A trio of Aboriginal girls Based, incredibly, on a true story, and developed from a successful from a remote mission get a stony stage musical, this is a big-hearted, barnstorming put-on-a-show response to their country and western crowdpleaser. Beneath the spangly exterior, however, it has songs at a talentSynopsis show. But Dave, a surprisingly trenchant things to say about Australian identity and drunken Irish talent scout, thinks they have potential. the bitter legacy of institutionalised racism. Seeing them as Australia's answer to 'The Of course, none of this would really hit home unless we believed in Supremes', he recruits their cousin Kay to The Sapphires as authentic soul sisters, achieved thanks to the group, and convinces them to switch to ‘Australian Idol’ finalist Jessica Mauboy’s sumptuous lead vocals, soul songs. Then he gets the girls their and astute song selections from the Motown, Stax and Atlantic first true gig - singing for the troops in the songbooks. middle of the Vietnam war zone... With rising star O’Dowd in command of both the comic timing and emotional grace notes and beautifully playing off Deborah Mailman as the group’s alpha female, the movie is gutsy and entertaining enough to have us forgiving its occasional credibility glitches and obviously CGI-ed battlefront visuals.

Theatre Costume, Celebrity Persona, and the Archive
Persona Studies 2019, vol. 5, no. 2 THEATRE COSTUME, CELEBRITY PERSONA, AND THE ARCHIVE EMILY COLLETT ABSTRACT This essay considers the archived costume in relation to the concept of the celebrity performer’s persona. It takes as its case study the Shakespearean costume of Indigenous actress Deborah Mailman, housed in the Australian Performing Arts Collection. It considers what the materiality of the theatre costume might reveal and conceal about a performer’s personas. It asks to what extent artefacts in an archive might both create a new persona or freezeframe a particular construct of a performer. Central to the essay are questions of agency in relation to the memorialisation of a still living actress and the problematisation of persona in terms of the archived object. Can a costume generate its own persona in relation to the actress? And what are the power dynamics involved in persona construction when an archived costume presents a charged narrative which is very different to the actress’s current construction of her persona? KEY WORDS Costume; Archive; Deborah Mailman; Indigenous; Memory; Shakespeare COSTUME IN THE ARCHIVE: A CHARGED OBJECT In this essay I consider the archived theatre costume in relation to persona studies and what the materiality of costume might reveal or conceal about the celebrity performer’s persona(s). Can an archived costume have its own persona? What complexities arise when the charged historical narrative of an archived costume is at odds with a current persona? And in the following case study of Deborah Mailman, what happens when the framing of a living Indigenous actress’s costume constructs a persona that is quite different to the one that the actress currently constructs for herself? A costume worn by a performer live on stage is remembered in particular ways – and many in the audience might focus more on the performer’s stance, physicality, and verbal prowess than what they are wearing.

Leah Purcell DROVER’S WIFE
THE Leah Purcell DROVER’S WIFE Currency Press, Sydney Writer’s Note Like many Australians, I’ve grown up with this story and love it. My mother would read or recite it to me, but before she got to that famous last line, I would stop her and say, “Mother, I won’t ever go a drovin’.” I always wanted to do something with this story with me in it as the drover’s wife. There were two forms of inspiration that motivated me to write this play. First came the film idea in 2006, which I wanted to shoot in the Snowy Mountains. That inspiration came when I was filming the feature film Jindabyne, directed by Ray Lawrence. Secondly, I was in a writing workshop. I was there as a director, but got frustrated. So I went home and said it was time to write my next play. I looked at my bookshelf and there it was: my little red tattered book of Henry Lawson’s short stories. The red cover had now fallen off, its spine thread fraying and my drawings inside as a five-year-old fading. In the original story, the drover’s wife sits at the table waiting for a snake to come out of her bedroom, having gotten in via the wood heap, which a ‘blackfella’ stacked hollow. While she waits for the snake, she thinks about her life and its hardships. Her oldest son joins her and she shares her story with him. This is not my version of The Drover’s Wife.
