In this week's episode of Quillette Cetera I sit down with my friend Melody Rachel, a multifaceted artist from New Zealand who currently resides in Sydney.

We discuss her upcoming one-woman show Demo, which she will be performing at the Sydney Fringe Festival. The show explores her complex feelings of alienation as she navigates through various communities—being a lesbian, a Christian, and an "anti-woke" artist who challenges the current heterodoxy of the Arts world.

The audio versions can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
