LIFE will be breathed back into classic Australian writers, Henry Lawson and Banjo Paterson at Trades Hall next month.<\/p>\n

Max Cullen and Warren Fahey OAM are bringing their one-act play, Dead Men Talking<\/em> to Ballarat on Friday 1 and Saturday 2 November, with songs, yarns and plenty of laughs about their lives\u2019 transitions to death.<\/p>\n

Set in the Leviticus Bar and Grill at Heaven\u2019s Gate, the pair embody the two iconic poets as they have a casual and sometimes argumentative drink, chat about their legacies, their \u2018War of Words\u2019 in The Bulletin<\/em>, and broadly reminisce on old times.<\/p>\n

As veteran actors in their seventies, Cullen and Fahey have a mutual passion for bush stories. Inspired by the work of Lawson and Paterson, their theatrical experience was first staged in 2014 and has now been performed over 250 times.<\/p>\n

Fahey is also a historian and author, and said Lawson and Paterson should never be forgotten for their cultural contributions.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the world increasingly succumbs to the never-ending and somewhat inevitable pressure of \u2018one world culture,\u2019 it is vital that small nations like Australia fight back to show their uniqueness,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur national identity was born in the bush and is one of feistiness and determination where pioneers battled with bushfires, floods, droughts, insect plagues, and quite often authority and the banks.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey also fought loneliness and despair, but somehow or other, came out the other side to build this great nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dead Men Talking <\/em>will be performed at 7.30pm, Friday 1 November, and 2pm, Saturday 2 November at Ballarat Trades Hall on Camp Street.<\/p>\n
