If you've seen a performance by Bangarra Dance Theatre in the last 12 years, then you've seen the work of Jacob Nash. Jacob is Bangarra's head of design and he has created the dazzling sets for every Bangarra show since 2010. He is also a key creative force at the Sydney Festival.
Also, we hear a performance from the new opera The Priestess of Morphine, based on the life of Baroness Gertrud von Puttkamer who wrote lesbian erotic poems in the early 1900s under the pen name Marie-Madeleine, and we learn about the overlap between theatre and philosophy in Ancient Greece and a new playwriting competition that considers the absence of women in Greek philosophy.
