Description

Fresh from TEDxButeStreet — literally an hour after leaving the Senedd — Chris and Jak dive into one of the busiest, most meaningful weeks they’ve had in Welsh arts.

This episode covers:

• TEDxButeStreet: mentoring, organising, and platforming Welsh voices
• Rocky Horror at the New Theatre
• A deconsecrated church photo call
• Barry Pride and the realities of grassroots organising
• Queer Icons cabaret
• Why UK art is still too London‑centric
• How to decentralise culture and support Welsh creatives

Warm, honest, political, and full of community spirit — this is Pain in the Arts at its best.
