Documentary producer and podcaster Mike Williams presents ‘Who gives a fork?’ — a mix of original audio stories performed live. Hear about a bricklayer’s quest for fame, a family holiday misadventure, and the real reason why your workplace has run out of forks.

After taking this show across Europe, Mike is bringing it home to Melbourne. This is a rare chance to experience audio documentaries performed live by one of Australia’s most prolific storytellers.

The night will also feature a story from local podcast producer and composer, Zoltan Fecso, whose music and sound art practice explore the experience of active listening.

‘A lighthearted take on documentary. Fast, self-deprecating and sometimes brash humour that’s often absent from podcast playlists’ — The Guardian 

‘Sparkles with fun and silliness and smarts and was just the thing I needed for a laugh when I was down’ — Gretta Cohn, Transmitter  

‘Pushes local documentaries in a different direction — it sounds like Australia’ — The Australian Newspaper
