SPECIAL - Meet 'The Purple Princess'
Episode 1
Thursday, 20 May, 2021

Our Co-Founder Matt chats with Indiana Lown Collins, director of our latest show The Purple Princess, and actors Tom Capper and Isabelle Hart. The show raises awareness of epilepsy, and is primary schools in Guildford this May and June, including two free public performances in the Castle Gardens on 29 May. The show has been inspired by the real-life experience of Indiana, who has uncontrolled epilepsy and experienced a seizure on a train, while fellow passengers were unable to help her. To engage younger audiences, the play, written by Ant Stones and designed by Ice Niemz, and featuring actors Hassan Maarfi and Emily Juler, merges modern life with fantasy creatures.
