It explores his personality, family life and relationships with prominent people of the era.

Discovering The Governor Friday 25 February Paul Brunton, Senior Curator, Mitchell Library, State Library NSW will share little-known insights about the state’s fifth and longest serving colonial governor who turned a penal colony into a free society. Teachers will learn about exploration and expansion in the colony during the Macquarie era, which included a series of landmark tours by Macquarie and the establishment of many new settlements, including Port Macquarie. This is a wonderful opportunity to explore the exhibition, ask questions and link into our local heritage.

The Garden of Forking Paths An exhibition of Historic & Contemporary Artists’ Computer Games A d/lux/MediaArts, NSW touring Exhibition
4 February – 3 April The Garden of Forking Paths exhibition draws together notable historic and contemporary computer games created by artists that push the bounds of the genre and break the orthodox set of rules. The presented pieces span the last three decades - from Jaron Lanier's 1983 Commodore64 game Moondust through to Tale-of-Tales 2009 release The Path - a period which has seen incredible advances in technology and the birth of the information age. All of the pieces in the show can be played by visitors and will raise many questions about the individual artists perspective on play, narrative, technology and interaction.

Rainbow’s End By Jane Harrison
8 & 9 July Three generations of Koorie women, Nan Dear, her feisty daughter Gladys and clever teenage Dolly live on the outskirts of a country town in a shack on the river banks. For Nan, even life on ‘the Flats’ represents progress of a kind, but Gladys has bigger ambitions for a real house and a real job for Dolly in the town. When Gladys takes on buying the Encyclopaedia Britannica to improve Dolly’s chances, their lives take an unexpected turn. Set against the Queen’s visit in the 1950’s with music from the period, this tender, funny play is a story of hope and belonging. Most of all it is a celebration of the triumph of human spirit as the three feisty women fight for an equal chance and acceptance in a conservative white, post-colonial community.

PRIMARY & SECONDARY - FOR STUDENTS : ON EXHIBITION Reading The Body A d/lux/MediaArts, NSW touring Exhibition
11 August – 8 October A single screen/double video installation that juxtaposes a filmed dancer with a poem – Reading the Body. The installation offers a rich cinematic and spatial rendering of the body and the text of the poem. Inspired by the whimsical nature of the text, curious animations of bones and organs partner the dancer, revealing the body for scrutiny. Reading the Body explores the collaborative narrative possibilities between text and movement. How does poetry influence the reading of the language of movement and in turn, the body. Both text and moving image are screened simultaneously, from two different angles, onto a suspended perspex screen. The angle and placement of the viewer in relation to the screen, determines whether text or film is observed. Ideally the audience moves to encounter both the poem and the dance. FOR STUDENTS: WORKSHOPS 23 August - 26 August Join us a special look at the artwork Reading the Body with choreographer Sue Healy. Students will explore this exhibition and participate in a workshop that incorporates body movement and dance. Date: Tuesday 23 August – Friday 26 August Times: 10am & 1pm Cost: Free with booking request.

PRIMARY - FOR STUDENTS : PERFORMANCE The Happiest Show On Earth Friday 2 September Inspired by the Medicine Shows of the early 1900s, this new production for K – 6 students, explores the theme of children’s happiness in a story emblazoned with foot-stomping music and dazzling vaudevillian theatrics involving magic, illusion and comedy. Doctor Terrence Jupiter Smith shares his secret of happiness, whilst entertaining us with the Fabulous Flea Circus, the Sensational Sharp-Shooting Carrots, the Hilarious Happ-o-meter, the Amazing Machine, the Cuddly Koala Man and a Lighter-than-Air Levitation Act that goes embarrassingly wrong. Doctor Smith’s sister, Dorothy Venus Smith and a ventriloquist doll named Danny, save the day. Using the bluff and bluster of outrageously tacky salesmanship, orchestrated by a raft of smoke and mirror tricks, three intrepid performers of the medicine show tradition entice their young audience into buying into their bizarre claims regarding their little blue bottle of magic. Full of comedy, spectacle, circus, magic and music, the show provides an entertaining "take" on the world of the "hard sell" using the traditions of ye old-time medicine show. A perfect show for the four-year-old who wants everything.
