Episode 94 - Shakara Carter

In today’s episode Elaine and Misha chat with the wonderful Holly Shakara Carter. Actress, writer, artists and creator of the powerful piece Tryptic. We discuss everything from ovulation to who do we make our art for. Another fab episode with a fab human. SHAKARA CARTER Shakara Carter Shakara is an actress in training at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, due to graduate in September 2021. Her first solo work - Triptych - recently launched on RCS@Home is a darkly comedic nod to the often-unfathomable forces at play within and around us, and the irreconcilable truth of what makes us flawed and lovable in equal measure. As an actress Shakara has worked with The Arcola, Manchester Royal Exchange, Freedom Studios, SlungLowShorts and Camden People's Theatre and the award-winning Knaive theatre. As a puppeteer she has worked with Nickelodeon, The Little Angel Theatre, Folded Feather and DNA Puppetry. Her international collaboration The Panda Project is currently underway thanks to Arts Council funding and she is due to play Antigone in a modern retelling of the Greek Classic in October 2021.
