  • Queensland Theatre Announces New Artistic Director: Lee Lewis
    September 20, 2019 Queensland Theatre announces new Artistic Director: Lee Lewis Today Queensland Theatre’s Chair Elizabeth Jameson has announced that the new Artistic Director for the company will be well known cultural leader and director, and current Artistic Director and CEO of Griffin Theatre Company, Lee Lewis. “Next year we will celebrate 50 years of being Queensland Theatre: we’ve consolidated the company as the national home of new stories, we will stage the theatrical event of the year in the world premiere of Trent Dalton’s Boy Swallows Universe, adapted for the stage by Tim McGarry and we will welcome Lee Lewis as Artistic Director, taking over from Sam Strong who leaves this company in extraordinary shape,” she said. “Queensland Theatre has made real its vision of leading from Queensland, with key achievements including a new theatre, record audiences and growth, national industry leadership through gender parity of writers and directors for four successive years, more diverse voices, more new stories and world premieres, and the next generation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stories. It is important that our next Artistic Director share our vision and Lee Lewis most certainly does.” Sam Strong said he was delighted that Lee Lewis would be the next Artistic Director of Queensland Theatre. “Lee Lewis and I have shared an office, we’ve co-directed shows, and we have sat together with playwrights into the early hours of the morning talking about their work, and now we will have passed the baton of custodianship of two great companies in Griffin and Queensland Theatre,” he said.

  • Shari Sebbens Looks at 'The Horrible Side' of the Country in Australia Day Garry Maddox 2 June 2017
    Shari Sebbens looks at 'the horrible side' of the country in Australia Day Garry Maddox 2 june 2017 Shari Sebbens is no fan of Australia Day. A Bardi Jabirr Jabirr woman who grew up in Darwin, the Sapphires star thinks of it as Invasion Day and prefers to take time to reflect with her "mob" – family and friends – rather than celebrate. So Sebbens was surprised to hear she had been invited to audition for a new film called Australia Day. Shari Sebbens: "Why would I want to audition for a film called Australia Day?" Photo: Nic Walker "I laughed," she says. "I said 'why would I want to audition for a film called Australia Day?' As an Aboriginal woman, it conjures up that it's going to be some bogan Cronulla riots type thing." But when she read the script, Sebbens was delighted to see the provocative territory the drama was covering – a potent examination of race and identity. "It's taking a look at the horrible side to Australia that people don't like to acknowledge exists, especially on nice summer days when you can just pop on the Hottest 100 and enjoy a tinnie," she says. Sebbens plays an Aboriginal police officer, Senior Constable Sonya Mackenzie, who is caught up in interwoven dramas as three teenagers run away on the national day: a 14- 2 year-old Indigenous girl fleeing a car crash, a 17-year-old Iranian boy running from a crime scene and a 19-year-old Chinese girl escaping sexual slavery. Directed by Kriv Stenders with a cast that includes Bryan Brown, Matthew Le Nevez, Isabelle Cornish and such newcomers as Miah Madden, Elias Anton and Jenny Wu, the topical drama has its world premiere at Sydney Film Festival this month.

    African American Entertainers in Australia and New Zealand: A History, 1788-1941 By Bill Egan McFarland and Co., 270 pp, 2020 Reviewed by Barbara Holloway N THE FIRST VERSION OF THE CHERRY PICKERS (1970), WIRADJURI AUTHOR KEVIN GILBERT HAD his characters pick up their guitars and sing ‘Swanee River’, a well- I known Black American song about longing for ‘de old plantation’. As the drama was described as the first by an Aboriginal writer and the song was known as traditional, it seemed an unexpected choice, for as ‘we’ were then so sure, Aboriginal and Black American experience and history had been so different. Weren’t they? Gilbert replaced ‘Swanee River’ with his own lyrics in the second version of The Cherry Pickers but similar songs connect the two peoples, who have, in different ways, shared the experience of profound destructiveness, cruelty and exploitation at the hands of Europeans. Fifty years later, in 2020, as crowds took to Australian city streets in support of the American Black Lives Matter protests triggered by grief and outrage at the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis, the parallels between Australian Aboriginal deaths in custody and African-American experiences of police brutality and racially motivated violence were brought to national and international attention. And not for the first time. While interested people may have an awareness of the influence of Black American culture on Aboriginal arts and politics in the mid-twentieth century, an earlier history of performers from the States was barely known before the publication of African American Entertainers in Australia and New Zealand.
