From the organizers: Famed Ozploitation auteur Brian Trenchard-Smith follows up his kung-POW classic THE MAN FROM HONG KONG with this fast and furious thrill ride! Bursting with non-stop action and death-defying stunt work, DEATHCHEATERS tells the tale of two adrenaline junkie stunties (John Hargreaves and Grant Page) who accept a suicide mission to infiltrate and destroy the seemingly impenetrable fortress of a notorious racketeer. Shot by Oscar winning cinematographer John Seale (MAD MAX: FURY ROAD), the film firmly established Grant Page as Australia’s leading stunt icon. He would next star in STUNT ROCK and co-ordinate the jaw-dropping action of MAD MAX. Newly scanned in 4K from the original vault materials, we proudly presents all the crashes and bashes of the ‘Cunning Stunts’ team in high definition. Related links: Film Geeks SD on Facebook

ARTISTS: Steve Hackman, conductor/creator San Diego Symphony Orchestra About the concert: Tchaikovsky X. Drake is a symphonic synthesis that blends the music of two composer-romanticists separated by almost a century. Twenty-two songs of Drake are woven into Piotr Tchaikovsky’s epic Fifth Symphony, as the lyrics of the former serve to advance the narrative program of the latter. We hear Drake’s melodies soaring in tandem with Tchaikovsky’s; his raps motoring almost impossibly with Tchaikovsky’s rhythmic figures; then vignettes of Drake’s music with Tchaikovsky’s motives and melodies superimposed over the top. Every possibility of synthesis is joyfully and beautifully explored. Joining the full symphony orchestra are three singers, one rapper, a drummer and a bassist; the piece truly alternates between a romantic orchestral sound and a contemporary hip-hop/classical fusion. Conductor/creator Steve Hackman also plays piano for several interludes and songs. Related links: The Shell on Instagram | Facebook
