‘Traits of a VERY good friend with Stef Smith’ This week Miriam sits down with her pal Stef. (Look. I can’t edit my friend - I’m sorry, so this is the pretty much unedited chat between two old but VERY YOUNG AND HOT pals.) Stef Smith is a playwright whose work includes Swallow, Human Animals, A Doll's House, Roadkill, Girl In The Machine, Enough to name but a few current and prolifically touring plays. In this week's Don't Speak we cover our experiences at Queen Margaret University Edinburgh, Stef’s work so far and to come - namely Ibsen’s A Doll’s House which is coming to the Citz Theatre Glasgow this year. Also covered with increasing speed (as the two chatterers had a very strong coffee to kick off): wine in theatre and women’s relationship with the hallowed drink, Nora, Cher, Bandersnatch, cats, OITNB, writing processes, aquariums, Love Actually ‘stupid wonderful film’ - social media, Red Dead Redemption as an iconic cultural experience, and the two women's friendship. We really hope you enjoy listening as it’s bloody amazing to watch one's friends soar in their chosen field of work. Love you Stef! This week’s podcast is not sponsored by Hobnobs or sudafed. BUT WE’D WELCOME THAT.
