Technically, tonight should be our first Adelaide segment for the year…  but our Adelaide correspondent Elena Vereka from Insite Arts is in Melbourne. Why? We’ll find out when I catch up with her… in person for a change…  (ps… here’s a clue!)

 

Then, it’s St Kilda Festival time again and that’s a good reason to chat with City of Port Philip Mayor Louise Crawford to find out what they’ve got lined up for us this year…

Meanwhile, in the lead up to AsiaTOPA we’ll talk with celebrated photographer and visual artist William Yang who’s teamed up with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra to make Milestone, a look back at fifty years of social change and the evolution of our bohemian artist community…

Over at Theatre Works, they’re gearing up for a gothic suburban horror show in which, it seems, the Monster’s name is Jerry. Writer, Amy May Nunn is here to tell us how all that relates to having kids…

And finally, this Thursday, February 13 is World Radio Day and this year’s environmental theme matches quite nicely with Limb: Ode to the Trees, a new show about to premier as part of Flinders Fringe on the Mornington Peninsular and we’ll meet two of its creators, Sally Grage-Moore and Carole Patullo…

They’re all on this week’s edition of Behind the Scenes with Chris Thompson right here on Vision Australia Radio.

The Australian Arts community is as diverse as its population. Each week Behind The Scenes looks at how people carry out these arts projects. Many stories, both fascinating and amusing are waiting to be told.
