Melancholia

JOY 94.9 has installed a revolving door for all the killer guests lined up to talk to Australia’s best all-female drive show, and this week D&M spoke with Leeanna Walsman and Maude Davey about their roles the stage adaptation of Melancholia. Visit here for more info, or just get down to the show and see what they’re doing for yourselves. On the night of her boisterous wedding—amid corsages, canapés and Clicquot—Justine quietly falls apart. The world will surely follow suit. Justine’s sister Claire stages a lavish wedding party at a mansion in the mountains, and as the fever dream of the wedding ceremony careens towards disaster, Justine is drawn to an innocuous spot in the sky. That spot is the wayward planet Melancholia, on a collision course with Earth. This epic cinematic masterpiece is reimagined for the stage adaptation of Lars von Trier’s cinematic masterpiece Melancholia by ground-breaking playwright Declan Greene and directed by Matthew Lutton, featuring an extraordinary ensemble of performers. Two powerful women facing off against the apocalypse, this landmark production promises to be scintillating, mesmerising and profoundly devastating. The 2011 movie was billed as a ‘beautiful film about the end of the world’, which starred Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, John Hurt and Keifer Sutherland. It was critically lauded and earned Dunst the Festival’s Best Actress Award for her performance.
