How to make creativity an everyday joy

Published on: 3rd May, 2021

Louise Breckon-Richards is a playwright and actress. She trained at The Guildhall School of music and drama. She has appeared in TV shows including We Hunt Together, Temple, Coronation Street, Cuckoo, Doctors and Sherlock. She has performed at The National Theatre, West Yorkshire Playhouse and with the English Shakespeare company among many others.

When she experienced vocal problems Louise turned to writing and painting to express herself and her plays include: Four O’Clock Flowers, In the Mouth of the River, Trace, and The Cloak of Visibility, a one-woman show in which I play Amy, at the Space Arts centre in June 2021. We talk about how much we have missed the shared experience of theatre in lockdown, how collaboration is essential and about how to bring the joy of creativity to everyday life.
