In this episode, Adam and Budi are joined by Steven Gaultney and continue the Audio New Play Festival with a conversation with Australia-based playwrights of the upcoming audio play TALES FROM THE ARCADIA, Justin Tan and Sabina Gerardi.

Justin Tan is a graduate of Company 2020's BFA Acting course at the Victorian College of the Arts. A Singaporean of Chinese descent currently based in Melbourne and a lover of history, Justin hopes to create work that questions and challenges our understanding of our modern world. This is his first time writing an original work.

At the VCA, Justin has played the titular ‘King John’, Allie in ‘Snore’, and Johnnypateenmike in ‘The Cripple of Inishmaan’. With a background in TV and Radio production, Justin has also provided commentary at the 28th Southeast Asian Games, voiced and edited SAFTI MI’s Corporate Video 2015-17, and hosted the “Throwback Thursday Show” on Radio Heatwave.

Sabina Gerardi is a theatre-maker and actor. She is a 2020 BFA Theatre graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts, with additional training in screenwriting, mask and puppetry. Sabina is a research-led devisor, with a particular interest in political history and social satire. At the VCA, Sabina devised an experimental piece, 'The General Secretariat and I', a marathon, audience-led fake Soviet history writing saga, with Finn McGrath.

Since lockdown, Sabina has been exploring digitally driven story-telling. She co-devised Detective Attention for Zoom, Jerry for headphones, and Baccarat (by The German Romantics) with both pre-filmed and live online elements. The latter was selected for The Theatre Times' International Online Theatre Festival 2021. Sabina also co-hosts 'Fib: a podcast about lies' with Clare Taylor.
