This week we’re bringing you stories from a gathering of comics and cartoonists, known as Read to Me.
Millennial Falcon – Evie Hilliar
First up we hear from Read To Me co-producer Evie Hilliar about what makes Read To Me so special, before reading her tale Millennial Falcon. You can watch an animation with Evie’s illustrations below and find more of her work at @yeevz_ on Instagram.
The Blue Whale – Fionn McCabe
Then, we take you into the Knox Street Bar in Sydney to experience the vibes of this special community as Gabe Clark warms up the audience. You’ll hear Read To Me co-founder Fionn McCabe delivering his brand new story, The Blue Whale.
If you’re curious to see the beautiful visuals that accompanied Fionn’s tale, you can find the graphic version published in the upcoming edition of The Suburban Review. Follow him on Instagram at @fionnmccabe
A Very Special Star – Thomas Crowe
Finally, animator Thomas Crowe takes us on a galactic journey of self-discovery with his piece, A Very Special Star. Follow him on instagram at @thommycrowe
A huge thank you to our contributors and the Read To Me team for sharing their stories with us – we can’t wait for the next event in May and we hope to see you there too. Follow Read to Me on Instagram at @readtome_
If you have a creative community whose stories deserve to be broadcast far and wide, we’d love to hear about it! Reach out to us at www.allthebestradio.com
