Happy Pride Month, everybody! This week we have the pleasure of interviewing the person who started it all. Simon Jay is an Edinburgh based Theatre Reviewer, Comedian, Producer, Director, Playwright, and is the Creator and Editor of the Neurodiverse Review UK. We genuinely wouldn't have ORDA without him!
Simon gives us crash course in Theatre Reviewing– providing 3 important things to keep in mind when sitting down to write. They also chat about why they started the Neurodiverse Review UK, why he has such multifaceted interests, and his process of developing his new play "The Sunshine Spa" at A Play, A Pie, and A Pint Theatre Festival.
Lots of takeaways from this week's chat, so sit back and enjoy!
