It's the first week of Malory Towers rehearsals and just like the first day of school, everyone is feeling a bit anxious and worrying about where to get lunch.

The lift is out of order along with the air-con as we join Emma in a noisy rehearsal room in East London - an insight into the inner working of Wise Children against a backdrop of Harps, Piano Tuners and hand dryers as she introduces us to the cast.

Recorded at ParkFarm/WiseChildren Rehearsals

Hosted by Emma Rice and featuring the original company of Malory Towers.

Produced and Mixed by Simon Baker for Wise Children Limited

First released on Monday 1st July 2019.
