  • Brett Sheehy CONFESSIONS of a GATEKEEPER
    Address To The Inaugural Currency House/ Australia Business Arts Foundation 2009 Arts And Public Life Breakfast 31 March At The Sofi tel, Melbourne On Collins Brett Sheehy CONFESSIONS OF A GATEKEEPER Hello and welcome everyone. I quickly want to thank Harold for introducing me today. Harold barely knew me when, in November 2001, he fl ew from Melbourne to Sydney to attend my fi rst ever festival launch in Customs House down at Sydney’s Circular Quay. His reason was simple - he loves the arts, I was a fairly new kid on the festival block, and he wanted to show his support. And that support has continues to this day, unabated. I appreciate it tremendously, and it’s a privilege to fi nally share a stage with him, in what is now, mutually, our hometown. So thank you Harold. These confessions of an arts gatekeeper which I’m going to share this morning are personal, frequently intuitive, born of 25 years of observation and experience in the arts, but also not absolutes – all are debatable, but not one, I think, is disprovable. An arts gatekeeper is really a kind of artistic ‘door bitch’, someone charged with the responsibility of deciding when the ‘velvet rope’ is lifted, and which art will, and will not, be seen by the public of Australia. And while the metaphor of the ‘velvet rope’ makes light of it here, the role is actually riven with anxiety and stress – so important do I think the responsibility is, and so potentially charged with hubris. Gatekeepers come in many guises – festival directors, artistic directors of theatre and dance companies, museum and gallery curators, music directors of opera houses and orchestras, arts centre programmers, book publishers and record producers.

  • ASTROMAN by ALBERT BELZ Welcome
    ASTROMAN BY ALBERT BELZ Welcome Over the course of this year our productions have taken you to London, New York, Norway, Malaysia and rural Western Australia. In Astroman we take you much closer to home – to suburban Geelong where it’s 1984. ASTROMAN In this touching and humorous love letter to the 80s, playwright Albert Belz wraps us in the highs and lows of growing up, the exhilaration of learning, and what it means to be truly courageous. BY ALBERT BELZ Directed by Sarah Goodes and Associate Director Tony Briggs, and performed by a cast of wonderful actors, some of them new to MTC, Astroman hits the bullseye of multigenerational appeal. If ever there was a show to introduce family and friends to theatre, and the joy of local stories on stage – this is it. At MTC we present the very best new works like Astroman alongside classics and international hits, from home and abroad, every year. As our audiences continue to grow – this year we reached a record number of subscribers – tickets are in high demand and many of our performances sell out. Subscriptions for our 2019 Season are now on sale and offer the best way to secure your seats and ensure you never miss out on that must-see show. To see what’s on stage next year and book your package visit mtc.com.au/2019. Thanks for joining us at the theatre. Enjoy Astroman. Brett Sheehy ao Virginia Lovett Artistic Director & CEO Executive Director & Co-CEO Melbourne Theatre Company acknowledges the Yalukit Willam Peoples of the Boon Wurrung, the First Peoples of Country on which Southbank Theatre and MTC HQ stand, and we pay our respects to all of Melbourne’s First Peoples, to their ancestors and Elders, and to our shared future.

  • Florian Zeller Christopher Hampton
    THE TRUTH BY Florian Zeller TRANSLATED BY Christopher Hampton DIRECTED BY Sarah Giles Melbourne Theatre Company acknowledges the Yalukit Willam Peoples of the Boon Wurrung, the First Peoples of Country on which Southbank Theatre and MTC HQ stand. We pay our respects to all of Melbourne’s First Peoples, to their ancestors and Elders, and to our shared future. WELCOME Florian Zeller is a name familiar to MTC audiences after our 2017 co-production of his play, The Father. Since then his star has been continuously on the rise and saw the film adaption of that play take home this year’s Academy Awards for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor. Another of his plays is currently receiving a film adaptation as well. Zeller is a towering talent and The Truth reinforces his deft skill of drawing audiences into layered stories which are never as straightforward as they appear. We are thrilled to be producing this play in its English translation by Zeller’s long-time collaborator and co-Academy Award-winner, Christopher Hampton. In The Truth, comedy shines through the underlying bed of deception and marital manipulations, and with a cast featuring the comic pedigree of Michala Banas, Stephen Curry, Bert LaBonté and Katrina Milosevic you really are set for an enjoyable night at the theatre. Directed by Sarah Giles, this production is the fourth Australian premiere in our 2021 program, and the second in our Act 2 suite of six productions. The Truth and other international works are beautifully complemented by an array of new Australian plays being presented in the months ahead.

  • Fulltimeoperationsince1996
    | 23 is 10! | Welcome to a celebration of our 10th birthday. First a word from Tony MacGregor, Chair of the Open City Board of Management. This company was established by Keith Gallasch and Virginia Baxter in 1987 for the collaborative works they performed in theatres, galleries and on radio. In 1994 Open City began to publish RealTime+OnScreen which has been a fulltime operation since 1996. FROM THE CHAIR I’ve been free-associating around those words—real, time—looking for a RT61 JUNE / JULY 04 way into writing about this thing I’ve been hovering around for these past 10 years. Longer really, because RealTime was an idea long before it was a reality, one of those determinations that Keith Gallasch and Virginia Baxter make and then work into existence: “mainstream theatre criticism is hopeless, we need a journal that deals properly with the per- formance community in all its hybrid, messy complexity.” (Or words to that effect.) And, lo, it was so. How many ideas have taken shape, been given form in the endless conversa- tion around that generous wooden table in the kitchen at Womerah Avenue, Darlinghurst where Gallasch and Baxter have lived since their arrival from Adelaide in 1986? Like so many projects which have been founded on their energy and ideas—Troupe in Adelaide, Open City, all those performances—once deemed A Good Idea, RealTime seemed inevitable, an idea made real through that seemingly irresistible combination of clear argument, creative invention, per- sonal passion, A-grade grant writing The RealTime team: Keith Gallasch, Dan Edwards, Gail Priest, Virginia Baxter Heidrun Löhr skills and the sheer bloody mindedness that they bring to all their projects.

  • Towards a Cultural Policy for Great Events P
    B. García, Towards a Cultural Policy for Great Events p. 148 e) Government joint initiatives The previous points indicate how, up to year 2000, the approach of most Australian government bodies to support the cultural programme was rather vague and limited. To explain this, scholars such as Louw and Turner have pointed out at the conflict that took place in terms of ‘ownership’ of the Games (2000, pers. comm., 25 Aug). The Games had been awarded to the city of Sydney, so they were designed to be the responsibility of the state of NSW, and the federal government was to have only a secondary role in terms of decision-making and resource allowances. According to Louw and Turner, this led not only to a lack of coordination between state and federal bodies, but also to a certain sense of competition among different states which also wanted to benefit from the Games and had priorities and interests differing from the ones in Sydney and NSW. On some occasions, this led to a defensive posture on the part of SOCOG or NSW. This is best exemplified in their relationship with Queensland, a state very proactive and interested in taking part of the Olympic project which was not allowed a degree of participation as high as it would have expected. The low contributions of federal arts funding during the first three years of the Olympiad could also be understood as a measure to avoid conflicts among states. However, in preparation for the Olympic period, local, state and federal bodies joined their efforts in a common initiative that was to be one of the greatest catalysts for the promotion of the OAF.
