Katherine Soper and Daniel York Loh in conversation

Royal Court Playwright's Podcast

“One of the things that I was thinking about is that, conspiracies just tend to take on the kind of anxieties of the age that they’re conceived in.”

Living Newspaper Clippings, is a series of conversations between some of the writers and artists who are creating Living Newspaper at the Royal Court Theatre.

In this episode, writers Katherine Soper and Daniel York Loh talk about the the role of disinformation, conspiracy theories, and social media, and how this influenced their pieces in Edition 1 of Living Newspaper.

You can watch extracts from performances of The Con-Troll Room by Katherine Soper and hungry for a lie by Daniel York Loh at royalcourttheatre.com/living-newspaper-clippings.
