UNMUTE Ep. 2: Athena Stevens - writer, performer and social activist HACK Theatre presents UNMUTE

    • Política

HACK Theatre speaks to Athena Stevens, a writer, performer, director and social activist.   

Having started lockdown long before many of us, Athena shares her experiences of spending this time with her Lithuanian friend, her pet cat and a ‘socially close’ two-year-old. With her plans of writing for hours and hours out the window, Athena tells how this time hasn’t been wasted. In fact, it has proven to be full of unexpected but meaningful milestones and a welcome escape from the trauma of normality.   

With reflections on both the beauty of home life and the importance of the current global political movements, this interview suggests practical ways of identifying paths forwards, helping us to reach our goals, be these creative or not.
