It’s the 50th episode of Curve in Conversation! Thank you to all our listeners who have continued to join us behind-the-scenes at Curve and the fantastic productions that grace our stages. In this month’s episode, we explore the colourful world of brand-new musical INDIGO. Our host Martin Ballard is joined by Katie Cailean who takes on the role of Emma, and The Bill’s Lisa Maxwell who plays her grandmother Elaine. Following three generations of women and looking into themes including Alzheimer’s, Autism and Synaesthesia, hear why this premiere production should be on your to do list this summer. Strictly Come Dancing’s Janette Manrara enters the Razzle Dazzle of CHICAGO which arrives on Curve’s stage this June. Janette speaks of her journey from TV star to theatre debut, and how excited she is to take on the complex role of Roxie Hart. Preparations for our newest Made at Curve productions are well under way! Hear from Nikolai Foster and David Seadon Young of our Christmas musical THE SOUND OF MUSIC, and Cara Nolan’s vision for WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? Lastly, Curve staff member Megan Cliffe returns to the podcast to discuss her journey from Stage Door Reception to the producing and programming department!
