This week, Amy speaks to a pair of local heroes in Edinburgh theatre: Director Flavia D’Alvia and playwright Jen McGregor. Hear them discuss the highs, lows and hard work they each put into their plays, and the obstacles they’ve had to overcome in order to get where they are today.

Fancy context: Miriam and Amy meet one morning and are ready to talk about literally two ends of the performance scale - drag race's iconic Katya LIVE and Local Hero. There are opinions, lols, and apologies for all the slurping. Between that, there's the above interview. Enjoy!
