Description

Day 125 and we speak to actor Isra in her childhood bedroom in Gothenburg Sweden.
 
Isra left her home in New York at the height of the pandemic in March and return to what felt like a parallel universe - the country where she grew up - Sweden.
 
We spoke at a time that unemployment benefits were coming to an end in the US so it was occupying many, especially the creative industries.
 
Sweden's light touch approach to the  pandemic has caused debate globally as it was SO unusual - was it the right approach to save the economy? Did it work and could it really work outside of Sweden?
 
We talk about the palpable change to the living organism that is New York City during Covid and what the future might hold for this adored city.
 
The incredibly tough work landscape for artists and what it is now morphing into - including some interesting tidbits on the future of casting.  The unparalleled magic of live theatre and how artists are stretching to find opportunity in this bleak time.
 
The wisdom of mamas (always no matter where you go, they are there!) and how to tame overachiever tendencies in a world that has stopped.
