Cover story- The first Cumming. Alan Cumming discusses the program he has put together for his inaugural Adelaide Cabaret Festival this month, which culminates with the world premiere of his own new show Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age. The self-styled "Scottish elf trapped in a middle-aged man's body" also discusses his high-flying career, his famous bar Club Cumming in New York, American politics, and social media.

She explores the current state of inclusiveness in the Australian classical music scene, and shares some best practice examples from overseas.
