Summary

In the first of our series celebrating International Women's Day 2019, Hannah went to meet writer Lisa Holdsworth to talk about her new play Black Teeth and a Brilliant Smile, based on the life of working class playwright Andrea Dunbar, who died aged 29. They talk Rita, Sue and Bob Too - including that controversial ending - how Andrea's life and work bled into each other, and the barriers working class youngsters face when entering the arts. More information about Lisa's new play can be found here: https://www.freedomstudios.co.uk/production/black-teeth-and-a-brilliant-smile/ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
