We have a great lineup of shows to look forward to – there truly is something for everyone this spring. Our fall shows certainly set the stage for a fantastic 2015-16 season @ the FAC. Many of us make resolutions for the new year, looking ahead to our hopes for the immediate future. If you’re taking stock of what’s important in your life and your community, don’t forget to include the Arts! At the FAC, we take our role very seriously, since we provide a way for our audience members to connect – not only with the artists and performers they see here, but with each other as well. Even when the news is bleak, there is still a place where people can come together and share in artistic and cultural experiences. That’s a connection you don’t find just anywhere (and certainly not on your cell phone!). The new year also brings us to some happy endings. We say goodbye to two long-time staff members, retiring after many years @ the FAC: Richard Ballon, Assistant Box Office Manager, and Fritz Farrington, Operations Director. Congratulations to Richard and Fritz on their retirement, and a big thank you for all of their hard work over the years! They will surely be missed. And don’t forget, we’re closing out our 40th anniversary season with a party! You’re invited to join us for the best local music, dance and theater performances, plus games, art, crafts and food at the FAC Community Fest, May 1st from 1–4. It’s entirely free and fun for students, kids and adults! Thanks for helping to make the first half of our 40th anniversary season a huge success!

Swanicide Program Notes: A Conversation with Dada Masilo Why did you choose to work with ‘Swan Lake’? What was it about the classic that attracted you, and how did you start the work? Swan Lake is the first Ballet that I saw when I was 12 years old and I fell completely in love with it, especially Tchaikovsky’s music and the tutus, and I remember think- ing to myself that I would dance it sometime, but as I didn’t become a Ballet dancer I had to make my own version. I wanted my version to be more realistic and not a fairy tale. It is such a sad reality when one grows up because you realise that there are no fairy tales in life. You grow up and you have to deal with the harsh realities of life and one of those realities is that homophobia is real and rife, which is why I chose that particular issue to tackle in my version. That and the assumption that men who dance are gay. This misconception is something that is on a lot of people’s minds; hence I wanted to bring it up front and explore it further.

  • BOB SEDERGREEN: the INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson*
    BOB SEDERGREEN: THE INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson* _______________________________________________________ [This interview appeared in the December 1981 edition of Jazz Magazine] ver the last decade, I have had the pleasure of hearing pianist Bob Sedergreen play on many occasions: with vibist Alan Lee, with a succession of bands led O by Brian Brown, as the focal point of the Ted Vining Trio, with Onaje, as the wild card in Peter Gaudion’s Blues Express, providing fairly heroic support to visiting stars Jimmy Witherspoon, Phil Woods, Richie Cole and Milt Jackson, even solo. I have always enjoyed and admired his playing for its unflagging swing and qualities of joy, resourcefulness and commitment, and his determination to take chances at all times in search of inspiration, which he seems to find more frequently than most. He has long impressed me as a jazz musician who often plays ‘above himself’ because he has the courage to do just that. Bob Sedergreen: the sum total of his music is pure Sedergreen… In the last few years, he has continued to increase the scope and depth of his playing, and his confidence in it, to the point where he is obviously one of the best musicians in Australia. We have too few others who can so consistently be so exciting, original, inventive, surprising and enjoyable. __________________________________________________________ *In 1981 when this was published, Adrian Jackson was a freelance writer, who had been jazz critic with the Melbourne Age since 1978. 1 I won’t try to describe his playing. As with any really good jazz artist, his playing is a reflection of his listening and playing experiences, and his own personality.
