Description

In this episode Laura speaks with Thomas Pondevie, Co-Director of the theatre company, La Compagnie Babel. 
Thomas Pondevie and Elise Chatauret have brought their French production of the play Fathers to the Brixton House theatre. 
The play is a line of enquiry about fatherhood & family, and addresses, 'How can we imagine fatherhood outside of the patriarchy?' 
It is based on interviews (the practice of documentary theatre) and the end result is a very special show with portraits of fathers played by two male actors on stage. 
I hope you enjoy learning about the play, how it was created and the aim of the production.

The sound clips from Fathers in this episode were created by Maxime Tisserand.
