3: mandla rae

from Somewhere: for us · host Jules Stapleton Barnes

Storytelling is messy and so are mandla's watermelons. Join Jules and mandla as they chat about mandla's first solo show and Scottish debut, 'As British as a Watermelon', the importance of queer friendships and how language can provide a necessary layer of protection when sharing a story like mandla's. About mandla rae: mandla is agender and has no pronouns. Raised (by queer friends) in London and now based in Manchester, but would rather be in Scotland. So mandla tells me... as british as a watermelon features at the Edinburgh International Festival 23-26 August - https://www.eif.co.uk/events/as-british-as-a-watermelon This podcast has been supported by the Year of Stories 2022 Community Stories Fund.
