Actor and playwright Daniel York joins Creative Conversations host Yang-May Ooi to talk about his new play Forgotten, an epic story about the Chinese Labour Corps who worked in the trenches during the First World War.
Daniel York on Telling Forgotten Stories ¦ Creative Conversations [podcast]
Daniel York is one of the foremost British East Asian actors and playwrights working in the UK and international theatre at the moment. I was psyched that he joined me on the Creative Conversations podcast to talk about his new play Forgotten, developed over four years and launching in London to coincide with the centenary of the end of the First World War.
