Talking Therapy - Poetry, Performance and the Past with Tom Langlands and Lesley Buchan Donald
Alex chats to Tom Langlands and Lesley Buchan Donald about their ambitious projects to get the Perthshire public creating, writing and performing. We hear the story of how they found each other and forged their creative partnership, engaging and energising the community to help them deliver their stunning theatre shows, and giving a platform to all ages and abilities to share their creative outpourings. Lesley discusses using the power of creativity as a therapy for Parkinson's and as a welcome alternative to her prior, stressed out vet's existence, and we discuss using Auchterarder's rich history to bind it all together.
