Episode 6: Mike Finch from Circus Oz (Part 1 )

Mike Finch, founding member of Australia's Circus Monoxide and ex-CEO/ co-Artistic Director of Circus Oz, sits down with Miss Radida for a nice long chat. It was such an entertaining conversation that once again we have split the interview into two halves for your listening pleasure. Here is Part 1, where we chat about how Mike got into working in the performing arts industry, life on outback Australian roads with a fledgling circus in the 80s, having meetings rudely interrupted by Australian fauna, and finding himself applying to be artistic director of Circus Oz- by ACCIDENT. As usual, we intersperse the episode with brilliant music, this time of course from the Circus Oz Band's extensive back catalogue. Have a listen, and join us next week for Part 2 of this interview.
