Words and Worth - Joanne Lau Creative Conversations ¦ Bold Creativity, Smart Action

    • Society & Culture

Playwright Joanne Lau started out as a neuroscientist and came to writing for the theatre via stand up comedy and TV screenwriting. Now her first play Worth is being produced by New Earth Theatre and premieres at the Arcola Theatre in London this month April 2023. Joanne joins Yang-May Ooi to talk about her journey from science to making a living with her words - and of course her play Worth, a dark but also funny piece about siblings searching through their dead mother’s house for their lost inheritance.
