  • Strange Interlude
    Media Release April 2012 Belvoir presents Strange Interlude Written by SIMON STONE after EUGENE O’NEILL Director SIMON STONE Set Designer ROBERT COUSINS Costume Designer MEL PAGE Lighting Designer DAMIEN COOPER Composer & Sound Designer STEFAN GREGORY With AKOS ARMONT NICHOLAS BAKOPOULIS-COOKE EMILY BARCLAY MITCHELL BUTEL CALLUM McMANIS KRIS McQUADE ELOISE MIGNON ANTHONY PHELAN TOBY SCHMITZ TOBY TRUSLOVE BELVOIR ST THEATRE | UPSTAIRS 5 MAY – 17 JUNE An experimental play from the 1920s may not be the most obvious choice for inclusion in Belvoir’s strikingly contemporary season, but in the hands of Simon Stone theatre-goers will know to expect a radical interpretation of Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play. In the vein of Stone’s The Wild Duck, a sell-out at both Belvoir and Melbourne’s Malthouse Theatre, Strange Interlude will be completely rewritten. Strange Interlude is one of the few modern plays to use soliloquy interwoven with the dialogue, revealing the characters’ inner thoughts; this technique will be maintained in the rewrite. Twenty-year-old Nina Leeds (Emily Barclay) has lost the love of her life in the war. Overcome with grief, she quits university, falls out with her father and moves away from home. What follows is an epic and compelling narrative that spans 25 years in Nina’s life, but the story is compressed into a series of heightened, life altering moments. The significance of each of these moments is revealed as the page-turning story unravels. The cast assembled for this production is truly stellar, with the luminous Emily Barclay as Nina and Mitchell Butel, Toby Schmitz and Toby Truslove as three men in her life, each vying for her attention and affection in his own way.

  • Nowhere Boys: the Book of Shadows, Mini-Series Seven Types of Ambiguity, and Barracuda
    Introduction The wait is over…Australia’s award-winning drama series Glitch returns to ABC, Thursday 14 September at 8.30pm with all episodes stacked and available to binge watch on ABC iview. When it first premiered in 2015, Glitch broke the mold and garnered fans around the country, who became immersed in the story of the Risen - the seven people who returned from the dead in perfect health. With no memory of their identities, disbelief soon gave way to a determination to discover who they are and what happened to them. Featuring a stellar cast including: Patrick Brammall, Emma Booth, Emily Barclay, Rodger Corser, Genevieve O’Reilly, Sean Keenan, Rob Collins and Hannah Monson, Glitch is an epic paranormal saga about love, loss and what it means to be human, and the dark secrets that lie beneath our country’s history. Season two picks up with James (Patrick Brammall), dealing with his recovering wife, Sarah (Emily Barclay) and a new-born baby daughter. He continues to be committed to helping the remaining Risen unravel the mystery of how and why they have returned and shares with them his discovery that Doctor Elishia Mackeller (Genevieve O’Reilly), now missing, died and came back to life four years ago and has been withholding many secrets from the beginning. Meanwhile on the run and desperate, John Doe (Rodger Corser) crosses paths with the mysterious Nicola Heysen (Pernilla August) head of Noregard Pharmaceuticals. Sharing explosive information with him, she convinces him that that the only way to discover answers to his questions is to offer himself up for testing inside their facility.

  • Season Embargoed to 8Pm Friday 14 September 2012 We Are Excited to Announce Belvoir’S 2013 Season
    2013 season Embargoed to 8pm Friday 14 September 2012 We are excited to announce Belvoir’s 2013 Season. It’s about growing up, or not. About taking chances and attempting to right wrongs. It’s about finding your place in a messy, chaotic world. Ralph Myers kicks off the year with Peter Pan, a work for adults and children alike with a team of fabulous clowns and headed by the funny/dangerous Meyne Wyatt as the boy who wouldn’t grow up. Next up is Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, the Tenessee Williams classic directed by Simon Stone and heralding the long overdue return of Jacqueline McKenzie, who long-term Belvoir audiences will remember for her ethereal Ophelia back in 1994. Speaking of Hamlet, we thought it was time to tackle that great play again, this time Simon Stone directs Toby Schmitz in the title role. Audiences loved Anthea William’s moving production of Old Man in the Downstairs Theatre this year; in 2013 she’s moving Upstairs directing Forget Me Not by Tom Holloway. This will be followed by both parts of Angels in America. It’s a piece of such breadth and ambition that it commands two nights in the theatre and we’re thrilled to have Eamon Flack to direct. Adena Jacobs is a young director of great talent from Melbourne. Her company staged a stunning adaptation of Ingmar Bergman’s film Persona last year and we loved it so much we had to bring it to Sydney to show you. Leticia Caceres and Brendan Cowell are a formidable director/actor team (The Dark Room, 2011).

  • Cate Blanchett in ‘The Present’
    THE MORNING LINE DATE: Monday, January 9, 2017 FROM: Melissa Cohen, Michelle Farabaugh PAGES: 23, including this page C3 January 9, 2017 Hillary Clinton Receives Ovation at ‘The Color Purple’ By Michael Paulson and Michael Barbaro Hillary Clinton, who has kept a relatively low public profile since losing the presidential election two months ago, on Sunday showed up at the final performance of the Broadway revival of “The Color Purple,” reveling in the story of a beleaguered woman who triumphs over the oppressive men in her life (and, along the way, discovers a love for colorful pants). Mrs. Clinton, accompanied by her husband, former President Bill Clinton, and their daughter, Chelsea, received several ovations from the sold-out audience as she arrived, and then another round of applause when she was acknowledged by the cast after the show. “There’s a lot of really awesome famous and notable people here today,” the actress Patrice Covington, who gave the farewell speech on behalf of the cast after the show, said to the audience. “I’m not going to call all of them out — I know you already know them,” she said, before pausing, looking in Mrs. Clinton’s direction, and waving at her mischievously. At that, the audience erupted into a new, loud round of applause. The reaction was substantially warmer than the scattered booing and clapping that greeted the arrival of Vice President-elect Mike Pence when he attended “Hamilton,” just one block north, on Nov. 18. “We love you Hillary,” some audience members shouted. Several thanked Mrs. Clinton and told her, “God bless you.” “God bless you,” Mrs.
