Why Miriam Margolyes courts controversy — 'I know what I'm doing‪'‬ The Stage Show

    • Performing Arts

In her memoir Oh Miriam!, the British-Australian actress, writer and comedian Miriam Margolyes shares hugely entertaining stories from her life with her trademark wit and disarming candour. Now, she's bringing those stories — and more — to the stage.

Also, 37 is a new play from the funny and vernacular Palawa/Pakana playwright, Nathan Maynard. In the era of AFL footballer Adam Goodes' famous war cry, two Aboriginal footy players in a regional club confront the personal cost of either staying quiet or speaking out about racism. We're joined by the show's star, Ngali Shaw, and director, Isaac Drandic.
