  • S10 Ep2: Jack Nicholls talks to Ishy Din
    Feb 6 2026
    Jack Nicholls is a writer and poet. As a playwright, he has twice been a member of the Royal Court Writers’ Group, with readings of his work staged at the Royal Court and Northern Stage, and one play longlisted for the Bruntwood Prize. After graduating from the BFI Script Lab, he wrote and directed the BFI Network short, “Nettle Day,” a primary school-set folk horror, which premieres soon at the BAFTA and BIFA-qualifying Manchester Film Festival. He was twice one of the winners of the National Poetry Competition, and his poems have been published in Poetry Review, PN Review, The New Statesman, The Rialto, and in The Telegraph as a Poem of the Week, among other magazines. He comes from Cornwall and lives in Manchester, where he works as a tutor and runs the cult comedy night, “Title Fight.” His debut play, The Shitheads is playing in the Royal Court's Theatre Upstairs from 6 Feb - 14 Mar, as part of the 70th Anniversary Season.

  • S10 Ep1: Luke Norris talks to Simon Stephens, with 'noush notes' from Anoushka Warden
    Jan 22 2026

    It strikes me that the working life of playwright and actor Luke Norris may be built on two foundation stones.

    I have long been taken by the idea that the county of Essex is a perfect breeding ground for writers and for playwrights in particular. The county that gave us Kenny Emson and Rebecca Prichard, David Eldridge and Sarah Kane is striking for the diversity of its economic and social geography. All kind of people come from and move through Essex. Romford, the Havering town that Norris was born in is the quintessence of the county. A market town for eight hundred years it brings together, in its cauldron of booze and nights out and transport routes and good shopping, exactly that clash and diversity and contradiction that energises a writers imagination.

    This podcast was produced with support from the original Playwrights Podcast team Simon Stephens and Anoushka Warden.

    Sophia Chetin-Leuner is a writer from London.

    Her work for theatre includes THIS MIGHT NOT BE IT, an unflinchingly human look at NHS mental health services, which was short listed for the Women’s Prize for Playwrighting in 2020, followed by a sell-out run at the Bush Theatre in 2024.

    Sophia’s play PORN PLAY, which she begun writing whilst studying in New York, will debut at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs in November this year, directed by Josie Rourke and starring One Day’s Ambika Mod.
