Meet the mum and daughter 'reclaiming' theatre for the working class

Over the last 12 months I’ve fully fallen in love with the theatre. I guess I grew up with the impression that it wasn’t for me. Theatre is for posh people, right?

Apparently not. Rebutting the gentrification of theatre and trailblazing an uprising in our very own ‘North West End' mum and daughter duo Margaret Connell and Siobhan Noble have been working behind the scenes to create accessible theatre that everyone can enjoy, while also elevating women, their voices, and stories.

It was an absolute pleasure to speak to them about their work, love of theatre and each other this week. Whether you know them or not (I bet you probably do) there isn’t much that happens on a North West stage that these two aren’t involved with.
