In this unedited bonus episode, I speak with Catrina McHugh from Open Clasp Theatre about creating activist performance with women affected by exclusion. We discuss how the company’s work has been both incredibly local to the North East of England and has also travelled to audiences from New York to New Zealand. We talk about how amplifying often unheard voices can transcend the prison walls and resonate across geographies.
