Attend in person
Actors place themselves in situations many would find uncomfortable – when performing sex, where’s the line between simulation and reality? Intimacy co-ordinators such as the pioneering Ita O’Brien help not just performers but crews to create clear boundaries so everyone feels protected in such moments. In Intimacy, O’Brien uses her experiences on shows including Normal People and Sex Education to reflect on how we navigate sex and intimacy within ourselves, and with others. Hear her today in conversation with Jackie Wylie.
