The Virago Collective

Catching up with the Viragos: Elana What have you been up to during the pandemic? Working. A lot. At work. And at re-launching my business. And at pre-production stuff for Virago. And at podcasting. And writing. Making space to create. Trying to find that elusive sweet-spot between work and play, rush and rest, brain and heart. Also, eating too many potato chips.... What are you watching? Just like everyone else, I’m re-watching The Office for the 40th time. I’ve also started the German series Dark. It’s - dark. And beautiful. Highly recommend (with a trigger warning for almost everything). What are you reading? The Book of Lost Things (John Connolly); Poking a Dead Frog (Mike Sacks); Holistic Tarot (Benebell Wen) What are you listening to? I’ve had TV on the Radio, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, and UNKLE going a lot lately, and have been enjoying a good cry to some My Brightest Diamond or Sóley because why not make things worse? I also went on a classic country deep dive a few months ago and I’m still in the depths. What’s keeping you going right now? FaceTime sessions with my nieces. My dog. Potato chips. What are you looking forward to ‘post-pandemic’? Getting weird in rehearsal. Eating hot noodle soup like an absolute cow in front of other people. People. What are you NOT looking forward to ‘post-pandemic’? Bras. Traffic. People.
