At the end of 2015, Sydney Theatre Company's Artistic Director Andrew Upton and Executive Director Patrick McIntyre sat down at our home base, The Wharf in Walsh Bay, to talk about the plays STC has coming up in 2016.

Here, we present a recording of that conversation, in which Andrew gave some fascinating insight into how he came to select the plays in his final season for STC and what he'll miss about working here.

To find out more about STC's plays, insight events like this one that happen throughout the year, and to receive behind-the-scenes content, sign up to our enewsletter.

We hope you enjoy listening in.
