Katori Hall is a playwright from Memphis, Tennessee, whose story of a Southern strip club and the women who work in it has been adapted for television as a series called P-Valley - an “unflinching and unapologetic look” at the lives of women working at a Mississippi club called The Pynk.
Cinema after lockdown. The government’s recently announced £1.75bn rescue package for the arts is to be spread across the sector, but what is specifically required by the British film industry and cinemas? Why are many cinemas still closed, despite having permission to open from last Saturday? And how can they recover? We speak to Ben Roberts, Chief Executive at BFI, and to film critic Larushka Ivan- Zadeh.
Empty theatres, museums, and galleries: we speak to two artists examining the impact of coronavirus by documenting these deserted spaces. We’re joined by photographer Joanna Vestey, whose photographic series Custodians For Covid is fundraising for theatres under threat, and by artist Eloise Moody, who has produced a series of audio diaries with the caretakers of six museums and galleries across the UK.
