Summer Special #3 - Monday January 19, 2026

We kick off our third Behind the Scenes Summer Special for 2026 with Part 2 of our visit to Adelaide.

Over January we’ve been chatting with some remarkable people from the arts world - slightly longer chats about their lives and work. Some have joined us for the very first time, and others might have been familiar to you if you’re a regular listener. This week we focus on the State Theatre Company of South Australia when we meet designer Kathryn Sproul, who’s working on two shows in this year’s season as well as relatively new Artistic Director Petra Kalive.

SUMMER SPECIAL #2 – Monday January 12, 2026

Welcome to the second Behind the Scenes Summer Special for 2026. Over January we chat with some remarkable people from the arts world - slightly longer chats about their lives and work. Some will join us for the very first time, and others might be familiar to you if you’re a regular listener.

This week is part one of a two-part visit to Adelaide which, of course, means we will start with our regular Adelaide correspondent Elena Vereka but for a change, we’ll be talking about her work with InSite Arts – then she introduces us to dancer turned audio describer, Carol Wellman Kelly, before we catch up with Elena’s predecessor, our former Adelaide correspondent and Artistic Director of Patch Theatre, Geoff Cobham.

They’re all in Adelaide with Chris Thompson right here on Vision Australia Radio.
