Episode 030: Immersive theatre through podcasts - a talk with Rosie Poebright

For almost a year the COVID-19 pandemic has created a number of obstacles not only for our everyday life, but also for creatives and producers all over the world.

At the same time, new projects featuring ways of engaging and telling stories have cropped up around the globe, as lockdowns and Zoom calls have become integrated parts of our existence.

One of these projects is called “Play Inside” - a very interesting way of letting the audience become part of the narrative, fostering understanding and empathy.

In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to have been able to have a chat with Rosie Poebright. Rosie’s the Creative Director at Splash & Ripple, PhD researcher in the Embodied Story at University of the West of England, and now co founder of Play Inside, a new form of experiential podcast which brings an immersive theatrical audio experience to your home.
