Museum in Baghdad features & blogs

This autumn my new play A Museum in Baghdad opens at the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Swan Theatre, it will then transfer to the Kiln in London in April 2020 (still pinching myself). I’ve written a few blogs and done a few interviews to tie in with the production and thought I’d put them all in one place:
