Greetings and welcome to WORDTheatre Weekly: The Short Story Podcast where great authors and actors meet! I’m your host, Cedering Fox, WORDTheatre’s Founder & Artistic Director.
This week, we’re bringing you “Grab My Hand” by Toby Litt, performed by Olivia Williams.
We are fortunate that we tracked down our author and actor who have each recorded an introduction to the story. For those who weren't present to experience this performance live along with the author, here is the next best thing!
