Hijacker

Back in 1990, I studied Aboriginal Literature with Cliff Watego, at the University of Queensland in Brisbane. We were allowed to choose our own assessment, so our class decided to do a play.
Cliff had a bunch of unpublished plays and filmscripts, as well as the couple of dozen published plays printed at that time.
Our class chose'Hijacker' as it's cast were a few Indigenous, and the rest non-indigenous, reflecting the make-up of our class. We didn't want to cross cast.
We performed 'Hijacker' by Eric Wilmot and Richard Guthrie, at the Cement box theatre, with Aaron Ross playing the lead role. I designed the poster for the show, and screen-printed it at UQ Activities.
The next year, 1991, we were asked to produce the show again, for NAIDOC week. Aaron Ross directed the show in 91, and I played a role, and designed the poster again.
This year, the Avalon Theatre at UQ will re-open, and the poster for Hijacker will feature as a permanent exhibition in the foyer.
A copy of this poster also resides in the Queensland Art Gallery, so it is my most famous and best known art-work.
If I could work out how to post a photo, I would include one here.
'Hijacker' was the first Aboriginal written, Aboriginal acted show produced by the University of Queensland.
