Welcome to the delightfully unconventional world of ‘Holding Up the Queue’ – this irregular, irreverent podcast explores esoteric ways of thinking, the magic of storytelling and some unexpected corners of creativity, taking the Harlequinade and transformation through play as the wellspring of some unusual and fascinating themes.
These podcasts are created by Benjamin Pollock’s Toyshop in Covent Garden, at the heart of London theatre land for over 80 years.
