Creageivity
If you think you may be too old to be creative, or too creative to be old, then CREAGEIVITY is the podcast for you. Hosted by artist / musician / writers Adrienne Thomas and Harlan Cockburn, each show brings illuminating and inspiring conversation with people who have kept on keeping on in their chosen field... or started some entirely new activity in later life.

Creageivity 36 - with Voice / Stage Actor / Writer Amanda Booth
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Creageivity 36 we meet AMANDA BOOTH, Voice Actor, Actor, Translator, and Children’s Author, who also performs a one-woman show Countless Lives about the fascinating Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa.
Amanda has lived and worked in Portugal for over forty years, with her first children’s book being published in March 2026, in three languages. The Donkey Who Wanted to Know Things is beautifully illustrated by the Portuguese artist Artur Varela.
In the podcast Amanda reads a sample of her work Imprints, based on the technique of Method Writing. It’s a very real and personal piece, a snapshot of her life at the rural ruin she has restored over many years.
She finishes the podcast with a poem by one of Pessoa’s most notable ‘heteronyms’, Ricardo Reis.
You can also hear how Amanda and Adrienne first met… in Bed.
