Joining Eliott in the Stagey Studio this week is Sally Cookson, Director of 'Jane Eyre' and 'Peter Pan' at The National Theatre, 'The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe' at The Bridge Theatre, and one of Eliott's favourite stage adaptations from a novel, 'A Monster Calls', a Bristol Old Vic and Old Vic 200 production.

In this episode, Sally talks about her journey into theatre, why collaboration in the rehearsal room is one of her favourite places to be, plus what it's been like working with Brook Tate, where Sally is currently directing their Edinburgh Fringe show, Birthmarked. We'll also get to find out just where exactly Sally's Stagey Place is...
