Neil Armfield
Mr Neil Armfield The honorary degree of Doctor of Letters was conferred upon Neil Armfield at the Faculty of Arts graduation ceremony held at 4.00pm on 21 April 2006. Neil Armfield, photo, courtesy UniNews. Citation Professor Masters, I have the honour to present Neil Armfield for admission to the degree of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa). While Neil Armfield is still only at the midpoint of his brilliant career, he has already made a distinctive contribution to the Arts and Humanities, especially through his work as a director of plays, operas and films, both within Australia and overseas. Neil was born in Sydney and is a graduate of this University, completing his Bachelor of Arts with Honours in English in 1977. While at university he began directing plays for Sydney University Dramatic Society, with such success that he was invited to direct his first professional production for the Nimrod Theatre Company in 1979. This production of David Allen’s Upside Down at the Bottom of the World, a new play about D H Lawrence in Australia, was also a great success and the production was subsequently invited to the 1980 Edinburgh Festival. Neil Armfield became artistic co-director of the Nimrod Theatre Company from 1980-82, confirming his special affinity for new Australian plays with landmark productions of Stephen Sewell’s Traitors and Welcome the Bright World and Louis Nowra’s Inside the Island. In 1983 he was appointed associate director of the Lighthouse Company in Adelaide. He is, however, most strongly associated with the work of Sydney’s Belvoir Street Theatre, having been a member of Company B since its inception in 1984.

Wagner Quarterly 130 September 2013
WAGNER SOCIETY nsw ISSUE NO 3 CELEBRATING THE MUSIC OF RICHARD WAGNER WAGNER QUARTERLY 130 SEPTEMBER 2013 IN MEMORIAM Joseph Ferfoglia (c. 1923-2012) – long-time honorary auditor for the Society – see Swan Lines. PRESIDENT’S REPORT Welcome to the third Wagner Quarterly for 2013. I have to confess that I have missed some of our Society’s more recent events, as I have taken my Wagner enthusiasm overseas. I am really sorry not to have attended these events, as on all accounts they have been outstandingly successful. Some fifty people, including her Excellency the Governor, attended the Dutchman seminar. This is described later in this Quarterly, as are the Lisa Gasteen meeting, the “Swords and Winterstorms” concert, and the more recent Neil Armfield talk, which I believe was fascinating. In June this year, I was fortunate enough to attend Ring Cycles in Riga, Milan and Longborough. And in August I went to the third and last cycle of the new Ring production Multiple multi-coloured Masters by Ottmar Hörl capering over in Bayreuth. Unfortunately, because of the decisions relating Bayreuth: Is he welcoming visitors or shooing us away? 300€ at to ticket allocations, there were many fewer Sydneysiders www.Bayreuth-shop.de in Bayreuth than in previous years. But a small ray of hope on this issue remains. In November the matter will again be The Riga Opera House is a jewel of a 19th century opera discussed at a meeting house at one end of a park which divides the mediaeval of the Administrative section of the city from the modern city.

A BRAND SPANKING NEW PRODUCTION iOTA PAUL CAPSIS TAMSIN CARROLL STARRING IN MEDIA KIT www.rockyhorror.com.au PRESSMEDIA RELEASE RELEASE RICHARD O’BRIEN’S THE WORLD’S FAVOURITE ROCK’N’ROLL MUSICAL DON’T DREAM IT … SEE IT THE WORLD’S FAVOURITE ROCK‘N’ROLL MUSICAL OPENS IN FEBRUARY WITH A BRAND SPANKING NEW PRODUCTION. It’s astounding, time is fleeting and The Rocky Horror Show is back. We’re starting another sensation and we’re definitely not under sedation! A new Australian production of the much-loved Rocky Horror Show will open Sydney’s brand new Star Theatre in February 2008 and tickets go on sale on Monday 27 August. Co-Producer Paul Dainty, Chairman of Dainty Consolidated Entertainment says: “It’s a thrill to be bringing The Rocky Horror Show to the Australian stage. It is a timeless piece of theatre that has spanned decades. I know Australian audiences – both new and old fans – will love this show which stars some of our finest talents.” “This fresh production is an exciting new take on the world’s favourite rock ‘n’ roll musical. It brings together the hottest cast I have seen for a long time” commented co-producer Howard Panter, Joint Chief Executive Officer and Creative Director of the UK’s Ambassador Theatre Group. The Rocky Horror Show is an institution and one of theatre’s most endearing and outrageously fun shows. Its well-known and much-loved storyline goes something like this: Squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet knock on the door of an eerie house to use the phone after their car breaks down in the rain on a dark and stormy night.

