After the successful launch of our podcast Overheard by the Woodhouse Players in May 2021 and by popular demand, we’ve decided to continue producing radio plays.
Starting Overheard by the Woodhouse Players podcast was our response to keeping theatre alive during the 2020 Winter COVID-19 UK National Lockdown. As a theatre company we have always been interested in new writing and wanted to provide creative opportunities for people during this difficult period regardless of geographical location and other barriers to access.
Global reach
Our podcast listeners include people living in UK, US, Ireland, Australia, Turkey, Russia, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Canada, Hungary, Japan, UEA.
