Emteaz Hussain and Jasmine Lee-Jones in conversation

Living Newspaper Clippings, is a new series of conversations between some of the writers and artists who are creating Living Newspaper at the Royal Court Theatre.

“Writing, in and of itself is not tantamount to any sort of transformation or even healing, but I think it can be part of the healing process.”

Writers Emteaz Hussain (Sweet Cider) and Jasmine Lee-Jones (seven methods of killing kylie jenner) wrote for the Obituaries section of Living Newspaper Edition 1 and Edition 2. Obituaries in the Living Newspaper is a site to remember, reminisce, and rejoice in the memory of people, places and things that may have been lost this year.

In this episode Emteaz and Jasmine discuss creating their pieces for Living Newspaper, and the role of writing for self-reflection and transformation.
