In GBA 246 we get better acquainted with Lauren. We talk telling stories, cultivating awkward moments, living in the grey areas, the cracks in things, running away to join the circus band, calling yourself a comedian, attempting to make a living from making art, the poetics of failure and being excited among many other things. You also get to hear her singing a really lovely song.

Spark recently spent a few weeks working with the HIV charity Body & Soul, based just around the corner from one of our favourite venues: the Exmouth Market Theatre in central London. Established in 1996, Body & Soul is a pioneering UK charity dedicated to transforming the lives of children, teenagers and families living with, or affected by HIV. Here we present three true stories from the night. Whilst delayed by friends, Dexter discovers a love of the written word; next, Munya's vacation in Cancún turns sour as soon as he boards a moped - and finally, Milton tells us how a new job led to a personal revelation... Special thanks to Body & Soul and the storytellers for letting us release these stories to you, and to Jen Carpenter who produced the night with support from Gigi Hanna, Andy Bodle & Ian Barratt. You're all ace. For more information, and to support Body & Soul, please visit www.bodyandsoulcharity.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
