ANATOMY
OF A SUICIDE
By Alice Birch | Directed by Catarina Hebbard
18 - 29 May 2021
New Benner Theatre, Metro Arts
DIRECTOR’S NOTES
I first read this script in 2018 as I was travelling across to Adelaide Fringe Festival, and I
could not put it down. I was completely drawn in by Alice’s storytelling, building from one
story to three stories told simultaneously, written like a score, across a page. I read a story
at a time at first and went back to read across the page, such was the complexity of the
dialogue. As I said, I could not put it down.
Birch has created a beautiful tapestry of intergenerational trauma, that showcases the
power of women in all their forms and highlights the monumental effect that our mental
health has on our day to day lives. I started thinking about how it could be done, how
had it been presented in the past? And here began my relationship with this incredible
work. From a directorial point of view the challenge of telling the story of three generations
simultaneously means that you are, in fact, directing three shows in one. NO. MEAN. FEAT.
Alice’s writing has in-built mechanisms that guide the process – helping us navigate with
natural ebbs and flows written into each scene.
I spoke to Rebecca Alexander (my co-artistic director) and once she had read the script, we
both agreed we needed to bring this to Brisbane audiences. In 2019 I gathered a group of
actors together to read the work, and it was at this point I knew we absolutely had to do it.
It all seemed possible and very exciting.
Fast forward to 2021, Metro Arts and the New Benner Theatre. We all know what last
year was like, so, to begin this year by coming together with a cast of 10 performers and
a backstage team of 10 hardworking creatives has been an absolute pleasure. Bringing
this beauty of a beast of a show together certainly hasn’t been easy and at times felt like
an insurmountable challenge. But somehow despite rainstorms, C**** Lockdowns and
negotiating 20 people’s lives and timetables, We. Are. Here.
None of this would have been possible without the tireless work of my co-artistic director
Rebecca Alexander and our co-producers Zoe Houghton (Big Scary Animal) and Elise
Greig e.g., three amazing kick-ass women, all of whom have put their blood, sweat and
tears (both literal and metaphorical) into this production.
Thank you for supporting this work and indie artists in Brisbane, we hope to see you again.

With love,
Catarina

                        Merrin Benson: Company Counsellor When asking to be a support
                        for such a play, it made me reflect on my role of who I am, why is it important,
                        what resonates for me in taking this project on. It’s a simple one, I am a mother,
                        a sister, daughter, partner, friend, support worker and student. In my life I have
                        been directly affected by the perils of mental health personally and with my
                        brothers life being taken too soon by Suicide. It has been a pleasure working as
                        support counsellor for BC Productions qld and the team.
