As a part of Mental As, and a fitting cap-off to a particularly inspiring week of public broadcasting, the ABC will be screening Susan Thomsons feature-length documentary Tempest at the Drop-In. The film follows mentally ill and socially isolated members of the St Kilda community as they stage a professional production of Shakespeares The Tempest alongside professional actors. Its an empowering use of the theatre by all accounts, one that does not only humanise the disenfranchised, but demystifies one the most heavily stigmatised (yet commonly experienced) social issues. If youre not doing anything at 10:15 on Sunday evening, wrap yourself up in a doona and attempt to make kettle-korn like I will be. Sensational initiatives are best doused in caramel and cotton, or something.
