New Photos & Interview of Sam Heughan from “The Scotsman”.
Before landing the Outlander role, Heughan was involved in various aspects of youth theatre in Edinburgh where he was encouraged to apply for drama school.
“When I was going through school, I joined the Lyceum Youth Theatre and that kind of cemented it”, he explains. “Through being in and around the building and watching shows, I realised that there was something I really loved about it, so I went into the stage management side. I did a bit in the Traverse where I worked with them on the festival and realised quite quickly that I wasn’t cut out for that but the youth theatre gave me an understanding of theatre and the community involved, and I met a lot of friends there.” CLICK TO READ THE WHOLE INTERVIEW
