Sydney Writers' Festival live stream - Great Adaptations - Batemans Bay

Join us at Batemans Bay Library for a front-row seat to some of the most anticipated talks and panels from this year’s Sydney Writers’ Festival, streamed live and free thanks to the State Library NSW.

Hear from acclaimed authors, powerful storytellers, and fresh voices — all without leaving town.

Great Adaptations

Screen adaptations breathe new life into books, expanding their audiences and reimagining their worlds.

Crime writer Mick Herron’s Slough House thriller series was adapted into the award-winning Apple TV series Slow Horses, starring Gary Oldman, and playwright Suzie Miller’s Prima Facie received international acclaim, including a Laurence Olivier Award, before it was adapted into both a novel and a film.

Get a behind-the-scenes insight into the adaptation process and how reimagining their stories has influenced their careers, with Mick and Suzie in conversation with host Benjamin Law.
