The Green Room: Drew Dir and How Manual Cinema Began

Welcome to Episode 7 of Writers Theatre's podcast - The Green Room. Each episode, we'll be joined by some of the industry's most illustrious artists for intimate conversations about art, theatre, and the world around us.

Today, we're joined by ⁠Drew Dir⁠, one of the Co-Artistic Directors of Manual Cinema, the acclaimed group behind Manual Cinema's Christmas Carol which has returned to Writers Theatre this holiday season after its debut last year.⁠ Drew talks about the origins of Manual Cinema, their love of ghost stories, and how he designs the puppets for this beloved spin on Charles Dickens's classic story.
