“I think optimism is important for storytelling, for me anyway, and finding things that are life affirming and keeping that beginner’s mind – keeping that openeyed, open-hearted awareness.”
For more than 30 years Claudia Karvan has captivated audiences, breathing life into some of the most intriguing characters and compelling stories to grace our screens. From The Heartbreak Kid and The Secret Life of Us to Love My Way and Bump, her brilliant performances and signature down to earth nature have earned her a global following.
Join Claudia and Zan for a beautiful, optimistic episode which centres on songs of hope. Claudia’s gift for storytelling is on show, as her song choices come joyously alive on screen.
“It’s power! It’s like plugging yourself into an electric socket.”
Set against the backdrop of her parent’s Kings Cross night club, Claudia’s unconventional childhood featured a school-free year in Bali. These formative years were shaped by a unique and dynamic culture, a cast of colourful characters and a single cassette that never left the tape deck.
“A lot of, you know, drama, and spirituality and theatre I guess for a young kid… it was amazing!”
8:30pm Tuesday on ABC.
