With episodes nearing 300 in the STAGES archive, it’s time to revisit conversations featured in our previous seasons.

STAGES spotlights such episodes, in case you missed them the first time ‘round - or so you can simply savour, a second listen.

Either way, you’ll accessing precious oral histories from the people who were there, on and around our stages.

For 26 years Tony Delroy was at the helm of a nightly, nationally broadcast, late show called Nightlife on the ABC. He fronted the show with barely a sick day offering his listeners an informative entertainment into the early hours of the morning.

Delroy’s enormous breadth of interest and knowledge helped to garner his success, along with a passionate understanding of his audience. Nightlife featured a team of experts every week - motoring, literature, movies, American politics, finance, superannuation and travel. He presented engaging variety that supported the delivery of current affairs and the news.

Tony has now stepped down from this night owl existence and has embraced retirement; and his doona!

He joined STAGES in July 2019 and we now shine a spotlight, on the career and craft of Mr Tony Delroy.
