Candy Bowers talks to David Hunt

Arts, Performing Arts

The mixed
race, gender-fluid and multi-talented Candy Bowers is launching
a new exciting podcast, Multi-Hypho with support from Arts
Centre Melbourne, Creative Victoria and bobb Creative.
The actor, comedian, writer and director has created this podcast
to embrace multiplicity both on the mic and behind the scenes,
celebrating diverse multi-hyphenates from across the creative
industries.
The idea came to Bowers last year when she was in Los Angeles
for a comedy screenwriting mentorship with Peter Saji, Black-ish
writer and co-creator of Mixed-ish. During her LA stint, she
participated in a podcast workshop.
“It dawned on me that there weren’t so many creative media

offerings regarding being mixed- raced and queer and gender-
fluid,” said Bowers. So when the pandemic derailed her Hollywood plans, Bowers turned back to her podcast idea,

feeling that “connection and community had become more important than ever.”
