SATIRE

Sir Murray Rivers QC

Sir Murray Rivers QC (retired) is one of Australia's most controversial legal and political figures. He is a former Victorian Supreme Court Judge and an outspoken media commentator, often described by his friends as ‘The Graham Richardson of the Liberal Party’. He is pompous, politically incorrect.

His forthright speech –‘The State of The Colony’ address, covers a wide range of controversial topics such as Corporate Governance and ethics in banking, Leadership, his views on IVF programs, the dangers of Kevin Rudd and introducing a Republic, Greenhouse emissions and the environment, plus whatever else he feels like pontificating upon.

This is a hilariously clever thirty minutes of humour and wit which confronts serious current social and political issues in a satirical way that only Bryan can deliver.

Roly Parks – Letter from Kalangadoo

Roly Parks lives in a town called Kalangadoo - a real town in the South east of Australia. Each week Roly writes a letter to his son, Gene, who lives in London with his partner, Ahmed. The letters are about Roly’s life in Kalangadoo. They are both ironic and humorous but they can also be deeply touching, ranging from his ongoing encounters with his former wife of fifty years, Sonya, to his run-ins with the town gossip Beryl Coates or with the burial of his best mate ‘Bull’ Devine.

This is Australian story telling at its finest. A thoroughly entertaining forty five minutes by one of Australia’s finest humourists. Dealing with aging, facing your maker and trying to stay afloat in a world that bears no resemblance to the one Roly grew up in. Roly’s not complaining about the changes, he’s just trying - like all of us - to make bloody sense of it.
