Lisa Maza is a singer, actor, writer and film-maker. It is no surprise that she has accomplished such vast artistic endeavour, growing up surrounded by theatre-makers; her father being the legendary trailblazer, Robert Maza. Lisa made her stage debut at the age of eight, playing a little boy called ‘Pumpkinhead' in Robert Merritt's The Cakeman. It was the first all Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander-run production performed at the newly formed National Black Theatre, and was directed by Robert Maza. In 2007 she began co-writing with her sister, their autographically inspired theatre show Sisters of Gelam, which premiered at Malthouse Theatre in 2009. In 2011 Lisa travelled to London to perform in Belvoir's Production of The Sapphires. In 2016, Lisa performed in Kate Miller-Heidke's award-winning ‘The Rabbits', a collaboration between Opera Australia and Perth-based Barking Gecko Theatre Company, adapted from the picture book by John Marsden and Shaun Tan by librettist Lally Katz. In addition to her eclectic performance career, her theatre writing and documentary-making, Lisa has expanded her skill set along the way in a range of other areas that include theatre administration, tour managing, project management, MC work, and associate producing. Lisa performs in the triple Oliver Award winning stage show of Emilia which is making its Australian debut at Art Centre Melbourne from 10-27 November. The production will then tour to Canberra. Written by British playwright Morgan Lloyd Malcolm in the midst of the Me Too movement, this Australian production features a team entirely made up of women and non-binary creatives from diverse cultural backgrounds as they unite to celebrate women's voices through the story of this trailblazing forgotten woman.

From her home in Los Angeles, playwright Lally Katz creates a monologue for MTC that began as a reflection on Melbourne during a time of great change and evolved into a waking dream about life, death, past, present and pandemics. The monologue is performed by Emily Goddard, directed by MTC Associate Director Petra Kalive and with a sound design by Emah Fox.

Stream episodes on demand from www.bitesz.com (mobile friendly) Minnie & Liraz The Autumn Road Retirement Village in Caulfield has a fiercely competitive bridge club, but with old age doing its inevitable work, no bridge partnership lasts for long. When Minnie loses her playing partner in an unfortunate swimming accident, Liraz is desperate for them to team up. You see, Minnie has a granddaughter and Liraz has a grandson. Both are hopelessly single. Laying all her cards on the table, Minnie is bidding hearts. After her success with Neighbourhood Watch, playwright Lally Katz returns to MTC with a characteristically oddball story of kindly Jewish grandparents and raw ambition. As riotously funny and brilliantly original as you would expect a brainchild of Lally Katz to be, Minnie & Liraz has a misfit charm that will leave you grinning. Award-winning director Anne-Louise Sarks (Medea) returns to conduct a great cast in which veterans Nancye Hayes AM (Funny Girl) and Sue Jones (Other Desert Cities) mix with comedy darling Virginia Gay (Seven’s Winners and Losers).

Sarah Corridon speaks to award-winning playwright Lally Katz about her new play 'Minnie & Liraz'. Lally shares her habit, and fear, of writing friends and family into her plays, and tells us why theatre remains her first love.

Jersey born, Australian raised playwright Lally Katz (THINGS I WANT TO TELL YOU IN PERSON, NEIGHBOUHOOD WATCH) appears to have moved to Los Angeles. So far she is loving everything about it - the instacommunity, the freeways, the people, even the Californian hook turns. We discuss her obsession with New York psychics, her procrastination tools of choice and getting polite nudges from Gillian Armstrong via Instagram to get back to work. She shares her struggles with trusting her instincts with screenwriting, her annual new years resolution to see less theatre and watch more TV and her desire to pull the rug out from under herself. Be careful what you wish for! 

Adam talks to playwright Lally Katz.

On this week's podcast Playwright and dramatist Lally Katz talks about her new musical, Timeshare. The Breakfasters share stories of funny nicknames they have been called over the years. Sean "Birdman" Dooley drops by to discuss Anzac Day from a bird's perspective, and discusses birds that find themselves on battlefields. Theatre Director Wesley Enoch talks about his theatre production "Black Diggers", which tells the story of the indigenous soldiers of World War I.

"At the end of Keating's prime-ministership, he was talking about embracing complexity and multiculturalism, and the difficulties there. Howard's masterstroke was to come in and say: "I want Australians to be comfortable about their past, their present and their future." Which is to say, "we're not going to talk about this anymore." And I feel like, since that period, we have not had a robust national conversation. Where is the cultural discourse about any of this stuff? We've had the apology, great; but that is not the end. Kevin Rudd's apology should have been the beginning of this, kind of, great evolution in the way Australians see themselves. But I think that's failed." - Mark Wilson "I would characterise the Australian experience as, unfortunately, having to reflect a majority, and a popular view - more than art is required to in other cultures." - Marcel Dorney In episode four of Audio Stage, our studio is full. We have gathered some of our favourite people, to talk about what it means to work in contemporary Australian theatre, and operate without history. Fleur is away for a wedding (luckily, not hers!), but the magic of technology, and Kieran's amazing production skills, keep her present. Meanwhile, Jana is joined in the studio by: Marcel Dorney, Artistic Director of Melbourne independent theatre collective Elbow Room Productions; John Kachoyan, Co-Artistic Director of MKA: Theatre of New Writing; and Mark Wilson, independent theatre-maker and dramaturg. "[The ruthlessly contemporary adaptations of classics] reflects - in a strange way - a kind of fantasy that white Australians have about themselves: that we can be the subject of great drama without coming to terms with our history." - Marcel Dorney Discussed in this episode: the first European play ever performed in Australia, Oriel Gray's The Torrents, the 'state of the nation' play, John Howard and Paul Keating, the curse of the binaries of 'Australian' and 'unAustralian', watching theatre for information, Barrie Kosky and all our greatest theatre exports, being allowed to fail, generational warfare, Sisters Grimm and Declan Greene, killing art with egalitarianism, Lally Katz, and the theatre-enhancing properties of cheap airfares. "I find it interesting that we know more about a theatre culture that is so different and so vast, and so removed, than we do about 10 years ago. [It creates] people that think they've invented the wheel. Every 10 years a generation stands up on stage and applauds itself for inventing, I don't know, postdramatic theatre, or moving away from the text, or rediscovering the text." - John Kachoyan Enjoy and stay tuned: we have more exciting and intellectually rigorous conversations to come.
