Rayma McGrath Morrison also brings a touch of magic in her brief appearances - our link to old magic and dreaming in her theatrical debut. Highly energetic and almost manic, we are gradually drawn completely into his world. Gary Cooper’s Uncle Harvey is an instant hit with the audience, with a dynamic creation of this literally tinfoil hat wearing eccentric. Dr Clint Bracknell’s sound design and composition is great fun. It reveals a myriad of surprises throughout the show, with some highly creative input from Mike Nanning’s lighting design and Mia Holton’s vision design. Matthew McVeigh’s set design immediately gives us hints that this show will be less than conventional, with its slightly crooked little home.
#REVIEW SKYLAB STUDIO TV#
While Uncle Harv is definitely more than a little different, Jem, Nev and their kids have little idea that their world is about to change and that NASA’s Skylab station will fall to earth almost on top of them.ĭescribed as "a contemporary Dreaming story with a whole lot of magic”, this initially slightly larger than life tale, takes a genre shift in Act 2 becoming a warm fantasy that draws heavily on the style of TV show Monkey Magic as well as Dreaming Lore. Set in July 1979 near Esperance, we meet a lovely Aboriginal family preparing for dinner. This World Premiere was introduced this a very warm Welcome to Country and a party atmosphere, very appropriate for a slightly irreverent, fun production that doesn’t take itself terribly seriously. There was a lovely community feel at the opening night of Black Swan State Theatre Company and Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company’s co-production of Skylab.
