Barry Versus Kelly can't be missed Enjoy a cracking yarn about one of Australia’s most infamous characters, Ned Kelly, when the play Barry Versus Kelly hits town on February 6 and 7.
T
he Savernake and Tungamah communities are once again hosting a fabulous production for the community to enjoy with supper, pre-show nibbles and a great social night guaranteed. Barry Versus Kelly is a play with music by Felix Meagher (additional music by Lou Hesterman) about the trial and execution of Ned Kelly in the Old Melbourne Gaol in November 1880. Barry Versus Kelly focuses on the confrontation between Ned and the Judge, Sir Redmond Barry. Barry, whose harsh sentencing of Ned's mother, Ellen, to
three years goal in 1878 sparked the Kelly outbreak, is haunted by Ned's last words to him - "I will see you where I go". The Judge, with a Protestant and land owning backing in Ireland, is fiercely determined to see Irish rebels like Ned Kelly punished, but he fears he might be making a martyr out of Ned, and that history will judge him harshly. Barry wrestles with his conscience and delusions brought on by medications given to him by his nurse, Chloe, and with the fears that his family in Ireland see him as a traitor. Meanwhile Ellen Kelly, on the day before Ned is hanged, sings to Ned that he is the loyal son. Barry finally signs the papers that condemn Kelly and in a dying speech asks that his family be told that "I took a rebel with me".
Barry Versus Kelly features Anthony Penhall as Ned
Kelly (Anthony is well known in Berrigan and Jerilderie
community as a past teacher and for his time at the Blue
Door Cafe ), Cora Browne as Ellen Kelly, Felix Meagher as
Judge Barry, Lucinda Barratt as Chloe and Danny Spooner as Chief Secretary Berry.
Barry Versus Kelly will delight the audience at the Tungamah Memorial Soldier’s Hall, Barr St Tungamah,
Friday February 6 and at Savernake School of Arts Hall, Riverina Highway, on Saturday, February 7.
Tickets – Adults $40, children $10. Pre-show nibbles and drinks and after show country supper included. For Tungamah bookings call Melanie on 0431 157 342 and for Savernake bookings call 02 6035 9134 or 02 6035 9409.
