CHART a course through the story of Australian comedy with the complete collection of Stop Laughing... This is Serious. Narrated by Eric Bana and Colin Lane, the six-part documentary, over two series, features more than 100 interviews with the men and women who make us laugh, including Barry Humphries, Celia Pacquola, Charlie Pickering, Magda Szubanski, Wendy Harmer, Shaun Micallef, Paul Hogan, Chris Taylor and many more. Through intimate conversations, classic archival footage and a detailed retelling of Australian social history, you'll see how our beloved jokesters from stand-up, radio, television, theatre and film, to the new viral media sensations of today, all understand one sacred truth - that every Australian's greatest gift is the ability to laugh at ourselves. Series 1 explores the development of Australian comedy through social and political change, examining the way humour has reflected and responded to multicultural Australia, gender issues and politics. Series 2 delves deeper into the defining moments of Australian comedy and how those involved shaped our comedic voice. It also examines women in comedy and the eclectic genre of variety. The DVDs also include special bonus material. The Senior has five copies to give away. For your chance to win, tell us in 25 words or less why you need a good laugh. http://www.thesenior.com.au/competitions/win/ Entries close April 1. |
