Episode 31 - Kaleigh Wilkie-Smith at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe

In today’s episode we chat to the lovely Kaleigh Wilkie-Smith of Pinwheel Productions. Kaleigh discusses being a female director at the beginning of her career. What she hopes to achieve in the industry and the work she wants to create. Kaleigh has a wonderful, infectious energy and wisdom beyond her years she is a force to be reckoned with. A director to definitely watch. Australia Director, performer and producer, Kaleigh started her career as a musical theatre performer, receiving BA in musical theatre from Australian Institute of Music. She set up Pinwheel Productions with partner Alex Giles. Their latest show, Switch Witchetty’s Almanac of Everything, is an adventure story for all the family. Giving us beautiful messages about friendship, love and saving our world. ABOUT THE SHOW The Almanac has been destroyed. Stories of inconvenient love, outrageous adventure and implausible piracy could be lost forever, unless Switch Witchetty (an ambitious fool) can chronicle every story ever told. This Australian production turns original stories into folklore with music, mayhem and ordinary bed sheets. On his quest to complete the Almanac, Switch hears stories such as An Extraordinary Boulder, The Ghastly Little Girl and The Grimacing Ghost and How to Keep an Island in Your Pocket. When the kingdom needs a storyteller, Switch must choose – hero or fool?
