We spoke to Peyvand straight after her show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Peyvand is a performer whose show, DUAL دوگانه is an award-winning solo show made in collaboration with a multi-national team featuring drag, animation, and the voice of Pedar (if you know, you know). It’s a show about being British, Iranian, stateless, as well as punky, mischievous and dangerously political.

We talk about the show, cats and Oi! and punk music!

Check out episode #17 of the Vandal Factory podcast (titled The Seeds and the Tools) to hear Peyvand’s song choice and more discussion about art and activism.
