Video: 2017 Helpmann Awards Red Carpet Special

The Helpmann Awards are not just about handing out trophies. They are also about gowns, lights and the red carpet.

Our intrepid roving reporter, Darcy Oliver, braved the red carpet to catch up with many of this years nominees and industry stars to ask: what makes a good acceptance speech, their favourite show and dream role.

A huge thanks to Matt Iskandar for his stella camera work.
