Episode notes

Succession writer Miriam Battye and award-winning director Katie Posner join us to talk about their new show A Strategic Love Play at the Soho Theatre. They reveal their worst dates, why they think the pursuit of romance can be so exhausting, and discuss how the lack of funding and arts in schools is blocking many young writers.

We review I Wish My Life Were Like A Musical at Wilton’s Music Hall, and Candy at Park Theatre.

Plus, if a critic judges the content of a show on personal opinion, is it censorship? Also, on-sale tickets for Spirited Away at the London Coliseum.
