Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, let's move to other great news locally. The
incredible Sarah Snook was in town now. She graduated from
Scotch College back in two thousand and five, and as
she caught up with her current head of Theater Arts
at the school for a podcast. Not only that, her
twelve year twelve daughter Charlotte was part of it, and

(00:20):
Charlotte led this wide ranging interview for the podcast. And
it's a bit of a full circle moment.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Quite a full circle moment considering that when you were
in year twelve, I was in my mother's stomach and
she was pregnant with me and I've heard that you
had to go down to the top shop to get
her wraps. Is that right? I've heard that from a
few people at the time. But it's so lovely that
we could have a little moment now, yeah, and come
together now that I'm in year twelve and finishing now.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Of course, she I know Golden Globe, she won a
Primetime Emmy Award, and her big break really came about
twenty eighteen internationally at least for her role as Shiv
in Succession, which is just amazing. But she spoke about
how it was an early role in one of the
Scotch College's production of Peter Pan. That well, she was
a little bit disappointed.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
In I do remember playing Wendy.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
I had a great time. I think I probably wanted
to play Peter Pan, was the honest answer, because Peter
Pan seemed to have more fun and Wendy was looking
after the boys.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
How cool though, that she went back to her old school.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah, yeah, I do love this story. Remember we spoke
to Nicola, the head of the theater arts a while
ago about this, just when Sarah had won whatever she'd
won Emmy's Golden Globes. In between what an angel she
was and no casting regret. You know this, this is
taught Sarah. This is a learning moment for you. Sarah.
You're going to be a future star one day, but

(01:41):
you can't have everything you want in high school.
