  • John Mccallum. Belonging: Australian Playwriting in the 20Th Century
    JASAL 9 Reviews John McCallum. Belonging: Australian Playwriting in the 20th Century. Sydney: Currency P, 2009, 484+xi. ISBN: 9780868196589 AU$49.95 http://www.currency.com.au/cultural-studies-and-history.aspx John McCallum’s Belonging: Australian Playwriting in the 20th Century is unlike many other books on Australian drama published this decade. Recent publications have been strongly inflected in scope, content and rhetoric by discourses of gender and race, and by the politics of feminism, sexuality, migration, post-colonialism and reconciliation. Their authors offer incisive readings of plays in performance, selectively nuanced by subjective positions, archival research on theatre productions, and the embodied phenomenology of theatrical experience. McCallum’s readings of Australian plays are also incisive and nuanced, but the book incorporates those identity-based divisions within a broader embrace. Belonging restores to the criticism of Australian drama the national scope of earlier books like Dennis Carroll’s Australian Contemporary Drama (1985), Peter Fitzpatrick’s After ‘The Doll’ (1979) and Leslie Rees’s The Making of Australian Drama (1973). Beginning with the popular 1912 stage version of Steele Rudd’s On Our Selection and the ‘nationalist theatre’ of Louis Esson and the Pioneer Players, McCallum traces the formation of Australian drama through the ‘genre playwrights’ of the 1930s and 1940s, and the ‘backyard realism’ of the 1950s and 1960s, into the New Wave of the early 1970s. In fact, McCallum dismantles the apparent coherence of the ‘New Wave’: ‘The central four—Hibberd, Romeril, Buzo and Williamson—now look like as disparate a bunch of writers as you might find’ (140).

  • Idealism Versus Conservatism in Australian Theatre and Politics At
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Southern Queensland ePrints Facing Reality: Idealism versus Conservatism in Australian Theatre and Politics at the Turn of the Twenty-First Century. PhD Dissertation Ben Payne, BA (Hons). Abstract This dissertation aims to provide an analysis of mainstream Australian playwriting at the turn of the 21st Century. It will argue that mainstream theatre in the 1990s and early 2000s in many ways reflects the concurrent national political developments, in particular the revision of many of the dominant ideals of previous eras, such as those of the sixties. In this dissertation, I will attempt to outline briefly some of the hallmarks of the theatre of the New Wave, and their relation to the broader social movements occurring in Australia at the time. I will trace the beginnings of disillusionment and revising of these ideals in the late seventies and early eighties. The majority of the argument will then discuss the ways in which early nineties theatre engages with and frequently rebuts these earlier ideals, just as nineties politics saw a revision of many of the ideals of the sixties in society as a whole. I will argue that in the latter nineties, mainstream playwrights begin to reverse this conservative shift, reinstating a number of the ideals of the earlier period. I will demonstrate that Australian mainstream theatre at the turn of the century is integrally related to the politics of the society of the time, and that mainstream theatre demonstrates both radical and conservative tendencies through the period under consideration.

  • [Review Of] Dennis Carroll," Australian Contemporary Drama"(Rev. Ed
    COVER SHEET Makeham, Paul B. (1994) Dennis Carroll, Australian Contemporary Drama. Sydney: Currency Press. Accessed from http://eprints.qut.edu.au Copyright 1994 Currency Press Dennis Carroll, Australian Contemporary Drama (rev. ed.) (Sydney: Currency Press, 1994). The original version of this book, published in 1985, was Australian Contemporary Drama 1909-1982, and it was well on the way to becoming a standard and widely- referenced text by the time Currency published this 'completely revised and updated' edition ten years later. John McCallum, writing in 1988, considered the original to be 'the best available general critical history of twentieth-century Australian drama',1 and the same is probably true of this edition, although the extent of revision is questionable. In terms of broad theoretical perspectives, Peter Holloway's anthology of essays Contemporary Australian Drama (rev.ed.) (Sydney: Currency Press, 1987) is a better book, but it isn't a critical history as such. That said, Carroll's study is by any standard a fine achievement, with succinct and perceptive readings of scores of plays, an accessible, engaging style, and a carefully sustained examination of what the author proves are distinctively Australian(ist) themes. To cite McCallum once more, the book 'tells you what it is going to do, and then it does it, no bullshit'.2 It has always struck me, though, that the word 'contemporary' is something of a misnomer in the title of a text which deals with the whole twentieth century, and that something like 'Modern Australian Drama' might have been more appropriate. The historical scope of the original has been extended here by 12 years, ranging from William Moore's first Australian Drama Night in 1909 up to 1994, though the close detailed readings really only cover plays up to 1991; the period 92-94 was tacked on following delays in publication, and there is evidence of this in a certain frantic quality towards the end.
