The Legacy Tapes: Amber Massie-Blomfield and Brian Logan

"I love those nights when it's something we've programmed that is so bonkers and far out, and i just don't feel like there's many other places in London where this could happen. I think that's exactly what we exist to do." Amber Massie-Blomfield, executive director of Camden People's Theatre. Rebecca Atkinson-Lord talks to the duo who run Camden People's Theatre in north London: Brian Logan, artistic director, and Amber Massie-Blomfield, executive director. They chat about what it's like to run a building together, how the radical fringe theatre is bringing discussions about gender and diversity to the fore through theatre, and how to dismantle the patriarchy in three weeks.
