Starstruck: Australian Movie Portraits

By on September 30, 2018 in

Friday 14 September — Friday 30 November 2018

A collaborative project between the National Film and Sound Archive and the National Portrait Gallery, Starstruck: Australian Movie Portraits reveals never-before-seen stories of Australian cinema. Through photographic portraits, candid behind-the-scenes shots, rare film posters, casting books and original costumes, Starstruck celebrates the past and present of Australian film—including watershed moments in cinema and iconic visions of Australian life—and also offers a glimpse into the experiences of the actors and crew. The exhibition explores how cinema portraiture can create a bridge between the magic of a movie’s fictional worlds and the realities of filmmaking.

A National Film and Sound Archive of Australia and National Portrait Gallery exhibition supported by the National Collecting Institutions Touring and Outreach Program, presented by Samstag Museum of Art for the 2018 Adelaide Film Festival.

Molly Reynolds & Rolf de Heer: The Waiting Room

By on September 30, 2018 in

Friday 14 September — Friday 30 November 2018

Time begins, ends and goes astray in The Waiting Room. It is the place between ‘before’ and ‘after’. A place where realities converge and diverge. In The Waiting Room, we are transported to that place, where the elusive yet exacting nature of time reveals itself.

International award-winning filmmakers Molly Reynolds and Rolf de Heer, together with visual designer Mark Eland and sound designer Tom Heuzenroeder, present a cinematic installation in five dimensions, traversing the audio-visual realm through space and time. Continuing the Samstag Museum of Art’s series of moving image commissions in partnership with the Adelaide Film Festival, The Waiting Room is Reynolds’s and de Heer’s first foray into creating work expressly for an exhibition context. Matching technical dexterity with conceptual depth, it promises to push the boundaries of the cinematic experience.

“Adulting” Tash York is back

By on August 12, 2018 in

What happens at A club, stays at A club.

After an incredible Adelaide Fringe season with her hit show “Adulting” Tash York is back – and she’s back 6 months early! As a long time performer of the Adelaide Fringe, York is bringing her 5 star comedy cabaret to one of Adelaide’s most beloved venues, The A Club.

 Starting with it’s origins on twitter the term “Adulting” has become a huge online trend basically describing or congratulating oneself for doing “Grownup things”.  Things such as holding down a job, paying your bills on time, cooking dinner (that doesn’t just involve going to a Macca’s Drive-Thru) and even doing your taxes.

Tash York has paved a lot of her cabaret success from her previous award-winning show These Things Take Wine which showcased a lot of her own life experiences and this show promises much more of this signature style. ‘There seems to be a huge divide as to whether “Adulting” is a good or bad thing. As a person I often don’t make the most “Adult” life choices – well maybe that’s because I’ll never be able to afford my own house?” laughs York.

York is thrilled to be back in Adelaide again with her award-winning  solo show, after recieving huge success with it at Adelaide Fringe earlier this year. Known for her ballsy voice, dynamic energy York will be sure to  provide an evening of matchless comedy-cabaret in her new show ‘Adulting’. Pass up on some smashed avo and buy a ticket to see her in action!

 ‘York is a true talent audiences are lucky to experience‘ – Theatre People

‘Tash is captivating, extremely talented and will immerse you in her musical world’ – The Beat

‘Tash York, one of Melbourne’s great cabaret artists’ – We Know Melbourne
