It's Ladies Day at the Broome races and the divinely beautiful Mike is the toast of the track. But amongst the froth and festivity, a brutal act of violence reminds us that life is not just all swishy hemlines, debonair gents and fascinators galore.

Alana Valentine is one of Australia's best playwrights. Known for her incredibly successful verbatim works, she takes her interviews and research with individuals and communities, and mixes them with a healthy dose of drama. The result is powerful, thought-provoking theatre in which the voices of her protagonists ring absolutely true.

Alana spent months interviewing the gay community of Broome to create a play that asks questions about tolerance, isolation, love, hope and the right to have your story told.

Valentine, Alana: - ALANA VALENTINE's Barbara and the Camp Dogs, co-written with Ursula Yovich, was nominated in the 2017 Sydney Theatre Awards for Best New Australian Work and Best Original Score. Ladies Day was nominated for the Nick Enright Prize for Drama (NSW Premier's Literary Awards, 2017). Valentine is the recipient of two Tasmanian Theatre Awards (2017) for The Tree Widows, and was also nominated for an Errol for Best Director. Valentine has worked with Bangarra Dance Theatre as dramaturg on Dark Emu, after successful collaborations on Bennelong, Patyegarang and ID. In 2017 Venus Theatre Company (USA) world premiered The Ravens, which also won the BBC International Radio writing Award in 2013, and the National Library of Australia published Dear Lindy. Other works include The Sugar House, Ear to the Edge of Time, Letters to Lindy, and a jazz song cycle Flight Memory. Valentine is the co-recipient of a writing fellowship at the Charles Perkins Centre, University of Sydney. www.alanavalentine.com
