Amanda Palmer presents an intimate conversation with Tim Minchin, recorded February 20, 2020, in Sydney, AUS. Tim Minchin is a world-renounded Australian comedian, actor, writer, musician, composer, lyricist, and director. He is the composer and lyricist of the Olivier Award-winning, Tony Award-winning and Grammy Award-nominated show Matilda the Musical, based on the book by Roald Dahl. His musical Groundhog Day, based on the 1993 film, opened in London in 2016, winning his second Olivier Award, and opened on Broadway in spring 2017. He is the subject of the 2008 documentary, Rock N Roll Nerd. Tim played the role of rock star Atticus Fetch on Showtime's Californication. In this interview, we talked about expanding your empathy, exploring your self-loathing in order to find peace, decoupling intellectualism from emotion, the power of The Internet to share the stories of the disenfranchised, combining radical honesty with compassion, how a safe space can people help heal, the gift of being told that you are not special, and how our job is to do what we want on stage. @timminchin www.timminchin.com No ads.
