Brecht, Shaffer and are theatre tickets really getting cheaper?

Welcome to the WhatsOnStage Podcast!

In another busy week, Sarah Crompton and Alex Wood sat down on Tuesday to discuss whether Peter Shaffer’s Equus is really the Adolescence of its day – and how relevant Brecht’s warnings about totalitarianism and war still feel.

Plus a report from the Society of London Theatre and UK Theatre on ticket pricing prompts some new thinking – in what is a tricky, and complex debate.

Crompton and Wood host a weekly series on all things theatrical. News, views, frank exchanges and lists offer an unmissable guide to what’s happening on stage (and in film and on television) now, in the past and in future.

The podcast can be listened to on various streaming platforms – including Apple Podcasts and Audible. Make sure you subscribe so you never miss an episode!
