S01 E36 -Lara Parmiani \ Artistic Director, LegalAliens Theatre.
Subscribe on Substack, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube (with subtitles) – Applied Theatre Podcast In this episode I speak with Lara Parmiani, Founder and Artistic Director of LegalAliens Theatre, a migrant-led Theatre of Sanctuary based in Tottenham, North London. Since 2012 LegalAliens has created physically driven, politically engaged theatre platforming migrants and refugees as artists, participants and collaborators. Their Tottenham Project, running weekly since 2018, offers free theatre training for refugees, asylum seekers and migrants at the Engine Room in Tottenham Hale. We speak on the occasion of Ali in Wonder(Eng)land, playing at Jacksons Lane on 14th and 15th July, a reimagining of Alice in Wonderland devised with and performed by an ensemble of migrants and refugees. Ali arrives in a surreal version of England full of rules that keep changing, interviews with no right answers, and helpful people who make everything worse. It's Carroll's Wonderland, just with better paperwork. We discuss: - The evolution of LegalAliens from a professional company of migrant artists to an organisation running weekly applied theatre classes in Tottenham - What prompted the Tottenham Project and how it grew from two people in a room to a company of sixteen preparing for a Jacksons Lane stage -Ali in Wonder(Eng)land — how the idea emerged, and how the 2026 version has been rebuilt with a largely new group. - Holding artistic rigour alongside the real complexity of a room where people are navigating insecure immigration status, mental health challenges, language barriers and a system that keeps moving the goalposts. - Why comedy and absurdism are not ways of softening the brutality but a way in. This episode considers what it means to make work that is both artistically ambitious and genuinely community led, and why those two things are not in opposition. Thank you Lara for your time and your generosity.

S01 E35 -Maria Åberg/ Projekt Utopia!
Subscribe on Substack, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube (with subtitles) – Applied Theatre Podcast In this episode I speak with Maria Åberg, Artistic Director of ‘Projekt Utopia’, formerly Project Europa, an organisation working with migrant theatre makers from around the world to platform migrant imagination through the performing arts. Maria reflects on the journey from directing on some of the UK's biggest stages, including the RSC and the National, to founding an organisation built on collective devising, multilingual practice and migrant-led artistry, and what prompted that shift during the pandemic. We discuss: – The decision to rebrand from Project Europa to Projekt Utopia, and why the original name was shrinking the space rather than opening it up – Migrant imagination as both a topic and a methodology, and whether there is such a thing as a migrant dramaturgy or aesthetic – Working with migrant communities during a period of explicit anti-migrant sentiment, and what it means to hold space for that reality within the room – What institutions still don't understand about casting, visas and genuinely welcoming migrant artists – The challenges of building governance structures that reflect an organisation's values rather than inherited, top-down models – What's next for Projekt Utopia, including international touring and a long-term vision for what a fully migrant-centred cultural institution could look like This episode considers what it means to make work from a place of hope without losing sight of the realities migrant artists are navigating, and why imaginative capacity born of migration may be one of the most undervalued creative resources in the industry today. Thank you Maria for your time.

Subscribe on Substack, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube (with subtitles) – Applied Theatre Podcast In this episode I speak with Sulu LeoNimm, Executive Director and Joker at Theatre of the Oppressed NYC. Sulu shares their journey from performer and theatre maker into applied practice rooted in the work of Augusto Boal, and reflects on what it means to use theatre as a tool to explore power, dialogue and collective action in contemporary contexts. We discuss: – The role of the Joker in facilitating forum theatre – How Theatre of the Oppressed operates in New York City today – Building work in collaboration with communities – The relationship between artistry and social change – The continued relevance of Boal’s techniques – And the importance of goals driven practice in 2026 This episode considers how applied theatre continues to evolve in response to shifting political, social and cultural landscapes, and what it means to create work that is both rigorous and responsive.
