A proposito di questo titolo

 What if we all saw age, not as a barrier, but as a new beginning? Featuring sparkling conversation from vintage minds, The Third Act is a podcast that celebrates later life – by putting it centre-stage. Each episode, writer and journalist Catherine Fairweather chats to some of the world’s most experienced artists, adventurers, actors and entrepreneurs – hearing tales of triumphs and setbacks, exploring the intimate secrets of a life well lived and unpacking tricks for ageing gracefully (or otherwise). Over lunch at Auriens Chelsea, each guest reflects openly and honestly about how they are redefining later living and embracing life’s next act. Warm, witty and invariably wise, this series will leave you with the strong belief that the best is yet to come. The Third Act is brought to you by Auriens – a luxury residence in Chelsea that redefines later living.2022 - Auriens Scienze sociali

    In this episode, host Catherine Fairweather sits down with esteemed British author and journalist Sofka Zinovieff, whose latest book Stealing Dad has been described by The Observer as “funny, sad and full of beautiful writing.” Their conversation looks at the themes at the heart of Sofka’s work: inherited identity, complex family dynamics, and the rituals that, as she puts it, “give shape to loss.” Drawing on both personal experience and professional insight, Sofka discusses how these ideas informed Stealing Dad and why they continue to resonate with readers.

    In tribute to Sir Tom Stoppard, who died last week, we are reposting this conversation from our archives. Sir Tom Stoppard was one of the most widely acclaimed playwrights and screenwriters of his generation. His award-winning body of work includes the screenplay for Shakespeare in Love and the plays Arcadia and The Real Thing. His final major work, Leopoldstadt—often described as his most personal play—is set in the Jewish community of early 20th-century Vienna. It won the Olivier Award for Best New Play after its celebrated West End run and is currently playing on Broadway. In this episode, Sir Tom speaks with Catherine Fairweather about his childhood, his writing process, the benefits of getting older, and the tick-tock of the universe.
