Sadie Frost on starring in Touched...Like a Virgin

Claudia meets actress Sadie Frost, who is starring in the play Touched...Like a Virgin, and discusses the World Shakespeare Festival with Michael Boyd, artistic director of the RSC.

Claudia discusses the World Shakespeare Festival with Michael Boyd, the outgoing artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Prized as the "trump card" putting art at the heart of the Olympics, the festival, which runs until the autumn as part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, features a huge programme of events including 70 Shakespeare productions and exhibitions nationwide, and contributions from thousands of UK and international artists and amateurs.

Actress Sadie Frost talks about starring in Touched...Like A Virgin at London's Soho Theatre. The one woman play by Zoe Lewis follows Madonna obsessed Lesley on her journey as a 14 year old virgin to a 38 year old stuck in the modern crisis; single, with no children and the clock ticking.

Award winning playwright Bola Agbaje talks about her new play; Belong, which questions our notion of home, and opens in London's Royal Court Theatre Upstairs on April 26th.

Plus Sue Steward talks about the latest photography exhibitions and Charles Gant reviews this week's films, which include Salmon Fishing In The Yemen, starring Ewan McGregor and Emily Blunt.
