SUMMARY:Art From Behind The Wire
DESCRIPTION:Art From Behind the Wire is a new exhibition featuring posters\, magazines and other printed material created by Second World War prisoners of war\, including Major John Champion de Crespigny. \nJohn was among thousands of Australians made prisoners by the Japanese in the early months of 1942. Captivity at the hands of the Japanese is remembered for merciless brutality however the initial experience in some camps was not harsh. To maintain the morale of the inmates\, Champion de Crespigny and others made posters and produced a magazine\, Mark Time\, during their time as POWs in Java. \nThis extraordinary collection offers a glimpse into the uncertainties of life as captives of a cruel and unpredictable enemy. \nThe exhibition also includes four sketches of the Japanese war crimes trials held on Morotai in December 1945\, drawn by Signalman Alex King\, a talented professional newspaper artist. King served with the Australian Corps of Signals and was able to observe some of the trials firsthand. \nThese unique original sketches capture the moment when Japanese soldiers attended makeshift courts sitting in the witness chair. They offer a rare insight into both the trial process and the individuals accused of war crimes.

SUMMARY:The Wrong Gods
DESCRIPTION:In a valley in India\, paintings on a cave wall bear testimony to the presence of people – and their gods – for fifty thousand years. Close by\, Nirmala farms the soil as her ancestors did\, but her daughter Isha wants something more – a city education\, and the opportunity it promises. And there are outsiders in the valley now\, bringing new crops\, new technologies\, new visions of the future. There are new gods loose in the valley. But they are asking Nirmala and her people to pay a heavy price. \nThe Wrong Gods melds mother-and-daughter struggle with the economics of progress\, asking\, what are we worshipping? And what price will we pay?

SUMMARY:The Lover & The Dumb Waiter
DESCRIPTION:THE LOVER\nTrapped in the monotony of middle-class life\, Richard and Sarah’s marriage is on its last legs. Perhaps a lover could reignite their corroding relationship… or is escape from their stifling existence just a fantasy? \nBurning with intrigue and uneasy humour\, Harold Pinter spins a dangerous game of cat and mouse in this steamy psychological drama. \nTHE DUMB WAITER\nBen and Gus have a job to do. As they await instructions\, their silence is disturbed by the rattle of a dumb waiter delivering peculiar food orders. Who is making demands for extravagant dishes when all the two men have is a packet of crisps? \nAs the intensity builds in Pinter’s comedy of claustrophobia\, Ben and Gus begin to question everything… and so will you.

SUMMARY:The Glass Menagerie
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by his own turbulent life\, Tennessee Williams’ timeless portrait of a shattered family is one of the most iconic dramas of the 20th century. \nAmanda Wingfield can’t help but dream of the past — a long-gone adolescence of lavish parties and high society suitors. But her present is anything but dazzling. Living in squalor with her two adult children Tom and Laura\, the bills are piling up and pressure to secure the Wingfield family’s future is swelling. Will a gentleman caller be the answer to their problems?

SUMMARY:Songs of First Desire
DESCRIPTION:This is a superb new play of passion\, history and politics\, intimate in its detail and epic in its storytelling. \nCamelia is losing her grip\, lost between the past and the present as she passes her days in the garden of her Madrid home. Her children employ Alejandro\, a Colombian migrant\, to look after her. But this house isn’t what it seems\, keeping the terrible secrets of history in its stones. As Alejandro’s presence begins to unlock the past\, it shakes a family that has buried its pain – and its country’s – for too long. \nThis is a dazzling piece of writing. Set in 1968 and the present\, it unpicks the instincts that drive individuals and whole societies towards fear and violence – and perhaps\, also\, reconciliation.

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: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.

SUMMARY:A Midsummer Nights Dream
DESCRIPTION:Shakespeare’s classic comedy\, A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, is reawakened in this breathless production brimming with magic\, mirth and mayhem. \nLove is in the air in Athens – and it’s contagious. Besides the royal wedding\, which is just days away\, there are young lovers dreaming of enchanted futures together. Hermia and Lysander are besotted with one another\, while Helena adores Demetrius. The only snag is that Demetrius loves Hermia – and he’s got Hermia’s father on his side. So nobody is happy. (Shakespeare wasn’t kidding when he said the course of true love never did run smooth.) \nDetermined to be together\, Hermia and Lysander meet in a moonlit forest\, with plans to elope. Following hot on their heels is Demetrius\, who in turn is pursued by a lovelorn Helena. But the young lovers are not alone in the forest. Nick Bottom and his hapless bunch of tradies have gathered to rehearse a play to be performed at the royal wedding. And\, hidden from human eyes\, a mischievous sprinkling of fairies are also in the forest that night. The three worlds collide in an explosion of comic confusion that throws the future of all the lovers into jeopardy.

SUMMARY:The Dictionary Of Lost Words
DESCRIPTION:Discover the secret power of words\nIt’s 1886 and the very first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary is being compiled. Four-year-old Esme Nicoll has a front row seat. Well\, she’s hiding under the sorting table\, anyway. As her father and his male colleagues decide which words stay and which go\, Esme collects the discarded (often gendered) scraps to compile her own far more radical\, far more magical dictionary.\nA sweeping historical tale in the spirit of The Harp in the South\, The Dictionary of Lost Words follows Esme from her childhood in the 1880s\, into adulthood at the height of the women’s suffrage movement and the beginning of the First World War.

SUMMARY:Venus and Adonis
DESCRIPTION:It’s 1593. Theatres are closed\, players out of work\, houses bolted\, people terrified by the touch of another’s skin\, the breath of another’s air.  Shakespeare\, syphilitic and dangerously bored\, publishes a scandalous response to the pestilence—an epic work about the very things lost to us\, like intimacy\, identity\, and the erotic freedom of touch.His searing poem\, Venus and Adonis\, rips and tears at the founding myth of why human beings are cursed to love each other\, in every form—him and her\, her-as-him\, him-as-her\, love as equal and unequal\, obscenely arousing and utterly destructive.
