Maggie Gyllenhaal, BalletBoyz
Maggie Gyllenhaal talks about her new film The Kindergarten Teacher. Plus BalletBoyz on dispensing with a choreographer for their new work.
Maggie Gyllenhaal discusses her new film The Kindergarten Teacher, in which she plays a teacher who believes one of her students is a child prodigy and begins to pass his poems off as her own. She also talks about having an intimacy director on the set of The Deuce, and her upcoming directorial debut - an adaptation of an Elena Ferrante novel.
This week Akwaeke Emezi became the first non-binary author to be long-listed for the Women's Prize for Fiction. Critic Vic Parsons discusses the consequences of this for women's prizes.
The BalletBoyz dancers have dispensed with a traditional choreographer to create a new work themselves, called Them. Front Row goes backstage at Sadler's Wells with dancers Matthew Sandiford and Bradley Waller, artistic director Michael Nunn and composer Charlotte Harding.
