Lucy Prebble, acclaimed playwright and Succession screenwriter, talks to Tom about the return of I Hate Suzie Too, her TV collaboration with Billie Piper about a B-list celebrity making a reality TV comeback, following an intimate phone hacking scandal. Immersive and interactive exhibitions, performances and ‘experiences' are everywhere, from the Frida Kahlo exhibition at the Reel Store in Coventry to a Peaky Blinders experience in London. Tom is joined by author Laurence Scott and art critic Rachel Campbell-Johnson to ask if we've reached peak immersion. After having its funding slashed and being told it must move out of London, where does the English National Opera go from here? Manchester has been mooted, although there are reports that the Arts Council may be about to grant the ENO a reprieve. The company's chief executive Stuart Murphy will give us an update, and we'll hear from Richard Mantle, chief executive of Leeds-based Opera North, which tours to cities including Greater Manchester. And Manchester-based opera singer Soraya Mafi, who has performed with ENO, explains what the move might mean to her.

Is the gender pension gap just the inevitable consequence of the biological reality of pregnancy for women, or are there steps we could be all taking to mitigate the financial penalty of parenting that affects mothers more harshly than it does fathers? Unless otherwise stated, the data quoted is sourced either from Legal & General's retirement research into its 4.6 million members gathered throughout 2021, or from LGIM's recent research into auto-enrolment, conducted externally by Ignition House and carried out in June 2022.

How a national institution took on digital disruption When Stuart Murphy sent his team home as lockdown was announced in March 2020, he didn't know what lay ahead. Yet he was determined to keep his colleagues connected at a time of crisis and to help ENO continue to do what makes it unique: creating groundbreaking work. Digital was vital to their survival. What follows is the story of how a national institution began to reinvent itself by embracing digital. From changing the way his organisation communicated, to building his own peer support network and responding to Black Lives Matter, Stuart tells us how ENO not only survived but thrived during a year of change and upheaval.

The English National Opera (ENO) in London is giving free tickets to people under 18 years old. Last December 2018, the ENO announced its new initiative to give the youth an opportunity to watch opera for free. Stuart Murphy, the company's CEO, said that the initiative is based on the ENO's core values, one of which is to make opera more accessible to everyone. He added that by removing ticket costs, the company hopes to attract young viewers, regardless of how much they know about opera. According to Murphy, the initiative will benefit not only the ENO but also the art of opera. Under the initiative, people aged 16 to 17 can get free tickets for Saturday night performances during the ENO's spring season. The seats are limited to the balcony area, but viewers can get up to 80% discount on full price tickets should they prefer to be seated elsewhere. Meanwhile, those below 16 will require adult supervision. The adult, who will be paying full price, can then bring up to four people under 16 for free. The free tickets are also available for school groups. Ten students can watch the opera for free as long as they are accompanied by one teacher. This is not the ENO's first initiative to get the youth interested in opera. In 2006, the ENO launched the Access All Arias scheme entitling its members to discounted tickets and programs. Full-time students or students 16 to 29 years old can sign up as members. They are allowed to bring another student guest, who can purchase a ticket at the same discounted price.
