  • North By Northwest - with Katy Owen
    Mar 18 2025

    NXNW Episode 2

    In this episode we dive into the magic, mayhem, and magnificent theatricality of North by Northwest—Emma’s latest production. How do you take a classic Hitchcock film, famous for its high-octane chases, iconic suspense, and cinematic flair, and transform it into a breathtaking piece of live theatre?

    Joining Emma for this episode is the inimitable Katy Owen—a longtime Wise Children collaborator and a master of mischief on stage. Together, they unpack the creative process behind adapting this cinematic masterpiece, the joys and challenges of bringing its larger-than-life moments to the stage, and what audiences can expect from this thrilling new production. Katy is joined by a large cinnamon bun - you'll have to listen...

    Also, Emma talks to sound designer and composer Simon Baker as the York Minster bells ring out on a Sunday morning.
