Saturday night, small town Wales, one pub, one party and three lads stuck with their school reputations - the gimp, the geek and the bully. Their dream - to get the hell out



Dead White Males: "Triumphant...The neatly lined up ducks of academic absolutism are ruthlessly, and hilariously, assassinated" - Sydney Morning Herald; "Swain is a wonderful creation" - Guardian
The 7 Stages of Grieving: "A subtle and complex invitation to experience something of the depth of Aboriginal grieving" - Melbourne Age.
Hotel Sorrento: "Has a moody, evocative, literary sweep and scope to it" - Sydney Morning Herald
Two: In 1948, in a German town, Anna comes to Rabbi Chaim Levi for Hebrew lessons. As the two study the language, their stories are gradually revealed, raising fundamental moral questions as they try to reconcile their tormented pasts and accept and renew their lives.
The Popular Mechanicals: "One of the most rollickingly entertaining nights in the theatre" (Sydney Morning Herald)

Tony Taylor

Over the past decade or so, Tony Taylor, who is based at Monash University, has worked closely with a wide range of colleagues to improve the standing of history education in Australia.

In 1999 he was appointed Director of the Australian Government's National Inquiry into the Teaching and Learning of History and, from 2001-2007, he was Director of the Australian Government's National Centre for History Education.

In 2003-2005, with the assistance of an Australian Research Council (ARC) grant, he developed national professional standards for the teaching and learning of history.

He researches and publishes extensively in Australia and overseas in the field of history education and since 2003, he has successfully led three large ARC grants in that field and is currently involved as a partner in another ARC history education project.

From 2006 to 2012 he worked with Professor Stuart Macintyre as senior consultant with successive Coalition and ALP federal governments in formulating three drafts of a national history curriculum.
