Seventy years on and Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire is still considered one of the Western theatrical canon's most powerful portrayals of sexual repression and class inequality. In honour of Silo Theatre's 20th year, Silo legend Shane Bosher has updated the play to sit within Trump's America and stuffed it with a stellar cast. Playing Stella Kowalski, the wonderful Morgana O'Reilly drops in to the studio to talk Southern accents, greasy t-shirts and Cigarettes After Sex.

Filmmaker Ursula Williams drops in to the studio to talk documentaries, art installations and her place within the 2017 Loading Docs initiative. As one of 10 directors each making a three minute short on the topic of 'diversity', Ursula introduces us to her subject: Auckland artist John Radford... and his sleazy real estate alter-ego Ron Jadford. With his work focussed on the destruction of inner city domestic architecture, Radford asks: what will exist where you live 100 years from now?

Writer/broadcaster Ali Ikram is one of the panelists taking part in Auckland Museum's latest curated evening, LATE 2017: Home Sweet Home? A Question of Immigration. A hot-button topic not only in our election lead up, but around the world post Brexit and Trump, the important issue of immigration is a sensitive, nuanced one to tackle. So with that in mind, who will be taking part in Wednesday's discussion and how does Ali think it will all go down?
