Fancy a cuppa? It’s Tea Time with IGNITE!

Fourteen producers, fourteen productions, two brilliant weeks.

We are IGNITE - a theatre festival that provides a platform for Mountview’s MA Creative Producers to explore their vision and practice in collaboration with artists.

So sit back and relax with our host Jenny Shpeter whilst we chat about all things IGNITE - the highs, lows and everything in between.

In this episode, Jenny Shpeter and Rebecca James (the host, and editor of the podcast) sit down with each other and discuss their journies into producing, their IGNITE shows, and their Teatime shoutout's!

Rebecca's Teatime shoutout Skylight is the restaraunt and bar at the top of Mountview! Skylight has a wonderful view of Peckham and the London skyline, and is the perfect place for a pre-show bougie meal(Rebecca recommends a glass of the house white, with a bowl of parmesan truffle fries and the garlicky mayo). Alongside a wonderful menu, and wonderful view, Skylight is also host to wonderful experiences; from their regular Bottomless Drag Brunch, to weekly open mic nights from Mountview students. You can find out more about, and book a table for Skylight here: https://www.skylightbars.com/experience/mountview-pre-dinner-show/

Jenny's Teatime shoutout is Tianjin Dumpling, which is a family business located at Market Place Peckham, a marketplace that is host to lots of different food stalls (remember this for future episodes). Tianjin Dumpling is of course, known for it's dumplings, that are made fresh to order. Jenny's favourite is the pork dumplings, which she says taste so fresh and flavourful. Tianjin Dumpling, and the marketplace can be found on the Peckham High Street, which is only a 4 minute walk from Mountview! It's the perfect spot for a quick bite between IGNITE shows!
