60 - Metamorphosis
•
We're still in COVID lockdown and so we're once again recording remotely and discussing the best of online theatre, including Arthur Pita's strange and sublime dance piece Metamorphosis streaming on the Royal Opera House YouTube channel. We discuss the upcoming slate of online shows from The National Theatre, Alan Bennett's new and upcoming Talking Heads series, and some cover some of our favourite Instagram content of the past few weeks from Britney Spears to SIX the musical creators Marlow and Moss.
