CURRENT PROJECTS
At the age of 92, you're meant to be planning a journey to the next life, not a trip to London to put on a play. Yet this is exactly what playwright Julia Britton is doing.
Julia Britton is an inspirational figure who has led an amazing life. She graduated from Manchester University in the 30s, worked as a journalist in South Africa, then reinvented herself as a Classics lecturer in Adelaide before coming to Melbourne to begin a career as a playwright - at the age of 70!
As soon as Rob George and I heard that Julia and her crew were travelling to Islington to put on a play, we knew we had to follow her, to see if it would pan out to be a huge triumph or a massive disaster.
The film screened on the ABC in June, 2008.
FEARLESS was funded by the ABC, Australian Film Commission, Film Victoria and Ovation.
