Listen now
Description
I had a wonderful time chatting to Spike and Fran who are both members of Leeds Arts Cenrtre. Spike and Fran tell me about their upcoming play ROPE, a play by Patrick Hamilton that was further immortalised by the Alfred Hitchock film. ROPE is Spike's directorial debut and he tells me all about what the experience has been like. Fran only moved to Leeds in April and she tells me more about the community aspect of being a LAC member and the character she is peforming as, Leila Arden. Fran chose to feature the really beautiful song "Princess Nokofia" by her good friend Alex Rushfirth. ROPE is on at The Carriageworks Theatre in Leeds from 8th to the 11th November. Tickets for Friday and Saturday night have now sold out. The amazing ROPE poster was designed and created by Mitchell Perry (link to his IG below).   https://www.leedsartscentre.org.uk/ https://www.youtube.com/@LeedsArtsCentre-fn9fk https://www.facebook.com/LeedsArtsCentreLAC https://soundcloud.com/alexrushfirth https://www.instagram.com/alexrushfirth/?hl=en https://alexrushfirth.bandcamp.com/ https://www.youtube.com/user/alexrushfirth https://open.spotify.com/artist/2mQvMxB2F3nLezmhFwCxNu https://www.instagram.com/perrysketches/?hl=en-gb I make no money from this podcast and all I ask is that you enjoy it, tell your friends and if you could leave me a review I would be most grateful.
