Pricey Grif-friend,

Effectively, howdy there! My title’s Dylan, and I’ve simply jumped on the Griff-train as our brand-new Literary Supervisor! What’s that, you may ask? Effectively, I take care of all issues literary—creating new performs (numerous chats and whiteboard-time with playwrights as we steer a brand new story on its journey to the Stables), constructing relationships with the excellent expertise that exists in Australia, and baking desserts (not formally in my job description, however I received’t let that cease me).

Vaguely holding on to my prepare metaphor, I’m additionally thrilled to share that I’m not the one new steam engine on the tracks right here at Griffin; we’re delighted to welcome Cassie Hamilton into the station! Cassie can be our Affiliate Producer, and also you’ll have an opportunity to listen to from her within the coming weeks! 

As we transfer into the week to return (and switching to a completely completely different metaphor), we’re making ready to say farewell to the fabulous, sparkly, OMG-ness of Pony by Eloise Snape! What a experience! In case you haven’t saddled up already and witnessed this hilarious and poignant exploration of motherhood, get your boots on! And for many who don’t thoughts a gallop down the Hume, you may catch Pony–starring one-woman powerhouse Briallen Clarke–because it lands in our nation’s capital with our associates on the Canberra Theatre Centre. 

In different thrilling information, we’ve received Suzie Miller’s Jailbaby in rehearsal. You’ll know Suzie as the author behind the worldwide smash hit Prima Facie, which is presently gorgeous audiences on Broadway as I write (and stars newly-minted Tony winner Jodie Comer!). Helmed by our Affiliate Inventive Director Andrea James, our inventive workforce is tough at work bringing this difficult however essential work to the stage. Tickets are already operating out the door for Jailbaby, so don’t wait!

And lastly, as we scoot in the direction of the top of the monetary yr (EOFY for these of you who love an acronym, identical to I do!), think about donating to Griffin earlier than 30 June. Bringing new writing to the stage is our sport, and supporting as many artists as potential is our intention! We’re grateful for any assist you can provide—all of it provides up.

Effectively, that’s it from me! I’m off to learn some extra exiting Australian performs (and to excellent a Persian Love Cake). I sit up for saying g’day the following time you trot on all the way down to the Stables!

Keep groovy,
Dylan x
