Leah Purcell is an internationally acclaimed actor & director starring in projects like Wentworth, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart and The Drover's Wife. 

But in our chat today she shares stories about her childhood in regional Queensland, her grandmothers experience being stolen and placed in Cherbourg mission and how she wanted to make it to Hollywood. 

Plus Leah had a fangirl moment with Sigourney Weaver while working on The Lost Flowers, and before she acted, she was a musician supporting Shania Twain. 

Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
