North By Southwest - Sleepwalk Collective

 In today’s programme we discuss alternative theatre with anglo-spanish live art and experimental theatre group Sleepwalk Collective who are this week performing their piece As the Flames Rose We Danced to the Sirens, the Sirens at Flame International Festival of New Theatre in Manchester, England. In fact, this piece by Sleepwalk Collective was streamed live online by The Guardian Newspaper to viewers around the world. So who are Sleepwalk Collective? And what is alternative theatre? To answer these questions and more we speak to Iara Solano and Sammy Metcalfe the Spanish and British couple behind this theatre company.
