  • 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.

  • 12 Part 1 Residental Colleges of the University
    The Residential Colleges of the University 1997 The establishment of residential colleges was envisaged from the foundation of the University and their affiliation was expressly provided for in the original Act of Incorporation. The Government set aside sites for the purpose within the area generally reserved for the University. The first of the colleges, Trinity (an Anglican foundation of 1870), was opened in 1872. The first Warden of Trinity, Alexander Leeper, quickly built up a comprehensive system of college teaching. This was adopted by other colleges on their foundation, and remains a distinguishing feature of the Melbourne collegiate system. So too, do the large enrolment of non-resident students and the provision of significant college libraries, now supplemented by computer installations. The college tutorial system (in which International House and Medley Hall also participate) is in general supplementary to teaching offered by the University's faculties, and is organized in part on an intercollegiate basis. Formal links with the University on academic matters are maintained through a Joint Committee of the Academic Board and the Heads of Colleges, and under a Statute of the University (S5.1.2), "any teacher in an affiliated institution" may be appointed to membership of a faculty. Heads of colleges sit in rotation as co-opted members of the University Council, and play a considerable part in the committee work of the University. The other three colleges for which sites had been originally reserved were established as follows: Ormond (Presbyterian foundation, 1870), opened 1881; Queen's (Methodist foundation, 1887), opened 1888; Newman (Roman Catholic foundation, 1916), opened 1918.

  • 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.

Our last Australia and the United Nations: Report Card was published in 2007 and marked a point in time when we were highly disappointed with Australia’s engagement with the UN. Australia was not actively contributing in the General Assembly, nor working hard to advance the Millennium Development Goals. We were not rising to meet the challenge of climate change and had just staged an intervention in the Northern Territory that the UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples later found to be incompatible with Australia’s international human rights obligations. The 2013 Report Card focuses on Australia’s activities following the publication of the last Report Card in 2007 up until the federal election on 7 September 2013.

  • 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.

  • Case Study: Occupy Melbourne – a Missed Opportunity
    Occupy Melbourne General Assembly Photo Nick Carson CASE STUDY: OCCUPY MELBOURNE – A MISSED OPPOrtunitY In September 2011 the Occupy movement, inspired in part from the Spanish Indignados movement, and kicked off by Occupy Wall Street, exploded worldwide, with uprisings in 951 cities in 82 countries. In Australia, the most high profile Occupy presence was in Melbourne. “Occupy Melbourne became the largest occupation in Australia, and indeed, the southern hemisphere. Like most truly novel historical events, the Occupy movement caught most people off guard.” James Muldoon, Occupy Reflects Whilst the range of political views and experiences across the world were as diverse as the participants, a simmering sense of injustice, and the feeling that something was ‘not quite right’ on a range of fronts – across economic, social justice and environmental concerns; seemed to drive the involvement of some of the Melbourne participants. Other occupations in the United States established by people with a clearer initial focus on economic justice – neatly summarised by the ‘We are the 99%’ slogan – which contrasted the experience of the majority of Americans with the wealthiest 1% who exploit them for economic gain. Some of the encampments elsewhere seemed to be initiated by people with more experience and clearer anti-authoritarian/ anarchist organising principles, however, there was a much more varied and diverse group that made up Occupy Melbourne. “Occupy was my first real taste of activism, I don’t know why, I’ve always been an activist at heart, outraged by the injustice of the status quo...I guess I just have not been terribly active.” Kate Phillips, Occupy Reflects A general sense of inequity, and disaffection with government were broad underlying themes that motivated Occupy Melbourne supporters.
