Production is about to begin on Porchlight Films' 'Fallout' (working title) for the ABC, a six-part drama inspired by the 1950s British nuclear testing that took place in outback South Australia. Written and directed by Peter Duncan (Rake), the project has attracted a strong cast including Ewen Leslie, Jessica de Gouw, James Cromwell, Ningali Lawford Wolf and Shaka Cook.
Indigenous performers Lillian Crombie and the late Ningali Lawford-Wolf have been voted joint recipients of the 10th annual Equity Lifetime Achievement Award.
Renowned Indigenous actor Ningali Lawford-Wolf died last week while touring with the Sydney Theatre Company production in Edinburgh of The Secret River.
