Steve Cavanagh, Mel Bradley and Colm McCready

Author Steve Cavanagh, theatre-maker Colm McCready and spoken word artist Mel Bradley.

This week Marie-Louise Kerr speaks to award winning, best-selling author Steve Cavanagh - and creator of conman turned lawyer Eddie Flynn about his new book ‘Witness 8’, which has the premise: what if the only witness to a murder is more twisted than the killer? Steve talks about why he sets his novels in New York, being called the ‘British John Grisham’ and he even puts out there, that we may get a possible TV adaption about Eddie Flynn himself. Spoken word artist, writer, playwright/ theatre-maker, multimedia artist and actor, Mel Bradley, talks about gathering the untold stories of women, her unhealthy obsession in the Virgin Mary, which led to the powerful project ‘For the Love of Mary’ and her passion for storytelling. And theatre-maker Colm McCready tells Marie-Louise why his work inspired by campy horror films and queer pop culture. His recent work includes debut solo show Scaredy Fat, which premiered to rave reviews, and his new show ‘Shame Show’ is about disempowering shame, and being proud of who you are. Plus, Twin Peaks and some dodgy crime dramas are added to the Culture Café shelves.
