I 1992, Collingwood had to battle against the most overwhelming odds, but throughout the trials and tribulations, the Magpies stood tall. Before the season began, we lost Darren Millane in a tragic car accident. Doug Barwick, Premiership player in 1990, was ruled out of action when he shattered a knee, then midway through the season, Craig Kelly also injured his knee. Through sheer guts and determination, Collingwood repeatedly shut down opposition big guns, reduced games to tight contests and greeted the final siren triumphant. In the end the well of good fortune would dry up, but not before another stirring fightback. When the book is written about '92, Collingwood will be remembered for two things - its competitiveness and its heart.

Set in a liminal desert space, The Road (Ճանապարհ) contemplates how it feels to be in the world at this moment through overlapping narratives of isolation and connection. The stories of five sets of characters, suspended in time and space, unfold and collide on the very same road, set against a soundtrack by the Armenian-Australian jazz band, Zela Margossian Quintet. “Each of the five narratives in our work are centred around decisive moments in people’s lives; from this point forward these characters will be forever changed as they undergo some sort of renewal, redemption or transcendence,” says director Charlotte Mungomery. “We were also interested in the conceptual and almost existential notion of a road and humanity’s attempt to control the uncontrollable and tame the untameable.”
