It’s been a month since Elmet premiered in Bradford @bradford2025, and we’re still thinking about this moment from the post-show talk, where Javaad, @FJMozley, and @SyimaAslam talk about Javaad's theatrical choice to not have Daddy played by one single actor ✨

Listen to Ep.2 of @britishcouncil’s Our World, Connected 🌐 Javaad talks about the importance of making work that asks complex, often uncomfortable questions, with Brazil’s ambassador, Antonio Patriota.
