Today Penny is talking and laughing with the prolific and inspiring award-winning writer; Lynda Chanwai-Earle. Lynda is the originator and performer in Ka Shue - Letters Home, which was the first mainstream theatre show for a universal audience by a Chinese New Zealander in Aotearoa. The show premiered in 1996 and Penny chats to Lynda after she remounted the show in the Auckland Writers Festival 2022. They talk about her gorgeous mother, fighting with a daughter with a frozen pizza, producing carbon neutral theatre and the wonders of orgasms. Also a bonus poetry performance and a list of the 11 best herbals teas for menopause, her favourite being G&T's.
