Mandatory Redistribution Party

Comedy


Just what is art? Is a tree an art? Is beyblade art? Sean and Jack are joined by arts and culture correspondent Jain Edwards to unpick the sticky state of the arts in a society that can only measure value in terms of profit. They discuss the problem of defending arts and culture based on the industry's £10.8billion per year contribution to the UK's GDP, as well as imagining ways to overcome the challenges that stop arts being truly inclusive and adventurous.---Support us on Patreon (if and only if you have the means!!): patreon.com/mandatoryredistributionparty---Mandatory Redistribution Party was created and produced by Sean Morley and Jack Evans.
