In the second part of Shine Radio’s rehearsal diary with Em Sefton-Smith, director of Winton Players’ autumn production of Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett (adapted by Stephen Briggs), we find out what happens before the first rehearsal even takes place.

Em talks to Laura Sheppard about working with the set designer to create a practical design, the process of blocking the play in advance, and some of the challenges and excitements of preparing to bring Discworld to life on stage.
