Script In Hand

A podcast for theatre lovers, where two friends and theatre directors delve into plays and talk text. Each week we read, discuss and dissect a new play script. We lust over punctuation choices, pull characters intentions apart, and generally try our darnedest not to pronounce anything incorrectly. Hosted by Lexie Ward & Meg Robinson.

We're clicking our heels together three times and travelling to a completely unknown land. In-Sook Chappell's Bruntwood Prize shortlisted play lifts a curtain to show us the reality of life in North Korea in this heartbreaking yet somehow hopeful love story.

Music By Connor Barton (Sethera Sound Design)
