Creative Space Podcast

With no special guest on the podcast, Rhys and Pippa sit down to talk about a variety of topics which includes what musical we would like to see or be created. 

The two get personal both talk about the journey on how they missed theatre and how Rhys struggled mentally during 2021 and how Creative Space became the idea to bring his love for the arts back. 

Pippa is also our new co-host and is part of the Creative Space Podcast family. 

Happy Easter to everyone!
