Brothers Wreck by Jada Alberts Director Leah Purcell Set & Costume Designer Dale Ferguson Lighting Designer Luiz Pampolha Composer & Sound Designer Brendan O’Brien
Media Release April 2014 Belvoir presents Brothers Wreck By Jada Alberts Director Leah Purcell Set & Costume Designer Dale Ferguson Lighting Designer Luiz Pampolha Composer & Sound Designer Brendan O’Brien With Cramer Cain Lisa Flanagan Rarriwuy Hick Hunter Page-Lochard Bjorn Stewart Belvoir St Theatre | Upstairs 24 May – 22 June 2014 ‘it shouldn’t be this hard... but look around ay? You're not the only one who's lost a brother this way.’ Brothers Wreck begins with a death: on a hot morning under a house in Darwin, Ruben wakes to find his cousin Joe hanging from the rafters. The play that follows tells the story of how Ruben’s family, little by little, brings Ruben back from the edge. It is a confronting and honest exploration of grief and loss but ultimately redemption. Jada Alberts, winner of the 2013 Balnaves Foundation Indigenous Playwright’s Award, is an actor and theatre-maker with a powerful voice and a clear vision to tell the stories of her community. She is one of a growing group of young Indigenous artists who have looked to each other as much as they have to their elders for inspiration. Her play emerges from the gathering voices of this new generation and tells a deeply relevant and current story of the reality of life for many Indigenous families. An outstanding cast of Indigenous artists has been assembled. Rarriwuy Hick is gaining attention for her television performances in Redfern Now and The Gods of Wheat Street (ABC1). She is also a compelling stage actor, as well as a dancer and choreographer with Bangarra Dance Theatre. -

Welcome to a New Forum for Australian Studies
Gesellschaft für Australienstudien e.V. Newsletter Nr.11 ASSOCIATION FOR AUSTRALIAN STUDIES June 2014 EDITORIAL Welcome to a modern forum for Australian Studies.

The newsletter will accept relevant information on conferences, publications, lectures, scholarships, awards, research projects, institutions, and web links to Australian resources. The editor welcomes contributions which will help build a vital network in the field of Australian Studies, including essays, news, critiques and constructive commentary on specific subjects of research.

The editor urges every reader to help launch this professional news forum to reflect the spirit of Australian Studies in timely information, memorable dialogue, and innovative ideas. We need new ideas and colourful frames of presentation. The newsletter presents an extraordinary survey of recent Australian Studies and public relations work. Today we have something to celebrate: This time it is the editor's great pleasure to present the history of our Association for Australian Studies (Gesellschaft für Australienstudien) ‒ written by Professor Gerhard Stilz (Universität Tübingen): ‟25 Years GASt”. The Association has changed a lot since 1989; however, it remains the most important network for German-speaking Australianists in Europe. Again, this e-Newsletter reflects the interdisciplinary character of German-Australian studies and activities.

For each edition of each program, the top three subjects of discussion will be identified, based on the time spent discussing each topic/issue. In other words, the top three items will be those to which the program devoted the most amount of time. This may include a range of different items under one topic (for example, an interview with a Minister on a specific policy followed by a reaction from a stakeholder and then followed by talkback from listeners, all on the same subject, would together count as one item). The reviewer will also be provided with a summary of the top issues/topics that Australians consider most relevant and important to them. -

During September, myself and a few other members of OHQ presented and attended the Oral History Australia National Conference in Sydney.

My head is spinning with all the great papers presented.
