Now her granddaughter, the playwright Dalara Williams, has written a play celebrating the historic vibrancy of RedfernGet our weekend culture and lifestyle emailOn a Friday night in April 1966, 16-year-old Norma Ingram was one of seven young Aboriginal women formally “presented” as part of the inaugural Sydney Indigenous debutante ball at Paddington Town Hall. “It was a lot of that old English stuff, ‘coming out into society’,” the Wiradjuri woman says of the event, which was attended by some 200 Aboriginal people.Revellers passed under a boomerang arch to enter the hall, which was festooned with Indigenous motifs in ochre colours.

7 d. ago Dying for Sex to The Bondsman: the seven best shows to stream this week

Michelle Williams stars in a beautiful and hilarious story about a woman with cancer embarking on a voyage of sexual discovery. Plus: Kevin Bacon plays a bounty hunter for the devil in his truly daft new showWho knows how they would react to receiving a life-threatening health diagnosis? The response of Molly Kochan was striking: when she was told her cancer was incurable, she left her husband for a voyage of sexual discovery. After all, the couple had stopped having sex anyway because of her chemotherapy (“You said my bald head made you think about my dad”). Based on a podcast about the final stages of Molly’s life, this comedy drama starring Michelle Williams is beautifully realised – a story about sex, love, friendship and grasping life’s intensity. It’s full of human warmth and complexity and, crucially, is very funny which is probably the only way such a story could be told. Disney+, from Friday 4 April Continue reading...
