This month Nina and Rosalind chat about shows and events from Circus WA, West Australian Opera, The Last Great Hunt and Link Dance Company… and we had to dive back into the Indian Ocean Craft Triennial because it’s so massive!

Plus did you know the 2021 UBUD Writers & Readers Festival is taking place right here in Perth?

And that’s not all!
