"I've had this sense that if you make it in as a brown woman, you have to defend your spot – there's only space for one of us... That's just how deeply we've been conditioned."
In this week’s episode, Samia Djilli, one of the Artistic Directors of Lemon House Theatre, chats to directors Layla Madanat and Janisè Sadik about MENA artists being able to ‘take up space’ in the UK theatre industry. They discuss how far the industry has come and what more it could do to support MENA stories being told on stage, as well as MENA artists being supported off stage. They also chat about the complexities of Arab heritage and how that plays a part in how they as Arab artists tell our stories.

The extracts from Different Sand in this episode were directed by Janisè Sadik, with Iman Boujel playing Linda. The episode was edited by Brigitte Adela.
The music was composed by HALI.
