Reflections

Presented by Riverside Theatres in association with Sydney Festival

Nine days of screen treasures that reflect the exceptional, the eccentric and the transcendent in the performing and screen arts.

Reflections commences with London's National Theatre's stage production of The Collaborators centring on an imaginary encounter between Joseph Stalin and the playwright Mikhail Bulgakov, and concludes with a dance program including the Bolshoi's perennial favourite The Nutcracker.

Stephen Fry explores his passion for controversial composer Richard Wagner in Wagner and Me, and the complex world of the enigmatic musical poet and world renowned pianist is revealed in Genius Within - The Inner Life of Glenn Gould.

Reflections also pays tribute to two iconic filmmakers with two Roman Polanski classics and a retrospective selection of masterpieces of Australia's greatest auteur, Paul Cox.
