The Aside Podcasts are a free resource supported by Drama Victoria - Australia’s oldest Drama Association In this episode of The Aside, we speak with Dr. Rachael Jacobs who is a drama researcher, drama education lecturer, community artist, and the Greens candidate for Grayndler. Following the announcement of recent cuts to Arts and Public Education in the 2022 Federal Budget, we sat down to talk in basic terms about what a budget is, what the budget said about Arts and Education and how teachers and artists can make their voices heard.
