For the last 25 years, Amanda Shepherd worked her way up to the dress circle of theatre management in Launceston.

This has been the third tranche of Mandy's working life .. the first being education, then came radio which led to her involvement in, and love of, Theatre North at the Princess Theatre.

Respected by the staff and visiting theatre groups, Mandy has now decided to take the final curtain call on her role as General Manager.

It is obvious the rapport Mandy created on both sides of the curtain contributed not only to a successful career but also leaves a thriving theatre scene in Launceston. 

Mandy joined the Long Lunch program to reflect on her working life in Launceston .... and how her hobby of presenting music programs in her spare time on City Park Radio first led to part-time on the ABC radio and then a full time commercial radio gig through to theatre management.

It is surprising where the community radio road can take you.....
