So long, farewell to our dear viewers and listeners. It has been an honour and pleasure for us to host 6 episodes and 8 minis of Strangers By Nature. In this last episode, we recap our fav memories, highlights and share our biggest learning moments and struggles. Setting up this podcast wasn’t the easiest thing for us and we weren’t always excited but we are proud of what we created, the relationships we formed and the questions we got to ask. We are hopeful that our passion for inclusion and excellent work within and beyond the Warwick student body will be continued and improved upon by two new hosts who are crafting a brand new podcast. Please support them the way you supported us. More info to come!

Eurocentrism has always been a point of discussion in Theatre Studies courses in UK universities. In this episode, Amelia and Talya sit down with Getrude, the 2022 African Women Playwrights Network artist in residence at the University of Warwick. This is our insightful conversation about the importance of studying African theatre, theatre in Zimbabwe, creating new work, and paving the way to your future.

We discuss the reality of going to the theatre. What do you do when your friend takes a BeReal during a show you spent months creating? Why is the seat right next to yours £10 cheaper? The difference between the women's and men's toilet queue is so frustrating!
Share your experiences with us. We want to hear the good, bad and ugly.

It's all about anticipating change, experimentation, collaboration and not waiting till you're 'qualified'. Schedules are key. If it sounds overwhelming, that's okay! We're here to walk you through what we have learnt from various creative processes.

Casting has always been a complex issue. Coming from four completely different backgrounds, Amelia, Talya, Emily, and Fikayo knew a conversation about representation in the uni theatre scene and industry at large would be challenging. This is our candid conversation on nepotism, the advantages and disadvantages of being from the global majority, and the importance of authenticity.
Special thanks to our lovely guests, Emily Rutherford and Fikayo Falade <3
