Small is beautiful, with Emma Rice

Small is beautiful, with Emma Rice

The Emma Rice Company's adaptation of Dylan Thomas’ A Child’s Christmas in Wales opened last week to rave reviews. Hannah grabbed some time with its founder, writer and director Emma Rice, to talk about a change of name, a new venue in Somerset, and Thomas. And a lot more besides, including Emma’s time as artistic director at The Globe, something that did not end happily, and why she thinks we’re all being a bit hard on Enid Blyton.
