If you know anything about Garrison Keillor’s old time radio show A Prairie Home Companion, then you might have some idea of what to expect from Bring it Home, the interactive and participatory concert celebrating the diversity of older people. And if you don’t know what this all means, then Creative Producer Karen Davitt is here to set you straight.



Then, it’s time for the Darebin FUSE Festival again and we’ll catch up with two events from its extensive programme. The Molly Hadfield Social Justice Oration has been presented for more than a decade and we’ll find out who Molly Hadfield was and what to expect from this year’s line up when we meet Senior Producer Lauren Mullings before meeting the first ever Teen Orator, Zuva Goverwa.



Meanwhile at the Northern Community Church in Preston, you can get up close and personal with a whole bunch of Thingamabobs – surprising machines and quirky contraptions each of which has a story to tell…  and to tell us about it is the creator of Thingamabobs, Jens Altheimer.



And finally, FUSE isn’t the only festival looming on the calendar. Pretty soon it’ll be time for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, so we’re getting in early with a visit from one of our favourites. The Tuck Shop Ladies – Sam Lohs and Rosie Burgess who are here to talk about In Real Life, their new show at The Butterfly Club…



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