Introduction

How to Be a Better Human is the BBC World Service's TED podcast. In this episode, we meet acclaimed theatre director Tinu Craig as she prepares for one of her most challenging projects so far. She will be directing US Opera Blue at London's Coliseum with the English National Opera. This is the first time in her career that Tinu has ever attempted an opera, let alone a contemporary one and one that covers police brutality and violence in America. We also go backstage to find out how Tinu directs Blue for a UK audience.
