  • David Williamson

    'The Ways We Live Now' David Williamson Australia has always seemed a very crude society, and this play explains better than most why so many Australians of talent chose to live in Britain and America ... If this is Australia, the Aborigines should have won. So opined English-born Clive Barnes in January 1974, reviewing an Off-Broadway production of David Williamson's The Removalists for the New York Times. Barnes had already seen London's Royal Court production (in July-August 1973) of this play which, first performed in Melbourne and Sydney 'alternative' theatres two years before, had quickly won its young writer a national reputation. By the time Barnes reviewed the play, that reputation was becoming international, for at the end of 1973 Williamson had won the London Evening Standard's George Devine Award for Most Promising Playwright. Barnes's assumption that a play, realist (though also absurdist) in mode, mirrored a whole society, or reflected the perceiver's stereotyped impressions of that society, had not been shared by this London counterparts. Although Harold Hobson of the Sunday Times felt that the play was evil, pandering to the audience's worst instincts by offering scenes of violence that (curiously) he thought belonged more in the brothel than on the stage, other London reviewers had been more receptive to this black comedy of machismo run riot, in which two policeman meddle in a domestic dispute and end up bashing the husband to death. Most of them saw the play as a psychological-cum-moral fable with implications extending far beyond the particulars of its Australian setting and the issue of police violence.

Zboray, Professor, Communication ii Copyright © by Christine Jacqueline Feldman 2009 iii “‘WE ARE THE MODS’: A TRANSNATIONAL HISTORY OF A YOUTH CULTURE” Christine Jacqueline Feldman, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2009 Mod youth culture began in the postwar era as way for young people to reconfigure modernity after the chaos of World War II. Through archival research, oral history interviews, and participant observation, this work traces Mod’s origins from dimly lit clubs of London’s Soho and street corners of the city’s East End in the early sixties, to contemporary, country-specific expressions today. By specifically examining Germany, Japan, and the U.S., alongside the U.K., I show how Mod played out in countries that both lost and won the War. The Mods’ process of refashioning modernity—inclusive of its gadgetry and unapologetic consumerism—contrasts with the more technologically skeptical and avowedly less materialistic Hippie culture of the later sixties. Each chapter, which unfolds chronologically, begins with a contemporary portrait of the Mod scene in a particular country, followed by an overview stretching back to its nineteenth- century conceptions of modernity and a section that describes Mod’s initial impact there during the 1960s.

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.
