Cush Jumbo and Phyllida Lloyd worked together on the latter’s all-female Shakespeare trilogy which, Jumbo has said, gave her the confidence to write her debut play, Josephine and I.
They are back together here, Lloyd as the director of Jumbo’s audio drama, which is also performed by her for this Audible Originals production. It is a monologue about the legacy of child sexual abuse and how its psychological damage is passed down so that it leaves its traumatic ripples across generations.