Theatre and Metatheatre in Hamlet
Theatre and Metatheatre in Hamlet KATE FLAHERTY 'I don't really agree with the notion of setting the plays anywhere in particular. When asked that question about Hamlet I tend to say that it was set on the stage.'-Neil Armfield1 According to his melancholy admission, neither man nor woman delights Hamlet. Yet when a troupe of players arrives at the court of Elsinore, he makes a gleefully reiterated plea that they perform for him; here and now: 'We'll have a speech straight. Come, give us a taste of your quality. Come, a passionate speech.'2 Without hesitation, and to further prompt the Player's performance, he nominates and begins a speech himself. At this moment, theatre is consciously made the centre of the action. It is one of several instances of metatheatre in Hamlet. Others include Rosencrantz's report of the success of the boy players (2.2.319-46), Hamlet's advice to the Players (3.2.1-40), Hamlet's 'antic disposition' and of course 'The Mousetrap' or play-within-the-play (3.2.80-248). Hamlet is a play deeply concerned with notions of play: the power of play, the danger of play3 and the threshold between play and reality. Many of the instances of metatheatricality mentioned above have received insistent critical attention. Hamlet's advice to the Players has been used both to support and to contest the hypothesis that Shakespeare there puts forward a manifesto of naturalism.4 Likewise the play-within-the-play has been taken up repeatedly as a key to the dramatic dynamics of the play by which it is encased.5 Hamlet's 'antic disposition' - whether analysed as a purposeful strategy within a unified psychological profile, or as a complex subversion of representational logic - seems to generate endless speculation.6 The arrival of the Players and the First Player's impromptu performance, however, seem to provoke relatively little inquiry.

VICE Studios and Screen Australia Present in Association with Film Victoria and Create NSW a Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production
VICE Studios and Screen Australia present In association with Film Victoria and Create NSW A Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production Written and Directed by Mirrah Foulkes Starring Mia Wasikowska and Damon Herriman Produced by Michele Bennett, Nash Edgerton and Danny Gabai Run Time: 105 Minutes Press Contact Samuel Goldwyn Films [email protected] SYNOPSES Short Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. Long Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. In a visceral and dynamic live-action reinterpretation of the famous 16th century puppet show, writer director MIRRAH FOULKES turns the traditional story of Punch and Judy on its head and brings to life a fierce, darkly comic and epic female-driven revenge story, starring MIA WASIKOWSKA and DAMON HERRIMAN. 2 DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT JUDY AND PUNCH is a dark, absurd fable treading a line between fairy-tale, fantasy and gritty realism, all of which work together to establish a unique tone while upsetting viewer expectations. When Vice Studios’ Eddy Moretti and Danny Gabai approached me with the idea of making a live action, feminist revenge film about Punch and Judy, they encouraged me to let my imagination go wild and take the story wherever I felt it needed to go.

Performing Shakespeare and Aboriginality in Australia
Multicultural Shakespeare: Translation, Appropriation and Performance vol. 8 (23), 2011 71 DOI: 10.2478/v10224-011-0006-5 Emma Cox “What’s past is prologue”: Performing Shakespeare and Aboriginality in Australia “Come unto these yellow sands, / And then take hands” —The Tempest (1.2.375-76) At the beginning of the second Act of The Tempest, Antonio compels Sebastian to his murderous purpose, perceiving distance from civilization and conventional political power, not to mention an heir-apparent, as a rationale for immediate action: “what’s past is prologue” (2.1.253). The theatrical metaphor is, for Antonio, a means by which to assert his mastery over history. However, as the play unfolds and the past makes its claim upon the protagonists, Antonio’s words echo as a reminder of history’s continual presence, its inextricable implication in the contemporary world as it is made and remade. The entanglement of history and presence forms the context of the Australian performances of Shakespeare I examine here. These works are informed by the cultural and territorial dispossession, as well as the ongoing strategies of resistance, that since colonization have conditioned the lived realities of Aboriginal Australians. In keeping with a pattern established in the early days of British settlement, performances of Shakespeare’s plays are a staple of many Australian theatrical calendars. Increasingly, and often at their most effective, these performances transact within and for their local contexts, negotiating contemporary Australian cultures and identities. In light of the solid body of so-called alternative or revisionist Shakespeare scholarship, particularly in the area of postcolonialism —the critical basis of John Golder and Richard Madeleine’s observation, “Aboriginal Australians have good reasons to be suspicious of the ‘ideological work’ Shakespeare can be ‘made to perform’” (9)—it is striking to consider that “Aboriginalized” performances have provided some of the most innovative and important Shakespearean theatre in Australia in recent years.
