Desmond Dingle and Raymond Box have a plan – no, a “vision”! In the comic tradition of The Goons and Monty Python these two rather over-ambitious amateur thespians set themselves the challenge of recreating the starry, splendid night of Jesus’ birth on their own, with a cast of two, management-resistant opera singer and very little else. Assuming the roles of Mary, Joseph, Herod, the Archangel Gabriel, the Three Wise Men (yes, all of them), Caesar, a small cluster of farm animals, God and everyone in between, Desmond and Raymond trip, slip, giggle and bluff their way through this laugh-a-minute epic on a shoestring. Starring Tasmanian performers Guy Hooper and Iain Lang, The Messiah is a rib-tickling night out of truly Biblical proportions. Prepare-Ye to laugh! “Ridiculously funny yet gloriously exhilarating...” THE GUARDIAN “…tongue in cheek comic splendour.” TIME OUT PRESENTS THE MESSIAH By PATRICK BARLOW Additional material by John Ramm, Julian Hough and Jude Kelly HO-HO-HOBART, GET READY TO LAUGH!

Single Tickets: $21 to $42 available from October 6 Theatre Royal Box Office (03) 6233 2299 or online at tastheatre.com Duration: 2 Hours (approx) including one interval This play holds a special place in my heart. I don’t think have ever laughed as much watching any other live performance. It is one of those rare pieces of theatre that appeals to all ages. In my own family, my 81 year-old mother loved it and my 6 yearold son loved it too! This material is comedy gold – hilarious and inspiring but not in any way offensive. hope you enjoy two of Tasmania’s most experienced actors as they stumble their way through their ridiculous journey. CHARLES SAYS: 7 6 Three lost souls living by the edge of Savage River – now little more than dam, mine and a ghost town in Tasmania’s north-west. From a ramshackle hut by the water, Kingsley forages living with his young son, Tiger. Times are tough and money is in short supply but with good humour, invention and resilience they make the best of it, bundled together as family. One night, Kingsley returns with a stranger, the beguiling Jude. Seemingly in trouble, disorientated and with a moral compass way out of whack, she unwittingly changes their lives overnight. Jude settles into a routine that is far from her own. She seems happy enough to enjoy Tiger and Kingsley’s attention, and let history slip her by… History, though, has a habit of catching up with you. However fast you run. A warm, affectionate and moving story of the glimpsing of freedom and the weight of that which shackles us. Savage River is new contemporary Tasmanian theatre co-produced by the Tasmanian Theatre Company, Melbourne Theatre Company and Griffin Theatre Company. “…a beautifully crafted, captivating, affective, almost magical production.” STATE OF THE ARTS on the writer’s previous work Ray’s Tempest Every year have the privilege of attending the Australian Play Festival, an event that showcases the best new Australian play writing. For me there were two really outstanding new works at the 2008 festival and one of them happened to be set in our very own Tarkine region. am proud to include the World Premier Season of Savage River in co-production with Griffin Theatre Company and Melbourne Theatre Company, in our inaugural season. Steve Rogers’ inspiration for this play came from growing up in Launceston and his frequent visits to Tasmania as an adult. At primary school, Steve was taught there were no Tasmanian Aborigines that they were extinct. But two neighbourhood friends were from Tasmanian Aboriginal families. This childhood confusion began the journey of this finely crafted piece of theatre about belonging, relationships and closeness set in our own backyard. Enjoy!

The Depression also spawned significant theatre institutions including The Actors Studio founded by the legendary Lee Strasburg. Strasburg’s acting method influenced a generation of American actors like Marlon Brando, Dustin Hoffman, Marilyn Monroe and Paul Newman. The 1930’s saw the growth of Left-wing and worker controlled theatre. The US government established the Federal Theatre Australian stories, universal stories, stories that invite you to laugh, cry, admire, reflect and applaud. There are no dire predictions here just excitement and anticipation of a year of great theatre. am proud to introduce the first season of the Tasmanian Theatre Company. Come on the journey with us as we share and celebrate something extraordinary CHARLES ARTISTIC DIRECTOR And the audience will be the beneficiary. Tasmania has in recent years experienced a renaissance in our arts and culture. Increases in arts grants, the establishment of Ten Days on the Island, the redevelopment of the TMAG, and individual success stories simply too plentiful to list have created a critical mass of artistic and cultural excellence. Stepping into that renaissance and renewing the promise of the performing arts in our State – is the Tasmanian Theatre Company. DAVID PREMIER OF TASMANIA 1

Mangkaja Arts Resource AgencyMangkaja was caught up in the excitement as the opportunity came to travel back to traditional lands in the Great Sandy Desert and into the ranges and river country.The centre made many trips to artists’ countries, often in tandem with the Kimberley Land Council.The trips provided rich and rewarding experiences for the artists as they saw again, the county that they had known since birth. Many of the artists were young adults before they left their traditional lands. Seeing these places again infused the work with strengthened vision and the reafrmation of their

Mangkaja was auspiced through the Economic Development arm of Karrayili Adult Education Centre and the title of the rst exhibition gave recognition to the pivotal role that Karrayili played in the seeding of the art centre. Nineteen artists and ve staff members travelled 4000km in an old coaster bus to attend the opening. It was the rst time that many of the artists had travelled beyond the Kimberley and the adventure became legendary. In 2001, again the artists made the pilgrimage to Tandanya, travelling in hired bus and the art centre Toyota.The occasion was their tenth anniversary exhibition.The number of artists had increased to twenty nine, commensurate with the developments that had taken place over the preceding ten years. The early to mid 1990s were exciting time in the Kimberley with the High Court’s
knowledge of their ngurrara and riwi (country). Along with making the art centre’s rst foray in to the desert in 1993, Mangkaja became independently incorporated under the Aboriginal Councils and Association Act. It followed the model of many of the art centres across the north and was run by an active, assertive and at times argumentative committee.The relationship with Karrayili remained strongest in the management style of the centre. Through their training at Karrayili, the artists had learnt the value of taking on the responsibility of making decisions as committee members and in instructing staff on policy and planning matters.The strength of the management committee has been very positive aspect of Mangkaja since its inception. While the emphasis has been on consensus decisions that would draw in all of the artists, there has also been recognition for individual artists in awards and prizes that they have collected. Daisy Andrews won the coveted National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award in 1994, Dorothy May was awarded the work on paper prize in 1995,Wakartu Cory Surprise received the same award two years later and Spider Snell was the winner of the painting category in 2004. More recently, In 2010 Wakartu Cory Surprise won rst prize in the prestigious Western Australian Indigenous Art Award, Sonia Kurrara won the painting prize in the same event and Lisa Uhl was awarded the Kimberley Art Prize’s Emerging Artist Award in 2011.
