WORLD PREMIERE

WHITENOISE:12 ghosts BY KATHLEEN MARY FALLON & MARYANNE LYNCH Who remembers where they were …? Whitenoise:12 Ghosts crawls into the death chamber of White Australia’s memory banks and pulls out a pretty little mess. Lindy Chamberlain: Been there, done that. Mamdouh Habib: Been there, done that. First Gulf War: Seen it all before.

WRITER AND PERFORMER Kathleen Mary Fallon PRODUCER AND DIRECTOR Maryanne Lynch

But what about how much we think we are savvy but living in the grip of the spin of the 24-hour news cycle, the prevalence of fake news and the avalanche of information on media platforms? Whitenoise:12 Ghosts excavates the violence of overwhelming power through three iconic events and drags it into the bloody today. ABOUT THE ARTISTS - KATHLEEN MARY FALLON Kathleen Mary Fallon’s latest book is A fixed place: the long and short of story. As the white foster mother of an Indigenous son she wrote a feature film, Call Me Mum, a novel Paydirt and a play, Buyback. Working Hot won a Victoria Premier’s Prize. She wrote the libretti for Matricide – the Musical and a concert piece, Laquiem, performed in The Studio at the Sydney Opera House. She lectured in creative writing at the University of Melbourne for eight years and holds a PhD (UniSA).
