We’re in the West for the start of this week’s show as we welcome back our Perth Correspondent, Helen Simondson who’ll catch us up on what’s happening in her neck of the woods especially what’s on in this year’s Perth Festival…

Meanwhile, in Melbourne, Joel Carnegie and Tom Molyneux are presenting a double bill of family stories from the past – in Stardust, Joel performs as his grandfather, jazz trumpeter Col Brain and in The Mission, Tom performs as his great great uncle Allan McDonald one of the first Victorian Aboriginal soldiers at Gallipoli.

After that we’re back at TarraWarra Museum of Art for a follow up to our Myth Rider walk & talk with Curator Anthony Fitzpatrick…  this time it’s Heather B Swann’s companion exhibition, Leda and the Swan.

And finally, last time we spoke with author Maryrose Cuskelly, she was writing true crime. Now she’s jumped the fence and joined the ranks of crime fiction writers and she’s here to tell us about her debut novel, The Cane.

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

You can find the first part of our walk and talk through the Sidney Nolan exhibition on our January 31 show here.
