The director of Jez Butterworth’s smash-hit, mythic extravaganza Jerusalem (currently at the Apollo Theatre) talks to Aleks Sierz about his long relationship with the work of this playwright, including The Night Heron, The Winterling and Parlour Song. Recorded at the Young Vic.

Jez accords articulacy and eloquence to each and every character of his plays, regardless of class, gender or empowerment.
