  • 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.

  • 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.

    Filmmakers announced for Cook 2020: Our Right of Reply Tuesday 14 May 2019: Screen Australia and the New Zealand Film Commission (NZFC) are pleased to announce the eight Indigenous teams from Australia and New Zealand who will work on a joint anthology feature, Cook 2020: Our Right of Reply, entitled Ngā Pouwhenua in New Zealand. The teams will each create a short chapter for the feature film, which will provide an Indigenous perspective on the 250th anniversary of James Cook’s maiden voyage to the Pacific. Mitchell Stanley (Servant or Slave) from Australia, and Bailey Mackey (All or Nothing; New Zealand All Blacks, associate producer on Hunt for the Wilderpeople) and Mia Henry-Teirney (Baby Mama’s Club) from New Zealand have been chosen as co-producers and will collaborate with the teams to develop their concepts and the overarching narrative. The teams and producers are attending a residential lab at Shark Island Institute in Kangaroo Valley to develop the film. Screen Australia’s Head of Indigenous Penny Smallacombe said: “This is a rare opportunity for creative collaboration between Indigenous cultures, from Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific. I’m inspired by the experience and talent of the filmmakers selected to helm this project. These teams have presented exceptional concepts, with stories exploring the past, present and future, with humour and horror, sadness and joy, in response to who we are and how we continue to survive the colonial experience.” MEDIA RELEASE “I’m excited by their unique storytelling styles and individual voices, and how they will complement each other to create a powerful anthology.

  • Missionaries, Mercenaries, Misfits…
    Missionaries, Mercenaries, Misfits… COMEDY 6 x 30’ HD COMEDY HD 6 x 30’ At the ass-end of the world, in the middle of nowhere, is Alice Springs. It’s a sacred place for Aboriginal people and a magnet for three kinds of whitefellas: Missionaries, Mercenaries and Misfits. It’s also the home of 8MMM Aboriginal Radio, where the mob meets the 3Ms. 8MMM is the proud voice of blackfellas in this part of the world. Trouble is, like most Indigenous organisations, it’s run by whitefellas. For the Missionaries, Mercenaries and Misfits of Alice Springs, ‘saving’ Aboriginal people from themselves is hard work. For Aboriginal people, being ‘saved’ all the time is exhausting. As the motley crew at 8MMM broadcasts the day-to-day goings on of Alice Springs, they find ignorance and interference at every turn - and that’s before they’ve left the building. 8MMM ABORIGINAL RADIO is truthful and bold - a comedy about tolerance, self-determination and cultural misunderstanding and why, when all else fails - which it usually does - it’s good to laugh. Australia’s first Indigenous narrative comedy, 8MMM ABORIGINAL RADIO is an original series from Alice Springs-based production company Brindle Films (Big Name No Blanket, Blown Away and producer of Double Trouble) and Princess Pictures (Summer Heights High, Angry Boys, John Safran’s Race Relations, It’s a Date). The series is written and directed by Indigenous talent, shot on location in Central Australia and features an exciting ensemble cast and local performers. WRITERS: Trisha Morton-Thomas, Danielle MacLean, Sonja Dare DIRECTORS: Dena Curtis, Adrian Russell Wills PRODUCERS: Rachel Clements, Trisha Morton-Thomas, Anna Cadden EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Andrea Denholm, Laura Waters PRODUCTION COMPANIES: Brindle Films, Princess Pictures.

  • Shari Sebbens Looks at 'The Horrible Side' of the Country in Australia Day Garry Maddox 2 June 2017
    Shari Sebbens looks at 'the horrible side' of the country in Australia Day Garry Maddox 2 june 2017 Shari Sebbens is no fan of Australia Day. A Bardi Jabirr Jabirr woman who grew up in Darwin, the Sapphires star thinks of it as Invasion Day and prefers to take time to reflect with her "mob" – family and friends – rather than celebrate. So Sebbens was surprised to hear she had been invited to audition for a new film called Australia Day. Shari Sebbens: "Why would I want to audition for a film called Australia Day?" Photo: Nic Walker "I laughed," she says. "I said 'why would I want to audition for a film called Australia Day?' As an Aboriginal woman, it conjures up that it's going to be some bogan Cronulla riots type thing." But when she read the script, Sebbens was delighted to see the provocative territory the drama was covering – a potent examination of race and identity. "It's taking a look at the horrible side to Australia that people don't like to acknowledge exists, especially on nice summer days when you can just pop on the Hottest 100 and enjoy a tinnie," she says. Sebbens plays an Aboriginal police officer, Senior Constable Sonya Mackenzie, who is caught up in interwoven dramas as three teenagers run away on the national day: a 14- 2 year-old Indigenous girl fleeing a car crash, a 17-year-old Iranian boy running from a crime scene and a 19-year-old Chinese girl escaping sexual slavery. Directed by Kriv Stenders with a cast that includes Bryan Brown, Matthew Le Nevez, Isabelle Cornish and such newcomers as Miah Madden, Elias Anton and Jenny Wu, the topical drama has its world premiere at Sydney Film Festival this month.
