EP 6: Throwing down the gauntlet on Access with David Bellwood, Head of Access at The National Theatre
Description
Michèle talks to David Bellwood - Head of Access at The National Theatre
Michèle and David discuss rigour around language and what it means for David to be a non-disabled person working in the area of ‘access’.
David throws down the gauntlet: can he and Michèle find a word that can usefully replace ‘access’ by the end of the episode?
They explore vulnerability and transparency as important values of his work.
Thank you to David for your time!
