Yet he hasn’t watched one on stage for years. “These days,” he says, “I feel constantly failed by them. I stopped paying to see musicals in the days of the band biopic musical, because I found them really awful.” As with all his roles now, Flynn didn’t so much think of his latest part’s character, but about his rhythm: the tempo and pace with which he moves. It might be an unconventional approach to performance, but to hear Flynn talk about it, it’s obvious – at least to him. “I love breaking down characters in terms of rhythm because rhythm is a thing that defines us,” he says. “The way we move is how we meet the world.”Flynn’s father, Eric, was an actor in musical theatre, introducing his son to both music and acting at a young age. Yet his father’s greatest desire, Flynn says, was that none of his children follow in his footsteps. In this he did not succeed: both of Flynn’s older brothers and his sister are actors.

Lost In The Cedar Wood

Like those gatekeepers of Queen and Bowie, he briefly pondered his legacy (“Some of the songs I wrote when I was 20 years old…”), but in the end said yes on one condition: under no circumstances, he told them, would he play the lead role. They agreed. It went to Poulter instead. Flynn was longlisted in the Evening Standard Awards and the What's On Stage Awards for best Newcomer for his role in The Heretic in 2012. [30] He was nominated for an Olivier Award for his role in Jerusalem the same year. [31] He won a commendation in the 2012 Ian Charleson Awards for his role as Viola in Twelfth Night at the Globe Theatre.
