Last week, we sat with down with Mojisola Kareem; Artistic Director of Utopia Theatre to discuss it's latest production Crown of Blood, a Yoruba retelling of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, starting its run at Sheffield Theatres. We discussed Kareem's professional journey, alongside the themes and process behind putting a play like Crown of Blood together. 

The play, originally written by Arthur Miller in 1947, follows a family dealing with the loss of a family member as well as wartime secrets amongst them that become unveiled.

We speak to the screenwriter of Mr Loverman, Nathaniel Price. His earlier credits include Noughts & Crosses (BBC), Tin Star (Sky) and The Outlaws (BBC/Amazon). We spent some time discussing being part of BAFTA’s Breakthrough cohort this year, his experiences with screenwriting for Mr Loverman and other hurdles that he encountered on his journey.
