This week's chosen book is from our friends at Wakefield Press: Beyond the Stage - Creative Australian Stories from the Great War, edited by Anna Goldsworthy and Mark Carroll. In the beautifully illustrated Beyond the Stage, essays by leading Australian artists and academics examine the impact of the Great War and its aftermath on creativity and performance in South Australia. There are historical studies of key individuals, such as Adelaide's Telsie Hague, and the role of women performers as fundraisers and active agents of wartime patriotism. The contribution of artistic companies, such as the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, State Opera of South Australia and State Theatre Company, is examined. Steve Vizard dissects the preposterously unlikely - and highly entertaining - encounter between Lawrence Olivier and Mo (aka Roy Rene), helping the reader explore Australian national identity after the Great War. To enter: Like the post, tag a friend and tell us in the comments section: What would you like to see from Traces in 2021? Entries close Monday 1 February 5pm AEST. Australian residents only. |
