I absolutely LOVE this! Lucy Kirkwood should have a podcast. She's a got a deeply intelligent and compelling way of sharing the work of her colleagues. Can you add catalogue links? I went to the Samuel French/Concord site and couldn't find In Arabia We'd All Be Kings.
This is such a good concept Royal Court! I did the course with sami Ibrahim and great to see him talk about all the plays he taught us. I hope you'll have Lucy on the Playwrights Podcast soon x
Thanks for the recommendations. I love anything set in New York. I’m in the US, and a UK friend sent me a link to watch Maryland. I loved Zawe Ashton and Hayley Squires’ performances. It was a tough watch, but so important. I watched it twice.

Makes me want to read and re-read these plays - which, I suppose, is the point. Thanks.
