About this listen
It's Benedict Lombe (Shifters! Lava!) day!
Bene is an award-winning Congolese British playwright and screenwriter. Her work includes the hit play Shifters, which transferred to the West End in Summer 2024, marking a ground-breaking moment as Benedict Lombe became the third Black British female playwright to have a play staged in the West End. Shifters went on to have another sell-out run at the Duke of York’s Theatre, earning two Olivier Award nominations in 2025, including an Olivier nomination for Best New Play - making Benedict Lombe the first Black British woman to be nominated in this category.
Join Bene and Molly for a chat about isolation. How we balance the time we need to spend alone as makers with no going stir-crazy or alienating ourselves from community. We talk about how to bounce back from rejection, the impact of getting to be in the room where it happens, white chocolate and much more.
Molly also reveals her biggest kink.
