Review by arts editor Sarah McNeill
Operation Boomerang
Yirra Yaakin Theatre
Subiaco Arts Centre
Closes October 19

In between the family jokes, jibes, squabbles and old familial irritants, there is a serious and poignant element to writer Bruce Denny’s new comedy, Operation Boomerang.
Nana (Dr Lynette Narkle) is determined to leave the aged care facility she’s in to return home to Country. That’s where she wants to die, surrounded by her mob, not stuck in a sterile, unfamiliar, suburban facility.
It is a common argument these days as our aging population lives longer but often where quality of life has diminished, or, as in the case of my own healthy, independent 96-year-old mother, some have simply had enough.
It is a difficult and provocative argument that pitches cultural and personal spiritual needs against society’s expectations and long-held Christian beliefs.
Inspired by his own experiences of family members being in aged care, Bruce has successfully turned a provocative subject into a raucous family comedy, strongly led by the whip-smart and wryly funny matriarch Lynette Narkle.
Nana’s grandchildren Sarah and Josh, played by warm and engaging Ebony McGuire and delightfully comic Owen Hasluck, are a little thrilled at the escape plan to secret their grandma out of the home, even while they are concerned about how she plans to execute her final days.
But with the unexpected arrival of Nana’s children, bossy, severe and emphatic Jean (Bobbi Henry) and gentle, open-minded Bob (Wimya Woodley), the arguments for and against this boomerang back to Country are well played out.
Multi-talented artist Ian (Moopa) Wilkes still has a bit to learn as a director as the tight-knit family are forced into too-tight and uncomfortable positions on stage, and he allows people to talk over each other, often squashing crucial laugh lines or losing salient points.
But there is no doubt that this is an important new work that gives people the chance to discuss rights, power and the wish to return to Country – wherever that is and whatever it means to individuals.
