  • Two of Us: Shane Withington and Suzette Meade
    Upfront I was a neurotic mess by the time the Currawong campaign was won, which makes me wary for Suzette. I always end our calls say- ing, “Look after yourself and don’t burn out.” But she seems to be able to handle the pressure. We get on really well, except she doesn’t answer the phone when I want her to, and when I suggest letting off flares, she doesn’t reply, so it doesn’t happen. But I’ll mention it again, and if it still doesn’t happen, I’ll let flares off without her knowing. UZETTE: I was on maternity leave with Smy second child in 2015 when the NSW government development proposal for 6500 apartments and a retail complex in the Cumberland Hospital precinct reared its head. I went to the North Parramatta Residents Action Group’s first meeting, and was nominated to head the action against the development. Shane was the MC for a Crown land summit at NSW Parliament House. I knew of Shane from when he played nurse Brendan Jones on A Country Practice. Summing up, he said, “We all need to get involved with the Female Factory, because that is too precious to lose.” Afterwards, I thanked him for highlighting our plight in Parramatta. He gave me his num- ber, and said to ring if he could help. I contacted Shane several times, but he was always filming. In 2017, after an Aboriginal land claim had removed a third of the land, a TWO OF US development application was lodged for subdi- STORY BY Rosamund Burton PHOTOGRAPH BY Joshua Morris vision of the site for 2900 units and a retail complex, with 1100 units deferred.

  • Australian Theatre Archive
    Australian Theatre Archive Barry Creyton b. 1939 Barry Creyton is an actor, writer, director and composer who has succeeded as a theatre maker on three continents. He was a much adored television personality early in his career in Australia, when he was catapulted to stardom as part of the satirical television phenomenon that was The Mavis Bramston Show . Soon afterwards he hosted his own variety show. He has written three highly successful stage plays and appeared on stage and television throughout his career. Creyton has distinguished himself playing and writing comic roles although he has also played dramatic roles, and in recent years he has focused on adapting and directing classic plays. Barry Creyton is a purist who prefers live performance to television, and cautions against a tendency in directors to ‘do a concept production rather than a production which reflects the value of the play’. He has constantly challenged himself throughout his career. As soon as he achieved national celebrity status in the 1960’s he decided to leave Australia in order to work where nobody knew him, and test himself in a new environment as a working actor. Creyton is based in Los Angeles where he lives in the Hollywood Hills. He ended up in tinsel town by accident in 1991, began working as a scriptwriter, and disliked the city at first dubbing it ‘Purgatory with Palm Trees’, but soon fell in love with its glamorous cinema history, the marvellous and vibrant small live theatres and the absorbing world of entertainment that is the life blood of the city.

Public broadcast organisations must adopt novel strategies to survive and compete in this new environment, where they need to combine public service with popularity. In this context, scheduling has emerged as the central management tool, organising production and controlling budgets, and is now the driving force in television.
