Louisa Mignone joins us to chat about her first time assistant directing and what it really takes to bring Rebecca to life on stage at Melbourne Theatre Company.

From reacting to the script for the first time to landing the job, Louisa takes us inside the creative process of this gothic classic. We talk about learning from the powerhouse team behind the show, trusting your gut, and shifting from actor to creative, and how that change means seeing the bigger picture in a whole new way.

It’s an honest, funny, and deeply inspiring look at collaboration, courage, and the beautiful chaos of making theatre.
