Que Reste-t’Il starts with songs from the 1880s form’s noble origins, with Tim Minchin’s in Paris, and Dancing on the Volcano covers that brief rapid response to George Pell as a good period when Berlin cabaret was at first light-headed with example. Perhaps as the times again relief after World War I, and then traced the dramatic become more fraught, more complex, descent into despair and horror. The power of serious more difficult to understand and to poets and composers to record such histories is negotiate, ‘ the art of small forms’ (as undeniable, and reinforces the words of Brecht’s poem: Peter Alternberg described cabaret) will come into its own again. My young son asks Will there be singing in the bad times? Robyn Archer AO Yes, there will be singing About the bad times When the cabaret form crossed into English language- speaking countries, it tended to morph into something A NOTE FROM more polite, such as revue, and its bite was less at politics and corruption, and more to social mores and foibles.

  • Dr Robyn Archer AO
    Dr Robyn Archer AO Citation for conferral of Doctor of Music (honoris causa) Ceremony 10, Monday 4 May 2015, 11:00am Chancellor, I present to you Robyn Archer. The award of the Degree of Doctor of Music (honoris causa) acknowledges Robyn Archer’s contributions as a singer, writer, composer, stage and artistic director, and public advocate of the arts in Australia and internationally. Robyn Archer was born in 1948 in Prospect, South Australia. She graduated from The University of Adelaide with a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) and Diploma of Education, and took up a full-time singing career in blues, jazz, rock and cabaret. Robyn Archer sang in the Australian premiere of Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins to open “The Space” at the Adelaide Festival Centre in 1974. She subsequently played Jenny in Weill’s Threepenny Opera. Since then her name has been linked with the German cabaret songs of Weill, Eisler and Paul Dessau. Her one-woman cabaret A Star is Torn (which toured throughout Australia 1979-83 and played for a year in London’s West End) and her 1981 show The Pack of Women both became successful books and recordings. Archer has written and devised many works for the stage from The Conquest of Carmen Miranda to Songs From Sideshow Alley and Cafe Fledermaus. Her ties to Adelaide have remained strong: In 2008 her play Architektin, on the life of Margarete Schütte-Lihotsky, premiered at the Dunstan Playhouse at the Adelaide Festival Centre and she gave the annual Hawke Lecture at the Adelaide Festival Centre in 2013.

  • Robyn Archer AO
    Ms Robyn Archer AO The honorary degree of Doctor of Letters was conferred upon Robyn Archer AO by the Chancellor the Hon Justice Kim Santow at the Faculty of Arts graduation ceremony held at 2.00pm on 6 May 2005. Citation Chancellor, I have the honour to present Ms Robyn Archer, AO for admission to the degree of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa). Over the last thirty years, Robyn Archer had made an outstanding contribution to the artistic and cultural life of Australia in a career that has involved many firsts and many new directions and challenges. A career, too, that is still far from over, though what she has already achieved is more than most of us could manage in two life times. Robyn Archer grew up in Adelaide, gaining a Bachelor of Arts with First Class Honours in English from the University of Adelaide, followed by a Diploma in Education. Thus suitably equipped, she spent two years working as an English teacher before her other life as a performer took over completely. She had been singing folk songs and playing guitar since her school days; as a teenager she was under contract to the TV show Bandstand. At university she sang jazz, folk and rock and roll, performed in revue, music hall and children’s theatre, and formed her first band (and still managed to gain First Class Honours). In 1974 she sang Annie I in the Brecht/Weill ballet The Seven Deadly Sins; the following year she performed in their The Threepenny Opera. Soon she had gained international recognition for her work as an interpreter of the music of Brecht/ Weill/ Eisler and Weimar Germany.
