Raising the Curtain

Raising the Curtain

Australia’s live theatre history is brought to life in this landmark series. From humble beginnings amidst convict enclaves to a future bright with internationally recognised stars and world-class spectaculars, Australian theatre is celebrated over three jam-packed episodes.

an SBS programme that is an in-depth look at the history of Australian theatre.

Raising the Curtain is a 3 hour series that documents the Australian stage, how it found its unique voice and talks to the people that helped build the industry. Made with the assistance of Screen Australia with archival footage, the real drawcard of this series is the interviews with such luminaries as David Williamson, Geoffrey Rush, Cate Blanchett, John Bell and Ray Lawler.
