In Autumn 2020, we decided that we wanted to capture some of the unheard stories of lockdown, so we commissioned five artists to write about their lockdown experience. Some of the artists have written before, but for others, this is a new journey. Please join us as we present to you these funny, moving and unwaveringly honest, untold tales in our brand new series of short films, Broadcasts of Interruption: 5 Pandemic Stories: bit.ly/BroadcastsOfInterruption
