Renowned Indigenous actor Ningali Lawford-Wolf died last week while touring with the Sydney Theatre Company production in Edinburgh of The Secret River.
Mad Kids co-founder and managing director Lauren Elliott is launching a new production company focused on long-form television and features, Galactic Baby.
Set in Perth’s notorious KGB (Koondoola, Girrawheen, Balga), the series follows two rookie detectives, tough guy Jack and gentle giant Nigel, as they deal with the chaos of their new jobs, no-nonsense boss, work rivals, drug dealers and suspects who consistently turn out to be family. Despite battling their own insecurities at every turn, and the fact that Jack bullied Nigel in high school, these two might just turn out to be KGB’s finest detectives.
The ABC has green lit comedy web series 'KGB', from brothers Luke and Dan Riches - a project borne out of Screenwest’s Indigenous online initiative, Originate.
