I was recently asked to appear on BBC Radio on the UK to talk about my work helping creatives gain clarity about their work, their purpose and their future. As I explained to presenter Chris Jarvis my work starts with three simple questions:

• Why Did You Start Your Business?

• What Is Your Business

• How Will You Exit Your Business

These three questions establish a narrative structure and make us think in a more wide angle way about what we are doing.

I never talk about specific clients in a way that can identify them but I do give some examples of how this work has helped creatives.

Thank you to BBC Radio Producer Mel Montagnon for inviting and preparing me and to presenter Chris Jarvis for making the interview so easy.

A Swedish man ends up playing Princess Diana - how does that happen?

Writer, Performer, Director and Producer Linus Karp is currently on tour with his solo piece Diana, the Untold and Untrue Story. We had a great chat in March 2023 about what inspires his work, what he might do next and the importance of not trying to second guess an audience. We also talked about gender identity, drag queen story times and how Linus creative work was inspired by a lockdown playreading club.

This is a fascinating interview with a creative who believes in his own identity and draws on that identity to create work that is unique and successful.

 You can catch Linus on tour with Diana, The Untold and Untrue Story on tour in the UK until May 2023 heading to Poole, Belfast, London, Cardiff, Penzance and Norwich and then in August at the Edinburgh Fringe.
