Who's Really Deciding the Future of the Arts? Lord Chris Smith Explains
The Spotlight Podcast - A podcast by Spotlight - Fridays

For performers, the decisions that shape their careers often feel distant, made behind closed doors by policymakers. In this episode of The Spotlight Podcast, we sit down with Lord Chris Smith, the UK’s first Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and a lifelong advocate for the performing arts, to pull back the curtain on how cultural policy is made and why your voice is critical.
