“There’s an intelligence to pop culture and pop music that a lot of people don’t credit. That was the first time I’d seen those genres and styles on a stage: the vaudeville, Marlene Dietrich, Carmen Miranda.”

The @MalthouseMelb’s staging of Christos Tsiolkas’ Loaded embodies a second-generation identity crisis, writes @qianjinghua.

Since Christos Tsiolkas’ Loaded was published in 1995, the way Australians see race and sexuality has changed.

Pls everyone see Loaded @MalthouseMelb. Took dad along, he doesn’t really like plays + thought we were seeing Judith Lucy for some reason? But came out raving. “It was interesting to learn about a lifestyle so foreign to me.” And that’s how I learnt my dad’s not a young gay man.
Loaded is a stunning work in its own right. It can’t match the reckless velocity & momentum of Head On, but it has a luscious sensuality & easy physical immediacy that neither the original prose nor Kokkinos’s movie can offer @MalthouseMelb My review [$] https://t.co/6AiCfFuKEn
The journey of Christos Tsiolkas' Loaded continues on the theatre stage. In this stories of M piece, Loaded author and co-adaptor Christos Tsiolkas talks to Besen Family Artist, Kitan Petkovski about Ari, and speaking his truth.

'It may be easy to forget, but 1995 is as far away from us in time as 1967 was from Loaded’s publication.'
