"Atomic Oz" Explosion in Perth

A local group of young community-based performers are taking the musical Atomic Oz on a three-month national tour. The opening performance of the tour will be exploding in Perth on Saturday 25th August at 2pm at the Perth Cultural Centre (outside PICA). The satirical show is an expose of Australia’s involvement in the global nuclear industry from the British nuclear tests in 1949 to the present Star performers in the show include Future Generations Dude (aka Ben Coyne) and the infamous Radioactive Man (aka Olly Watkins).

The inspiring group leaves Perth on the 2nd of September and will be performing in the lead up to this years federal election. The tour will visit Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Canberra appearing at festivals, university and school campuses, and prominent public places. The troupe will also tour the amazing documentary “Fight for Country” (Rockhopper Productions) – the story of Jabiluka, which has recently had its worldwide premiere.

Paul Hood, of Shenton Park, tour co-organiser and performer, said “The government supports the genocidal nuclear industry in Australia, so it is up to our community to stop this madness. Nuclear issues have not been prominent despite strong community opposition to uranium mining and nuclear waste dumps. In fact, the politicians are ignoring popular opinion, pushing ahead with more mines, maintaining our heavy involvement in the US National Missile Defence System and recently commissioning a new nuclear reactor.”

He continued: “Only participatory democracy will end the political hypocrisy and this play will inspire and ignite community action, making the nuclear issue prominent in electorates across the country”

This massive organisational task has been undertaken on a short timeframe and has only been made possible with amazing contacts across the country that we have made from cross continental journeys with Cycling For Sustainability and to the Global Greens, Students for Sustainability and Independent Media conferences.

Community members nationwide have sponsored this project, and the troupe has put on fundraiser gigs and film nights. Shares in a nuclear free future are also available for purchase ($10 with amazing guaranteed returns!) to help fund the tour.

Updates from each performance location will be available during the tour on the web at: www.votenuclearfree.org/atomicoz/
