An interview with Ruby after The Welcoming Party, Saturday 8th July at Manchester International Festival.
What is the show but the audience? is series of interviews about MIF shows with Mancunians who never normally see shows at the festival.  With the promise of a free ticket and free chips/pint/cup of tea afterwards, we go to see a show together and find out what they thought. This project hopes to treat 'new audiences' like more than just useful data for venues and festivals to analyse, offering the public more authority to define what the theatre means to them and who it might be for.
This project was made by Jenny Gaskell as part of MIF 17 Creative50 programme.
