Made in China theatre company explore empathy and happiness

INTERVIEW: JESSICA LATOWICKI and TIM COWBURY

Jessica Latowicki and Tim Cowbury aka Made in China talk to Diana Damian about repetition, distance and exploring empathy in their upcoming show We Hope You Are Happy (Why Would We Lie)? at the Battersea Arts Centre (BAC). Recorded at BAC, 24 February 2012.

We like shows that are set out to fail; there’s a fine line between staged failure and failure that haunts you, that doesn’t go away. The best thing for us the second one, the kind that nags you and makes you question why you can’t put that show to bed.
