Hannah Marshall takes over Drama at SPP
Listen now
Description
When Hannah Marshall was picked for the role of Head of Scripted Development at South Pacific Pictures, the only surprise, frankly, was that it took them so long to give her the job. Her track record in drama - sorry, "Scripted TV Shows" - is phenomenal, on both side of the Tasman. You've seen her in everything from Raised by Refugees - for which she was also the Story Producer - to Packed to the Rafters, for which she was nominated for a Logie. As well as an actor, she's an award-winning writer, director and creator of the acclaimed drama Alibi. So does her new job mean she's backing away from hands-on production and performance? Simon Morris talks with Hannah Marshall about her new job.
