Miranda Tapsell: Top End Girl

View descriptionShare

Top End Girl is the rollicking and thought-provoking memoir from actor, activist and writer Miranda Tapsell, spanning the world from Kakadu to Cannes. It captures her love of Darwin and the Tiwi Islands, and a childhood of barely seeing herself represented on screen. Miranda talks about how she built a stellar career, shooting to fame in The Sapphires and then, as an award-winning actor, decided to change what she saw on screen herself. ABC Radio National’s Daniel Browning joins the writer and star of Top End Wedding to discuss a ripping yarn that holds up a mirror to Australian society and its prejudices.
