We are excited to bring some punk rock to this year’s festivities as the team behind the critically acclaimed anarchic and irreverent music comedy, We Are Lady Parts, take to the stage.
In conversation with our International Editor, Tan France, the cast and creative team behind the show will join us to talk about the creation of the ground-breaking series, which follows a Muslim female punk band who are on a mission to find a lead guitarist. Produced by Working Title Television, which is part of NBCUniversal International Studios, the series redefines Muslim representation. Having recently launched on Channel 4 in the UK and Peacock in the US, We Are Lady Parts has fast become a global success.
