when it comes to booking out his diary.

Olivier Award-winning West End and Broadway star Layton Williams (@laytonwilliams) joins the boys for a drink to talk all things Titanique, Billy Elliot and his brand-new one-man show, Layton Live.

Over some very dirty martinis, Layton spills the tea on winning awards, making his Broadway debut, theatre-going etiquette, dealing with people asking for free tickets, the new series of Strictly Come Dancing and performing for one of his all-time idols: RuPaul.

Layton Live kicks off in February 2027. Tickets are available at laytonlive.co.uk.
