Robyn Payne
in discussion with Sarah Gaitanos, Nola's biographer.
‘The Imaginative Handshake’ – described by biographer Richard Holmes as 'The power to transport the reader to another time, another place, and another identity with absolute conviction; and then make them come away with the sensation “I really met that person — and I know how they felt about the world — and it was worth it.’
Nola Millar was a pivotal person in New Zealand theatre history and you will leave this discussion feeling the same about her and her world.
Suggested further reading Gaitanos, Sarah, 'Nola Millar: A Theatrical Life', VUP, 2007.
The session will conclude with a Q & A.
... one of the most important figures in the history of New Zealand theatre
