After 37 years and almost 9000 episodes, Neighbours has taken a bow. To commemorate the recent airing of the last ever episode, come join an in-conversation with writers from across the show’s history as they reflect on navigating serialised storytelling, developing and writing for characters who were not their own creation, and what lessons they took with them onto the many other projects they’ve contributed to.
Whether you were a fan, worked on the show, or neither - this discussion on the craft, joys and challenges of what it was like to work on Australia’s longest-running drama will be of interest to all. Come along, learn some hard-fought lessons, and make a toast to the end of one of Australia’s most enduring institutions.
