NITV Radio - On Air Program 9/7/2025
Coming up on this episode of NITV Radio we continue to celebrate NAIDOC Week 2025 and the theme, The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy. I travelled to Boorloo, Perth, over the weekend to attend the National NAIDOC Awards where I was honoured to speak with some of the award winners such as the iconic Christine Anu who won Creative Talent, as well as the legendary Michael Long who was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award. NITV Radio was there on the Blak carpet to chat to mob about what NAIDOC means to them as well as the significance of this years theme. NITV Radio's Dante Brex also catches up with three passionate young people ready to become the next generation of Indigenous leaders.

How to make it on Broadway, plus a twisted tale challenges these actors
What does it take to write a Tony-winning musical? Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty are the friends and songwriting team behind big Broadway musicals like Ragtime and Anastasia. They're also voting members for New York City's famous theatre industry prize, the Tony Awards. They join us as Tony Awards season takes off. Back stage... The make up artist. Meet the veteran head of WHAM (that's wardrobe, hair and make-up) Fiona Cooper-Sutherland as she transforms Christine Anu into Hermes, the silver god for the musical Hadestown. In the classic play The Maids by Jean Genet, two servant sisters act out a sinister game -- playing at murdering their mistress. Then the mistress herself enters the plot. Canberra theatre company The Street is staging this absurdist and chilling drama. We hear from actors Christina Falsone, Sophia Marzone, Natasha Vickery and director Caroline Stacey. The original sound design is by Kimmo Vennonen.
