  • In the Winter Dark Tail Credits
    Tail voice over: After Maurice has shot his wife Ida, he heads up the hill to his dying wife. He holds her in his arms and sobs as she dies. Jacob gets Ronnie out of the vehicle and pushes the flat bed Toyota upright. Maurice grabs a shovel and begins to dig a grave for his wife. Jacob carries Ronnie to the truck, and they drive off into the darkness, while Maurice begins the job of digging a hole, pausing to watch the Toyota disappear into the night. Then the image cuts to Maurice sitting on the verandah of his home in pre-dawn light, at first in close up. As his voice over unfolds, the camera pulls back to offer a wide shot of him on the verandah : Maurice (v/o): “Some nights I sit here and talk and stare, and stay out until the break of day …waiting, hoping. There’s been no blue lights, no detectives, no sign of Jacob or Ronnie or her musician boyfriend … and it’s been almost a year… (A kookaburra begins to sound over a wide shot of the dawn light falling on the pasture and the bush). … Sometimes I see a shadow … (ECU of his eyes) …between the trees. But I know to leave these things alone now …(back to a wide shot of him on the verandah, now with dawn light on it) …I make my confession, wait for redemption …or punishment …(a shot of the sun rising over a distant hill, bathing the screen in a yellow hazy glow) …but there’s only the sun rise … Music swells, fade to black, and end credits begin to roll ..

  • Australian Television, Music and Place
    Screen Sound n1, 2010 SOUNDING EAST OF EVERYTHING Australian Television, Music and Place Liz Giuffre Abstract East of Everything is a contemporary Australian television drama series shot on the New South Wales North Coast in and around the popular tourist destination of Byron Bay. In addition to utilising the region’s visual beauty – a cinematographic technique commonly employed in Australian drama – East of Everything has harnessed the musical culture that has developed in the area over time. The series relies on its soundtrack to create a sense of place and illuminate the program’s dramatic progression. This article will explore the use of music to ‘place’ East of Everything, examining the incorporation of pre-existing and specially commissioned material. I will show that the sonic representation of place through music has been key to the program’s success, and that place in the Australian drama is revealed sonically to be as diverse, emotive and striking as the region’s visual landscape. Keywords Television, Soundtrack, Australian music, Byron Bay, Surfing Culture Introduction Billingham (2000) argues that television drama often relies on the creation of ‘geo- ideological’ relationships to attract audiences. As part of his evaluation of various contemporary British and American television drama series, he suggests that many successful programs created a “dialectic of literal notions of place and location, transposed with their ideological marking, signing and delineation” (2000: 1). For Billingham the depiction of place was central to the success of these television texts, with the program’s target audience engaged as visuals and sound worked in “symbiotic tandem” to create an “imagined city” (2000: 119).

  • Windmill Theatre, GIRL ASLEEP Is a Journey Into the Absurd, Scary and Beautiful Heart of the Teenage Mind
    1 WINNER ADEL AIDE FILM FESTIVAL FOXTEL MOVIES AUDIENCE AWARDS MOST POPULAR FEATURE Girl Asleep bags most popular feature at Adelaide Film Festival. IF MAGAZINE It’s in Myers’s commitment to eccentricity that Girl Asleep – an art-house film made firmly with a teenage audience in its sight – finds its heart. THE GUARDIAN AUSTRALIA Girl Asleep is the stylish, formally exuberant debut of theatre director Rosemary Myers. A funny and imaginative portrait of growing pains. THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER With the endless production of superhero films and film remakes these days, it is refreshing to see a film with such raw acting and originality from start to finish. It’s hard not to fall in love with the characters in Girl Asleep, and be left with the warmth of the film long after the credits have stop rolling. THE UPSIDE NEWS Inventive and confidently executed... bright and occasionally subversive take on teen growing pains that gives fresh legs to a familiar genre. We’re lucky to call this one our own. RIP IT UP Profoundly funny. SCENESTR Wildly funny and deeply moving in equal measure, it is a work rich in larrikin character but universal in its themes and appeal. As Greta embraces her blossoming self, so to does Australian cinema welcome another memorable movie heroine. SCREEN SPACE A memorable, comic balance of poise and chaos. ADELAIDE REVIEW Colourful, eccentric... production about a girl navigating the pitfalls of puberty with a casual side of magical realism... one for fans of coming-of-age dramas and colourful Wes Anderson-style quirkfests.

  • Tennessee Williams'
    TENNESSEE WILLIAMS’ 18 OCT – 16 NOV 2019 ADAPTED FOR THE STAGE BY PIERRE LAVILLE AND EMILY MANN This adaptation of BABY DOLL was originally produced by McCarter Theatre Center, Princeton, NJ: Emily Mann, Artistic Director; Timothy J. Shields, Managing Director. BABY DOLL is presented by special arrangement with The University of the South, Sewanee, Tennessee. WELCOME When I saw the film BABY DOLL a few years back, I wanted to stage it thinking the film was based on a play of the same name, not realising it was actually based on Williams’ earlier play, 27 WAGONS FULL OF COTTON. There was no play of BABY DOLL to perform. A few years later two scripts cropped up around the same time and I was thrilled with Pierre Laville and Emily Mann’s adaptation. It captures the essence of the film, the damage of the characters and Tennessee Williams’ beautiful dialogue. I am thrilled we are presenting BABY DOLL - almost as a new play by Tennessee Williams in 2019. With Shaun Rennie at the helm of this beautiful cast and creative team, we are very excited indeed. Enjoy!
