Toni McDonald on BBC Hereford & Worcester

Available for over a year

The Australian composer turned Matilda into one of the world's biggest musicals of the past 20 years and reflects on his new album, full of original pieces. He tells Toni how he's spent his entire life trying to avoid being pigeonholed, as a comedian, actor and songwriter, including huge success with Groundhog Day: The Musical. Tim Minchin reflects on his love for British audiences, including huge success with Groundhog Day: The Musical. The new record, Time Machine, is a collection of tracks which he's only just got round to properly recording. Image credit: BBC/Sarah Louise Bennett
