We're joined by Laila Thaker of Ilbijerri Theatre to discuss representation and collaboration with and within First Nations’ Theatres and how attitudes to acting and theatre-making have changed in the course of her career as an artist.

Representation and Collaboration in First Nations Theatre, ft. Laila Thaker

Collaboration in theatre rarely happens without conflict, no matter what level you’re operating on. From friction between writers and directors to difficult actors to carrying on in the face of vitriolic reviews; everyone has their horror stories. But did particular conflicts make for a better or worse show? <br /><br />Over ten episodes, each featuring a different guest, regular collaborators Gabriel Bergmoser and Peter Blackburn dive deep into instances of creative conflict in both independent and mainstage theatre, every week exploring the central question; was it worth it?
