Also in this episode, we're joined by Samantha Lane & Peta Swindall who are artistic director & executive director of The Little Angel Theatre. To mark its 60th birthday, the theatre has announced the first half of its year-long anniversary celebrations. 

The theatre has created a ‘choose your own adventure’-style live digital production of Sean Taylor’s Where the Bugaboo Lives and will reopen its doors for a run of Julia Donaldson’s The Smartest Giant in Town. Additionally, there will be a digital series People Behind the Puppets celebrating 60 years of ground- breaking puppetry design and  ‘magical trees’ will appear throughout Islington this Summer, inspired by a brand-new Joseph Coelho poem, The Wishing Tree.
