A sceptic. A paranoiac. A criminal. A migrant. A hostage.

Minola Theatre presents BEGOTTEN, a five-part audio drama by award-winning playwright Bianca Butler Reynolds. Join us each week as we meet five generations of women: Alice, Eileen, Clea, Hazel and Laoise. Hear a century of their stories, encompassing grief, war, sanity, loss and revenge. Listen as they grapple with powerful questions about heredity, and what is passed down family lines. Are we doomed to make the same mistakes our parents did? Can we heal a wound that is generations old? How much do the secrets of the past haunt us in the present?

Stage Whispers calls BEGOTTEN “a fascinating tapestry” with “superb sound design” and “visual images that sing”. Audiences praise it as “emotional”, “raw”, “powerful”, “spellbinding” and “heart touching”. Listen each week wherever you get your podcasts, or download the full drama on demand from minolatheatre.com.au/begotten.

    Surprisingly good
    I found this podcast when searching for Aussie made podcasts. I wasn’t entirely sure if I would like it but I gave the episodes a shot and I’m so happy I did! This series is so different from anything I’ve heard. I don’t want to give anything away, because it was fun figuring out what was happening, but give this one a listen. The episodes aren’t that long; you could potentially finish it on your commute. But seriously, listen. I finished the last episode and honestly thought to myself, “that was really good.” I hope you do too. Brissie has some seriously good stuff coming out of it!!
