Fidel In the world that depends on technology, it is hard to miss breaking news on an 8.9 Magnitude Earthquake that kills 19 people or the news about a massacre of five people in the middle of Europe. Surprisingly enough, if I asked you about one of the greatest mass killings in the world after WWII, I wouldn’t be surprised if you said the war in Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan. The death toll in these three countries combined is recorded to be approximately 371,000 people since 2001according to Watson Institute – Cost of War. This is not close to half the great genocide of Rwanda that claimed almost a million lives. The Democratic Republic of Congo is well known for its richness in natural resources and minerals such as gold, diamond, coltan, petroleum to name a few.

    Media Release February 2012 Belvoir presents Every Breath Written & Directed by BENEDICT ANDREWS Set & Costume Designer ALICE BABIDGE Lighting Designer NICK SCHLIEPER Composer OREN AMBARCHI With JOHN HOWARD SHELLY LAUMAN ELOISE MIGNON ANGIE MILLIKEN DYLAN YOUNG BELVOIR ST THEATRE | UPSTAIRS 24 MARCH – 29 APRIL In 2012, critically acclaimed Australian theatre and opera director Benedict Andrews will add another title to his résumé: playwright. Andrews is making a highly anticipated return to Belvoir to direct his own play, Every Breath, for its world premiere. Andrews has created dozens of thrilling productions in an internationally successful career. He has been the recipient of numerous Best Director awards, both in Sydney and Europe. As well as Every Breath, Andrews‟ The Marriage of Figaro for Opera Australia is now playing at the Sydney Opera House, Gross und Klein (Sydney Theatre Company) is set to tour Europe, and his production of Caligula opens in May at the English National Opera. Despite such an international focus, Andrews relishes the opportunity to return to Belvoir. „I always enjoy returning to Belvoir,‟ he says. „I love the theatre‟s special intimacy… I‟m very pleased that Every Breath will come into the world there…‟ Every Breath features a stellar cast. Popular screen actor John Howard returns to the Sydney stage for the first time in over a decade, alongside Angie Milliken, who also returns to the Sydney theatre scene for the first time in nearly as long. Shelly Lauman (As You Like It) treads the Belvoir boards once again and is joined by Eloise Mignon (The Wild Duck) and Dylan Young (The Seagull).
