The Great Fire takes place in the all-too-familiar Australian disaster zone: mum and dad's place at Christmas. On an idyllic Adelaide Hills property, a family gathers to decide the next phase of their lives as part of the ever-gentrifying arts industry in this domestic drama written by Kit Brookman. This reviewer should declare that, having been born and raised in Adelaide and therefore aware of the artistic prowess of the Brookman family there, I may be somewhat biased in my familiarity for this piece. Nevertheless, we carry on.
Belvoir presents THE GREAT FIRE as a kind of companion to THE BLIND GIANT IS DANCING - a pair of plays a generation apart about family, about holding your course, about what will survive of the fading triumph of Australian social democracy. Where The Blind Giant is a political thriller about the corrupting force of power,The Great Fire is a meditation on the tragedy of a generation that, despite its best ambitions, is leaving the world in a worse state than they inherited it.
