Mary and her guests discuss the politics of casting. She is joined by actor Prasanna Puwanarajah, writer Ella Whelan and theatre director Dawn Walton to discuss gender-blind and colour-blind casting. Is it political correctness, or will it work to attract wider audiences? And how can so-called 'blind casting' actually bring new perspectives and create new narratives? Mary and her guests discuss the new gender-blind, colour-blind season at Shakespeare's Globe that raises some fundamental questions about theatre in the 21st century.
