Ed. Grad. Dip. Adolescent Health & Welfare Grad. Dip. Experiential & Creative Arts Therapy Master of Counselling Master of Arts (Research) School of Education, and Professional Studies Arts, Education and Law Group Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2017 ii ABSTRACT This arts-based thesis focuses on notions of mapping a home of belonging. By investigating creative ways to re-story our past, present, and future, it considers what we might do to satisfy this basic human longing and necessity. Born out of a personal need, the study could be seen as a response to the growing social problem of loneliness and anxiety throughout the Western world and, more particularly, in the arts industry. Underpinned by a social constructionist paradigm, the research has engaged with a range of ideas and methods from Theatre, Postmodern Therapies, and the Human Potential Movement, as well as studies in Home culture and mythology. This interdisciplinary approach has been driven by my own arts practice, which was deployed to devise and stage three original performances—Home (2012, 2015), Eve (2012, 2017), and He Dreamed a Train (2014, 2017)—collectively entitled The Belonging Trilogy.

  • The Blood Votes Program Final Draft
    Thanks and acknowledgements Queensland Government UQ Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences UQ Faculty of Drama Holy Trinity parish and community, Fortitude Valley Mary Kelly Queensland Theatre Western Dyer Productions Dean Moulds (Gala Night beverages) Front-Of-House and Backstage Volunteers Australian War Memorial (ARTV10140, RC0037, RC00313) Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble presents THE BLOOD VOTES A play by Michael Futcher, directed by Rob Pensalfini Conscription – a nation at war Alone among the combatant nations of WWI, in 1916-17 Australians experienced a long and tormented debate on the issue of compulsory military service. Conscription, and the arguments it sparked, dominated home front life during 1916 and 1917, posing difficult questions about citizenship, duty, loyalism and free speech. It seemed the very character of Australian democracy was on trial. As casualties mounted, town halls and parliamentary chambers across the country echoed with voices of urgency, moralism and dissent. Men and women, the young and old, voiced their heartfelt views on either side, for or against, often inflected by grief, anxiety, and the dreadful personal cost of this ‘Great War’. As we remember WWI, no other aspect of home front life so clearly captures the strains of the ANZAC generation as they coped with the appalling stresses of mass warfare. The Blood Votes is dedicated to the memory of Errol O’Neill. It is staged with the generous assistance of the Queensland Government and the UQ Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. Director’s notes Like most people educated in Australia, I was brought up on the Anzac myth of a nation forged and united by its involvement in World War I.

It is dependent on volunteer workers for its functioning and is governed by a Council or Board all of whom serve in a voluntary capacity. For its ongoing financial viability pro-am theatre is generally reliant on Federal and State Government funding bodies plus box office profit.
