Writer, Actor and founder of SpectaculArts, Sharon de Leonardis talks about her play “Rise of the Empress” playing at The Quarry Theatre, Bedford on 4th April, and how her work – including a new UK school curriculum course on black heritage - tackles racism, discrimination and provokes discussion and reflection on essential issues.
Season 2 of Skits and Quibbles puts individuals who are making huge waves in the Arts world front and centre. Brought to you by Burlesque instructor Precocious Lotus (or Dr Audrey if you watch Mental Health Matters), we get to see our stars from the worlds of drama, music, dance, comedy and spoken word in action, and then learn about the person behind the performance.
…and don’t worry, Gordana Micic and The Groovie Bunch will be back for Season 3!

We are treated to the uplifting poetry of Kezzabelle Ambler, Performance Poet, Author, and 11th Bard of Northamptonshire, who also runs her Weaving Words workshops to support wellbeing within the mental health space. We talk about the power of words and how sometimes we fear “writing”…yet a “scribble” – can help us release so much emotion and restore some balance.
Season 2 of Skits and Quibbles puts individuals who are making huge waves in the Arts world front and centre. Brought to you by Burlesque instructor Precocious Lotus (or Dr Audrey if you watch Mental Health Matters), we get to see our stars from the worlds of drama, music, dance, comedy and spoken word in action, and then learn about the person behind the performance.
…and Gordana Micic and The Groovie Bunch are still recording and will be back for Season 3!
