Welcome back to The Theatre Mum!

On episode 2, we're joined by Maddie Bell from OnTheNose Productions. After meeting on the entertainments team at a theme park, we touch on the world of being a mascot performer before getting to know all about co-running a theatre company. We chat about the joys and processes of creating original work, taking shows to Fringe Festivals and how to get funding outside of the Arts Council. It's an hour packed with honest facts, figures and frivolity - not necessarily in that order.
