SUMMARY:Julia
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, Julia Gillard gave a speech that sent shockwaves around the world. Now\, over a decade later\, a group of Australia’s finest theatre-makers – Playwright Joanna Murray-Smith\, Director Sarah Goodes\, Designer Renée Mulder\, and an outstanding creative team\, along with Clarke and exciting newcomer Jessica Bentley – have created a stirring and inspiring re-examination of that moment and a revelatory portrait of the woman who made it all happen. \nJulia is both a compelling insight into the person behind the public mask\, and a reflection on the experience of women in contemporary politics.

SUMMARY:In A Nutshell:  The Poetry of Violence
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are new to Shakespeare\, or an aficionado\, you will be entertained\, enriched\, and inspired by this production. \nWhen Shakespeare explores violence it is often epic and cruel\, but never gratuitous. Whether it’s Brutus considering a justification for murder in Julius Caesar\, or Volumnia relishing the bravery and brutality of her warrior son in Coriolanus\, Shakespeare asks questions about our relationship with violence. But he also uses the word to describe the limits of emotion\, and the rashness provoked by love and hate.

SUMMARY:A Case For The Existence Of God
DESCRIPTION:In a hostile and divided world\, Samuel D. Hunter shines a delicate light on the possibility that something sacred can emerge in the connection between two people. \nRyan is straight\, white\, undereducated\, awful with money\, and reeling from a painful divorce from the mother of his child\, while Keith is black\, polished\, financially savvy\, and the gay single caretaker of a foster daughter. When Ryan seeks Keith’s help to secure a loan and buy back land that his family lost\, the two men discover they share “a specific kind of sadness” and unexpectedly choose to bring one another into their fragile worlds. \nInfused with humour\, honesty and grace\, Hunter’s extraordinary play shows us that\, maybe\, there’s hope for us all.

SUMMARY:The Tempest/Hag-Seed Symposium
DESCRIPTION:“…be not afeard\, the isle is full of noises…” \nOne of Shakespeare’s truly original and most personal plays\, The Tempest is a symphonic vision of forgiveness\, discovery and self-discovery. Famous for its language\, context\, enchanting characters and breathtaking theatricality\, the play is a reflection of the world’s most famous playwright at the height of his powers and at the end of his remarkable career. \nThis tempest is not only in Prospero – the storm lies in the contradictions and ambiguities the story throws up about freedom and slavery\, civilisation and barbarism\, legacy and letting go\, lust and chastity\, youth and age\, revenge and forgiveness. The sea is a place of transformation but also represents the capriciousness of nature\, chaos\, or fate.

SUMMARY:Richard III
DESCRIPTION:Sport for Jove’s Richard III returns after a hugely successful season in 2023. Seen through the eyes of Elizabeth I this production gives students an incredible insight into the play and when it was written. \nThis production is an essential tool for students to come to grips with this play’s innate theatricality and plethora of challenging characters when comparing it to Al Pacino’s Looking for Richard. Don’t let your students miss this opportunity to see and hear the play live. \nPeace at last in the land of the free! \nBut while a gruesome war has ended and the world dances\, one dangerous mind is still in the trenches\, his language weaponised and targeted on every point of weakness around him. He will take no prisoners on his rampage to the top.

SUMMARY:Henry IV (Part 1)
DESCRIPTION:Redemption? Disgrace? Honour? Legitimacy? Love? Glory? What sort of world do the young inherit from the old\, and what should we fight for? What makes a truly great leader? Henry IV (Part 1) is a play made for our time. Shakespeare looks back at history to imagine his nation’s future and turns an immense and kaleidoscopic national lens on the most simple and human of relationships – the family. \nThe play is moving\, funny and thrillingly chaotic\, swaying on a tightrope of irrational thought and behaviour trying to maintain its sanity and balance\, tumbling from conniving politics to saturnalian madness as people at every level of English society grasp for power\, notoriety\, fame and loyalty from those around them

SUMMARY:24th Biennale of Sydney - Ten Thousand Suns
DESCRIPTION:Ten Thousand Suns departs from an acknowledgement of a multiplicity of perspectives\, cosmologies\, and ways of life that have always woven together the world under the sun. This central life-giving body\, like the world it shines light upon\, has otherwise been known under thousands of different words in as many languages. But many of these cultural viewpoints have in fact not relied on a vision of a single sun. \nA multiplicity of suns conveys ambiguous images. It evokes a scorching world\, both in several cosmological visions and very much in our moment of climate emergency. But it also conveys the joy of cultural multiplicities affirmed\, of First Nations understandings of the cosmos brought to the fore\, and of carnivals as forms of resistance in contexts that have surpassed colonial oppression. The 24th Biennale of Sydney works with these different layers of meaning\, acknowledging the deep ecological crises derived from colonial and capitalist exploitation while refusing to concede to an apocalyptic vision of the future. This politics of doom are seen as an attempt by the same forces that have caused these multiple crises to control possibilities to overcome them. The 24th Biennale of Sydney proposes instead solar and radiant forms of resistance that affirm collective possibilities around a future that is not only possible\, but necessary to be lived in joy and plenitude\, produced in common and shared widely. \nAround this central theme and ethos\, the 24th Biennale of Sydney goes deeper into different connected threads. One of them is the history and the imagination around the atomic era\, as a concentrated version of the history of climate alteration through human exploitation\, but also as a specific history that places Australia at the core of the atomic era which has largely been staged in the broader Pacific region. Another thread follows a lineage of largely repressed or misconstrued moments that have been crucial in the history of Australia and have involved relations with the Muslim world. These include the complex exchanges between First Nations and Muslim Makassars over many centuries; the history of cameleers from across South and West Asia\, trafficked to the country in the 19th century and later exiled due to the introduction of the White Australia policy; the formation of an Australian national identity as a consequence to the loss at Gallipoli in the First World War\, orchestrated from London as an anti-jihad preventive campaign; Australia’s history of racist anti-migration policies\, as well as the broader role that Islamophobia plays in processes of othering in contemporary life in the country.
