Kate Box & Madeleine Sami - DEADLOCH - Actors

This episode I am joined by the delightfully talented 'Kate Box' and 'Madeleine Sami.' Who both feature in leading roles of 'Deadloch.' Which is a fantastic thriller comedy on 'Prime Video' Australia.  Please head to www.primevideo.com and start your 30 day free trial.  'Kate Box' is an Australian stage, film and television actress. I know her for her role as 'Lou Kelly' in 'Wentworth' but her acting credits are endless and I feel like her career is only just heating up.  'Madeleine Sami' is a New Zealand actress, director, comedian and musician. She started her acting career in theatre before moving to television, where she created, wrote, and starred in 'Super City.' They both are fantastic in ‘Deadloch.’ The latest comedy from ‘the Kate’s.’ (Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan) Who you may know as the creators of ‘The Katering Show!’ However, this latest series 'Deadloch' is set in ‘Tasmania,' in a town preparing for its Winter Festival when a local man turns up dead. Two detectives very different in style played by ‘Kate’ and ‘Madeleine’ are forced to work together and I can tell you this story is a bloody riot.  I will ask how hard it was to get the comedy right and if 'Madeleine’s' performance could be distracting at times for ‘Kate Box.’ We will unpack LGBTI content and if we have come a long way in queer storytelling.  We will also talk about the amazing supporting roles and if having a fun set makes a good series. Plus we will get plenty of exclusives from behind the scenes of ‘Deadloch’ which I can tell you keeps getting better with each episode - so check it out on ‘Prime Video’ Australia. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
