Fidel In the world that depends on technology, it is hard to miss breaking news on an 8.9 Magnitude Earthquake that kills 19 people or the news about a massacre of five people in the middle of Europe. Surprisingly enough, if I asked you about one of the greatest mass killings in the world after WWII, I wouldn’t be surprised if you said the war in Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan. The death toll in these three countries combined is recorded to be approximately 371,000 people since 2001according to Watson Institute – Cost of War. This is not close to half the great genocide of Rwanda that claimed almost a million lives. The Democratic Republic of Congo is well known for its richness in natural resources and minerals such as gold, diamond, coltan, petroleum to name a few.

Host: AC - Angela Catterns Guests: DB - David Berthold TM - Tommy Murphy Angela Catterns: 2020 marks the 50th birthday of Griffin Theatres Company home: the Stables Theatre. I’m Angela Catterns. Join us as we celebrate the anniversary in this special series of podcasts, where we’ll hear about the theatre’s history and talk to some of the country’s most celebrated artists. Angela Catterns (AC): In more than 30 years of Griffin Theatre Company at the Stables Theatre, no production has been more successful than Holding the Man. The original production, adapted for the stage by Tommy Murphy, and directed by David Berthold, premiered in 2006 in a critically- acclaimed, sold out season. Tommy Murphy and David Berthold, both on tight travel schedules, joined us separately, but within hours of each other for this podcast; part of the series celebrating 50 Years of the Stables. AC: Welcome David, thank you for finding time to join our podcast series. David Berthold (DB): Great to be here Angela. AC: Thank you. So, you grew up in the theatre I read, is that right? DB: Um, well only to the extent that quite early on in my life I became involved in amateur drama in um, in Newcastle.

  • Embargoed to 7Pm 3 Sept
    MEDIA RELEASE August 2016 EMBARGOED TO 7PM 3 SEPT. Belvoir’s Artistic Director Eamon Flack has unveiled an optimistic and wildly entertaining season of plays for the company’s 2017 Season. There are inventive new plays from Australia and around the world, there are return seasons and tours of popular plays and two of our favourite stage actors in two great classics. Toby Schmitz returns to the Belvoir stage, after a three year absence, in The Rover by Aphra Behn. Schmitz takes the swashbuckling titular role in this raucous and outrageous battle of the sexes from the woman widely considered the first professional female playwright. Flack has reunited his award-winning team from his 2014 sell out hit The Glass Menagerie to find the same freshness and beauty in Henrik Ibsen’s Ghosts. Pamela Rabe stars as the fierce mother Helene Alving. ‘Our 2016 Season has been very much about reflecting on our past, both for Belvoir and in a wider cultural sense,’ says Flack. ‘With the 2017 Season we are taking an imaginative leap into the future. In this season, characters dream big in the midst of disaster and confusion. They fight passionately for a brighter future. This is a season of plays that unleashes the possibility that maybe the 21st century won’t be an unmitigated disaster.’ Two of the most inventive and exciting plays out of New York’s Playwrights Horizons in recent years are Hir by Taylor Mac and Anne Washburn’s Mr Burns, a Post-Electric Play, and they are both in our 2017 Season.

  • Putting Hamlet in a Hoodie: Critical Issues in Contemporising Shakespeare Through Costume Design
    98 Putting Hamlet in a hoodie: Critical issues in contemporising Shakespeare through costume design Madeline Taylor Madeline Taylor is a Sessional Lecturer and Tutor at the Queensland University of Technology and a Co-Director of the stitchery collective. She is both a researcher and creator of theatre. Beginning her theatre industry career at 17, she has since worked on over 75 productions in theatre, dance, opera, circus, contemporary performance and film around Australia and the UK. In 2010 she completed a research internship at the Victoria & Albert Museum under Donatella Barbier. Alongside this she is developing her academic career, completing a dissertation at QUT focused on contemporary costume practice in Australia in 2011 and since taught there in costume and fashion theory. She is also a co- director for fashion and design collective the stitchery and Australian Editor for the World Scenography Project Vol II. Context, argument and approach It is now rare to see a Shakespearean production in Australia performed in doublet and hose. Constantly revived and adapted, over the past few decades these plays have become increasingly likely to be set some time in the 20th or 21st century or in a purposefully vague ‘now’. The reverence with which these texts are treated often means that the scenography carries the burden of conveying the updated time, with costuming frequently bearing the brunt of this weight. In justifying the programming of these revivals this design and directional decision is consistently connected to ideas about universal accessibility, currency and relevancy to contemporary audiences. This paper adds to the longstanding industry and academic debate that surrounds staging Shakespeare and his contemporaries, and which has been written about since at least the 1920s.1 Each time one of these plays is revived the choice of time setting and location must be made by the creative team, usually the director and set and costume designer/s.
