Tommy Murphy is an award-winning screenwriter and playwright based in Sydney.

Tommy adapted the Australian queer classic memoir Holding the Man for both stage and screen, while his limited series Significant Others was broadcast on the ABC last year. Most recently, he adapted Nevil Shute's On the Beach for the Sydney Theatre Company.

We discuss music by Whitney Houston, Olivier Messiaen, and Rufus Wainwright.

This conversation was recorded at Forbes Street Studios in Sydney. A huge thank you to Anthony Garvin for his support.
