ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Settle in with a swig of whiskey and grab your guitar, time for a bush tale with the help of an unexpected companion.. 🐪
We're so excited to share some amazing new radio play stories from local creatives in Naarm (Melbourne)
Script Roulette is proudly supported by Arts Centre Melbourne and Ticketek as a part of PLAY
This episode, we listen to an audio drama inspired by a true story! Jill Colwell entered The Great Australian Camel Race across the Simpson Desert in May 1988, resulting in drama tragedy and discovery. Our story is inspired by that journey.
