As it nears its 50th birthday, the Sydney Opera House is looking to the future with a 'Up Next' - a new podcast which talks to the artists who'll define the next 50 years of arts and culture in Australia. Join host Courtney Ammenhauser as she chats to a spectacular lineup of artists from a variety of creative disciplines as they make their way to one of the most famous performance venues in the world.

In this bonus episode, Courtney talks with the Michael Mohammed Ahmed, Western Sydney writer, playwright and founder of Sweatshop Literacy Movement. They dive deep into his short-lived acting career, his creative journey from novels to plays, and what it means to have his communities represented on the stages of the Opera House.

Episodes of 'Up Next' are released monthly and you'll find them wherever you get your podcasts.
