Remember the mystical decade that was the 80's?...We don't. In a world entirely constructed from what we have learnt from music videos comes an absurd story fueled by that trademark daggy energy that in turn spawned generation Y. 'History never repeats', in this case lets hope Split Enz were right. The hair, the clothes and the makeup are all back in force as we weave our way through some of the decades most wonderfully crafted tunes, exposing the history (which really happened) and what inspired so many of its artists to pen the songs that can now be found ringing out in karaoke bars across the globe.

Bargain Burials written and directed by John Grimshaw Set in an Australian outback town of ‘Wedgiemugurrah.’ Yer, typical outback town, where years roll by with barely a breath of change. And that’s exactly how the locals, (the Wedgies), prefer it. It’s here in this dusty place, that we meet two born and bred ‘Wedgies,’ Shane and Kev. Local lads who during the day tend the towns parks, gardens and cemetery. Life for Shane and Kev is just ‘bloody bonza mate!’ That is, up until the day technology came to town in the form of a backhoe machine purchased by the owner of the town’s sole funeral parlour. Suddenly, ‘would yer bloody believe it?’ the boys jobs are ‘bloody gone mate!’ Undeterred by their unceremonious dumping, Shane and Kev decide to put their years of experience to good use, and open up a rival funeral parlour. | March 17-21, 25-28 |

Guards Guards ‘Terry Pratchett's infamous city of Ankh Morpork is under threat from sixty foot fire breathing dragon, summoned by a secret society of malcontented tradesmen. Defending Ankh-Morpork against this threat is the entire, underpaid, undervalued City Night Watch - a drunken and world weary Captain, a cowardly and overweight sergeant, an opportunistic Corporal of dubious parentage...and their newest recruit, Lance Corporal Carrot, who is upright, literal, law-abiding and keen. Aiding them in their fight for truth, justice and the Ankh-Morporkian way are a small swamp dragon and the librarian of Unseen University (who just happens to be an orangutan). | March 18-20, 25-27 |

Sixteen Words for Water
Directed by Jeff Watkins Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (October 30, 1885 – November 1, 1972) was an American expatriate poet, critic and intellectual who was a major figure of the Modernist movement in the first half of the 20th century. He is generally considered the poet most responsible for defining and promoting a modernist aesthetic in poetry. He disapproved of American involvement in [WWII] and tried to use his scant political contacts in Washington D.C. to prevent it. When Pound spoke on Italian radio, he gave a series of talks on political and cultural matters, art and patronage and economic theories. Pound believed that economics was the core issue for the cause of World War II. |

Six young people from around the world, including two UWA students, spend one glorious summer together on a Greek island in 1983. They are beautiful, adventurous, idealistic and believe that the world is theirs for the taking. Fast-forward to 2009: These footloose and fancy-free types have turned into successful and driven people who are juggling careers, families and mortgages and are grappling with middle age. Each in their own way, they feel trapped by their life choices and are baffled by their children's youth culture in the new millennium. Will a reunion on their magical Greek island be able to rekindle their spiritual fire? |
