INTERVIEW: BIJAN SHEIBANI

The new head of the ATC (Actors Touring Company) talks to Aleks Sierz about his imaginative staging of Tarell Alvin McCraney’s The Brothers Size, a hit for the Young Vic, and explains some of the Yoruba cosmology that underpins the play.

Because of Tarell’s background in street theatre, the play has a simplicity that we knew we had to achieve.
