" Garrie Hutchinson, The Australian "The funnier it gets - and it is very funny - the more urgently Williamson asks: how can anything be made to work, from a relationship between two people right through to an educational institution when human beings are the headstrong, contrary, passionate and self-seeking creatures that they are?" Ron Blair, Sydney Morning Herald It Often hailed as Williamson's best A. play, perhaps because it mirrors his ~l early life as a teacher and, there­ fore, a lot of its content comes from his own experience, THE DEPARTMENT is an ascerbic dissection of the world of the committee meeting. Robby, the Max Gillies head of the department, desperately tries to conduct a staff meeting - he Max Gillies in the lead role of Robby Trust Members are invited to attend contrives, he cajoles, he manipulates, heads a strong cast, which also includes a preview performance on Monday sometimes he flounders, but always Tracy Mann, who has just completed a evening, October 26, when they may manages to remain ahead (just) of the season at the Wharf Theatre in WHEN purchase as many tickets as they wish rest!

  • Vast - Dance on a New Scale
    FEBRUARY, 1988 Vol 12 No 1 ISSN 0314 - 0598 A publication of the Australian Elizabethan Theatre Trust Vast - Dance on a New Scale VAST choreographed by Graeme Murphy Music by Barry Conyingham Design by Andrew Carter Costumes by Jennijer Irwin Lighting by Kenneth Rayner entral to any celebration of the Aus­ Ctralian arts must be a recognition of the spectacular advances made over the last decade by our dancers and dance companies. In a world precedent, the diversity and energy of four of these companies - the Sydney Dance Com­ pany, The Queensland Ballet, the West Australian Ballet Company and Aus­ tralian Dance Theatre - will be forged together in a specially commissioned ballet - VAST - choreographed by Graeme Murphy and featuring all 69 dancers. VAST will reflect the diversity of our landscapes, the reefs and coastlines, deserts and rainforests and, of course, the uniquely urban situation in which most Australians live. "The new work will reflect the vastness 0/ this country" says Murphy "I don't think you could tackle a subject as huge as this with any less than 69 dancers. It will not be a return to narrative slyle but at the same time I don't want it devoid a/humanity. You have to be bold enough to people that landscape, showing them coming to terms with their environment. Aus­ tralians are finding the beauty in the harshness, strength and vibrance 0/ the colours we dwell in, rather than craving the softness, the pastels and ease oj a more tamed environment. " Murphy will spend a fortnight with each of the four companies getting to know their styles before they come together for joint rehearsals in Sydney Graerne J;furphy rehearses VAST {/{ his sllIdio in Sydney at The Wharf and then Melbourne.

  • A Note from Reg Livermore
    A NOTE FROM REG LIVERMORE Nancye and I have keenly anticipated this chance to work together again, throughout the course of our extensive careers our paths have crossed too rarely. While playing in Opera Australia’s 2008 production of My Fair Lady we talked of devising a kind of autobiographical entertainment that might catch us an audience. Almost two years ago I began to write a show that is now called Turns, it isn’t exactly the show we discussed but it does I think give us a chance to show what we’re made of, show what we like to do on stage and what we think we do best, a series of theatrical turns tailored especially for this occasion. More than that it salutes the particular traditions in the theatre to which we are significant links; what we’ve done and observed in show business for so long now informs the nature and essence of our performances. Turns is a broad reflection on show business, matters of identity, of family and dependency, of the memory, and the commonality of an experience that lies ahead for most of us. Intertwined are some outrageous fun and games, elements of mystery, echoes of slapstick, 1940’s film noir gets a nod as does the music-hall, vaudeville, cabaret, above all traditional pantomime. This kaleidoscopic rainbow of theatrical styles underscores our storyline and makes for an evening in the theatre we hope is appealing and moving. We wouldn’t be standing up in front of you at all but for our producer, Christine Dunstan who has been enthusiastic from the outset; she is a rare breed, a commercial producer prepared to initiate, encourage and develop a show from scratch, she is one whose great love of the theatre has always emboldened her to take the risks.
