LISP theatre festival
You may remember our interview with Sharon Sexton in the summer when she told us about plans to stage the first London Irish Short Play Festival. Well, her call for submissions had a great response. Now she and her husband Cillian Donnachadha, who together head the Biscuits for Breakfast Theatre Company, have made their selection. Six plays will be performed at the London Irish Centre in Camden from October 20th for four nights. Two of the successful playwrights – Siubhan McNally and Brendan Kenny came into our studios to talk about the festival. They told Catherine Carroll to expect an entertaining evening with something for everyone – even if you don’t have a drop of Irish blood.

The Fitzrovia Mural
Amber, aka the American Tour Guide in London, used to pass the Fitzrovia Mural everyday without giving it a second thought. Now it is the first stop of her tours of the local area. She introduces us to the history of the fascinating work of art in a public space. Helping her to tell the story are Kristina O’Donnell, a descendant of characters in the mural, and Richard Unwin from Eazl, a creative agency that have been involved in efforts to restore the mural.
This story is part of Camden Tour Guides tales of objects around the borough of Camden.
