New Soho Theatre Artistic Director….
Lisa Goldman. See here.
She was one of my first writing mentors (at the Soho Young Writers). She has always come across to me as extremely passionate on all levels, particularly politically.
I’m still very interested in everything she does and I couldn’t get any tickets to see her well praised Hoxton Story. It will be interesting to see what she does in a building.
She will probably be the most political and perhaps experimental AD in a prominent UK theatre.
It’s a good choice out of a very difficult selection, I imagine.
I wish her and Soho all best luck and wishes. I don’t think they will need but be prepared for a shake up and for more political theatre.
