Melanie Tait, playwright, journalist and Big Potato heiress

Melanie Tait joins host Savva Savas as they discuss life, creativity, and her complicated relationship with food.A feast of talent, Melanie is an award-winning journalist, author, radio broadcaster and playwright, and “one rip-snorter of a story teller”. She shares her journey from growing up in rural NSW in the shadow of “The Big Potato”, her life in London, travels in Portugal and her love of nostalgia. Through her poignant reflections, Melanie lends empowerment to those who may feel “different” and she does so with an abundance of wit and wisdom. As a playwright and broadcaster, Melanie knows the ups and downs of the entertainment industry. This is why she is a keen supporter of Actors Benevolent Fund which lends much-needed support to all those employed in the arts who have fallen on hard times through career lows.Produced and edited by Lauren McWhirterOriginal score by Russell TorranceSend us Fan MailTo find out more about the project and Savva - head to threefoodmemories.comInsta - @savvasavas @threefoodmemoriesEmail us at [email protected], we'd love to hear from you!  TFM is produced and edited by Lauren McWhirter with original music by Russell Torrance.
