Series 1: Ep 4: In conversation with Katie Mitchell

In this month's episode of 'Half Hour Call' Co-founder and Champion for the East Midlands, Ed Boott interviews Katie Mitchell.  Their conversation explains more about Katie's influences and phases of her work since 1990 to 2021. Katie reminds us all how even the best sometimes struggle, reflecting on her own imposter syndrome feelings and how in her early days she wasn't successful with any of her bursary applications - it wasn't until she set up her own company on the fringe that he career really took off.  This informative and warm conversation with Open Drama UK gives us an insight into Katie's world whilst showing how in awe of the teaching profession she is. "The creativity in a secondary classroom is just as important as an enormous avant-garde production in Berlin!" Katie Mitchell. *Please be aware that there is a quoted swear word within this interview.
