Behind the Scenes 3rd June 2024

It's 55 years since the Apollo 11 Moon Landing, so it makes sense that Helen Simondson from Boola Bardip WA Museum is here to talk about their current To The Moon exhibition which not only features a scale replica of the moon, but an actual piece of the Moon itself…



Arts Access Victoria might not have been around for the Moon landing, but it got its start pretty soon after and Sabina Knox and Geof Robinson will walk & talk us through The Collective, their fiftieth birthday exhibition at the Meta Market…



If you were listening to the show at the start of June you might have heard a conversation with Efren Pamilacan, Artistic Director of the street dance orgnaistion Cypher Culture… well, now you can meet the Executive Director Geoffrey Lim as a follow up to that earlier story…



And finally, in April last year Gabrielle Leah New was here to talk about Reclaim the Crone a performance by a group of ‘dangerous older women’…  well, that show is back, and one of those ‘dangerous older women’ - Karen Berger – is here to give us an update on the new season at Theatre Works…



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



If you’d like to hear the conversation with Cypher Culture Artistic Director Efren Pamilacan it was on the June 3 edition of the show which you’ll find HERE
