Join us for a night of storytelling and a deep dive into the craft of creating audio stories to celebrate forthcoming podcast Tramlines.

Wednesday 26 April 2023 | 6:00 pm | The Capitol

Join host Mel Cranenburgh in conversation with award-winning podcast producer Beth Atkinson-Quinton, The Age’s Arts Editor Elizabeth Flux and beloved YA author Nova Weetman for a night of storytelling and a deep dive into the craft of creating audio stories.

Celebrating Naarm/Melbourne’s unique tram network, ‘Tramlines’ is a new podcast produced by Melbourne’s City of Literature Office and curated by a multitude of creative participants, producers, writers and musicians. Making use of the location, time and sounds from the tramline to create a work which is part audio book, part spoken word and part locative literature, this unique event will change the way you think about public transport – and what you listen to while riding.

Tramlines will be launched weekly from 8 May 2023 available to all on Spotify, Apple, Google.

This event is presented by the Melbourne City of Literature Office in partnership with RMIT Culture.
