Welcome to this month's episode of The Wilderness of Creativity.
Over the last 20 years, Stacey Moon-Tracy (@staceymoontracy) has worked in a variety of educational and community settings as a freelance drama workshop leader, university lecturer, playwright and director. She is currently in the final stages of completing her PhD at Coventry University, where she has focused on using playwriting as Arts Based Practice to explore the COVID-19 experiences and ethical dilemmas of ICU Nurses. Her latest work, 'Critical Care', is an act of care towards nurses and a way of amplifying their experiences for a wider audience. She has recently received Arts Council England funding and is working towards developing a full stage production of the play.
