Just heard the sad news yesterday that Nick Enright, great contemporary Aussie playwright of 'Black Rock', 'Spurboard', 'Boy From Oz' and numerous musical collaborations with WAAPA's David King, has been diagnosed with cancer. WAAPA has a Nick Enright tribute planned for this year (organised prior to his diagnosis) which, unfortunately, he will no longer be involved with as much as originally anticipated.

Thoughts go out to Mr Enright, his family and friends.

Having worked with this god of theatre I am saddened to hear this news.

He writes really good theatre and is a wonder with theatre students. If "Five Sevens" is ever produced for the real theater I will be forever be grateful.

Nick can't be ill. He must live forever.
