Podcast: Lata Nobes

This is the front of an artist announcement card for Lata Nobes. The design is styled on an American baseball card. The card has a thin white border and the rest of the card is black with turquoise accents. On the left hand corner, there is a triangular cross section of a photo of Lata. In it Lata is standing in front of a painting. She is a British/Indian woman with dark, wavy, shoulder-length hair and eyes. She is looking off to the side, and wearing a pale pink and orange checked shirt. To the right of the photo, there is her name, Lata Nobes, pronouns, her/hers, and a her role, Associate Director. Below this is a short paragraph which says "Lata wants theatre to unmask opporession - and access to be embedded into the practice of more major theatres". In a turquoise rectangle below this, the card says "Gritty, challenging, subversive theatre". Below this is Lata's twitter handle, @Lata_Nobes and a quote saying "Living in the moment as an artist"

Accessible Finance: Budgeting for Access

Budget. It’s a word that strikes fear into the hearts of many people trying to work out how to make affordable work, sustainable work, and accessible work. When I got my head around how I wanted to think about budgeting, it was by going beyond “how am I spending this” and into “how does my…

CRIPticArts: Broadening our Practice

CRIPtic is my baby – but it’s not just mine. It was built as a community project. If I had to estimate the number of people who’ve been involved with it, it would be in the three figures comfortably, and that’s not including audiences. Three years ago I must have been writing the first funding…
