This is my last program for the company, which fills me with a curious mixture of sadness and excitement. It is inevitable that I want to stop and reflect. The thing I have been most aware of at Sydney Theatre Company has been continuity. I walk the long walk down The Wharf every day and, sometimes, I remember my mother and father walking us all up here the first time. I remember walking up here with girlfriends, waiting at the end for university friends. I remember my first day of rehearsals for Cyrano de Bergerac… twice. How many times did I walk up here with my wonderful wife and sometime Co-Artistic Director? I seem to be perpetually running after my children up and down here. It is a fabulous company, perfectly poetically situated for its real purpose – a point of departure. Deep water. Safe harbour. The beginning of a journey. The circle of coming and going and old and new… Continuity plus reinvention. This is the paradox that energises theatre. It is the reason plays are published. Literary merit notwithstanding, plays are published so people can mount productions of them, reinvent them, find new life in them, make connections to them and through them to the past how the narratives of past and present intertwine, and on into the future. Recurring reinvention of we will talk about race, and politics, and sex and story, of space, of the ideas that hold us together power. Lots of sex. And comedy! Because what’s and tear us apart. life without sex and comedy? Whilst this is my last season, it is also someone else’s first and, for you, it is the next. So, what is coming up in 2016? We have a massive program of new work by some of the most exciting contemporary Australian Andrew Upton playwrights, we explore our cultural history and Artistic Director 2 3 THE TOP BENEFITS OF A SEASON TICKET A Season Ticket is made up of 6 to 14 shows, and gives Season Ticket Holders access to great savings and many excellent benefits throughout the year.

  • 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.
