Returning to St Paul’s Church in the heart of Covent Garden, award winning theatre company Iris Theatre will showcase an eclectic line up of live outdoor performance as part of their Summer Festival. A mixture of music, theatre and new work, the festival champions and celebrates performance in a time of uncertainty. Taking part in this summer’s event, writers Asa Haynes and Jesse Bateson will showcase their work in progress Words I’ve Said, a play exploring themes of family and loss. Ahead of the festival, Asa tells us more about his inspirations for the show, writing the show during this unique time and what audiences can expect.
“A movement of mothers, moms and mamas spreading the message that you don’t have to be perfect, and sometimes being good enough is best”, The Good Enough Mums Club are a collective of mothers within the arts creating a safe space for shared experiences of motherhood to be explored, with the hopes of inspiring and uplifting others. Currently using this time to further develop their musical of the same name, the addition of The Good Enough Mums Club Podcast aims to offer an extension of the efforts of the collective and musical, and will also showcase new music from the show. The show’s creator Emily Beecher tells us more about the podcast and the empowering team of mothers behind it!
