Gethin Jones finished his run as Prince Gethin in Sleeping Beauty at Cardiff’s New Theatre Cardiff this Sunday, we caught up with the man himself back in November to discuss swapping studio lights for stage spotlights.

Speaking about the role on social media just this week, he said:

"The feeling of being on stage is incredibly special - so immediate and bright! Things don’t always go to plan - My goodness, we’ve laughed so much on and off stage during the past month or so!

It’s completely out of my comfort zone, I’m very grateful to the whole team for the their knowledge, support and encouragement!
