Are You Old Yet? Singing into Elderhood with Frankie Armstrong

Am I Old Yet? — Comedy audio drama

BONUS EPISODE: Second in this occasional series of interviews/conversations. My guest is singer and activist Frankie Armstrong, still singing and demonstrating in her 80s. Frankie was part of the British Folk Song Revival in the 1960s, has performed with the National Theatre, runs workshops for RCCSD graduate students and she is the founder of the Natural Voice Network. We've been friends since 1967, and our conversations ranges from reminiscences, and the ageing process to singing styles and back again.
