This episode is packed full of thoughts and ideas about the role of a theatremaker during a time of crisis. Peru is going through a particularly volatile period of human rights violations, after back in December 47 people were killed during protests. In this episode, Pepa shares with us how her work as an activist is currently running alongside her creativity, her other freelance work and also her basic human needs to take time out to relax, or you know, do a yoga class.
Pepa also shares with us her ethos of "being interested" rather than focusing on "being interesting" when it comes to making your own work, and then her and Emma muse about alternative training structures; what if during your training you followed whatever piqued your interest? From ice skating to break dancing, what would you like to incorporate into your practice?
