| Synopsis: | The Doyle Carmen is updated to the Spanish Civil War, in a period of exhaustion and treachery and needless bloodshed, oddly reminiscent of Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida. It is not a staging for those who like their Carmens to be flecked with sunshine and sangria and bulifights and all the joys of a Spanish holiday; this is a bitter, dark, sensational reading in which Carmen herself is well into a raddled middle-age, and the whole production is right in your face, high in energy, low in romance. This is a Carmen in angry closeup instead of the usually more gentle longshot. Sheridan Morley, Spectator | |||||

 | Australia, 1996. The winds of change begin to blow like a gale through the nation as a new government has taken the reins. 'From now on people will have to make their own way in the world. People will no longer be rewarded for being weak. The madness is over& The people have spoken. This is what they want, this is what we voted for, and if you don't see it like me, then you are out of step. So get used to it.' Nick's out of step; he's a writer. No writer has ever lived in Liberal Street before. And the residents are making sure he knows it. In this timely satire, John Doyle's infectious humour takes an affable, yet sublimely sharp tilt at an Australia we all recognise. | |||||
