Arthur Darvill interview: Oklahoma! (i News)

The actor, who’s in the running for an Olivier Award this weekend, talks to Alice Saville about reimagining the classic musical, Doctor Who and West End ticket prices

“I never thought I was a West End musical kind of person,” says Arthur Darvill, sitting in his plushy dressing room, surrounded by cowboy boots and fringed leather finery. “But here we are!”

Here we are indeed. The 40-year-old’s own musical tastes incline more towards Radiohead than Rodgers and Hammerstein, but he has found himself starring in Oklahoma!, the duo’s 40s cowboy musical about two guys fighting over the same girl.
