‘Kaleidoscope’ looks at Bruce Mason
The “Kaleidoscope” programme tomorrow will be about Bruce Mason and his contribution to theatre and the arts in New Zealand. His friends and colleagues — including Richard and Edith Campion, lan Fraser and Don Selwyn — will take part in the programme. The second half of the
programme will be an interview done with Mason by Helen Paske six weeks before his death. The producer, Allison Webber, says the programme deals with Mason’s philosophy and contribution to New Zealand theatre, and is an introduction to three plays which were specially commissioned for television, the first of which will be screened on One on Sunday. Mason, probably best known for his works “End of the Golden Weather” and “The Pohutakawa Tree,” began work on the plays a year before his death. They are “The Garlick Thrust,” “Daphne and Chloe,” and “Do Not Go Gentle.” All three were made in Dunedin.
