MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE
 

My Name Is Rachel Corrie, starring Courtney Miller (from Home & Away) is a one- woman play based on the diaries and emails of Rachel Corrie, a young American aid worker with an intense passion for human rights, equality and justice for all. The play was created by Alan Rickman and Katharine Viner who collated Rachel’s writings into this thought-provoking and at times witty and humorous showcase of Rachel’s extraordinary young life.

In 2003, Rachel left her home and college in Olympia, Washington, to join the International Solidarity Movement in the Middle East, a group that was protesting the demolition of civilian homes in the Gaza strip. Unfortunately, Rachel never made it back home.

    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
