1 1 y separately published work icon Lamb Jane Bodie , Mark Seymour (composer), 2018 Strawberry Hills : Currency Press , 2018 13965492 2018 single work musical theatre

'From multi-award-winning playwright Jane Bodie, and featuring original songs by Mark Seymour (Mark Seymour and the Undertow, Hunters and Collectors), Lamb is the story of one family on an Australian sheep farm, over generations – the guilt of those who left; the lost desires of those who stayed behind.

“You left a trail of broken bread
Across the old battle ground
Behind the veil of the living and the dead
You wrote your secrets down.”

'Developed through Red Stitch’s INK program, Lamb is a new Australian play full of lyrical longing and humour. It is a story of the land, and of lies told and secrets kept to protect those we love – and to stop them from leaving us.'

1 1 We Built This City Donna Jackson , Mark Seymour (composer), 2006 single work musical theatre 'Construction and building workers' greatest skills and experiences were crafted and choreographed to build a roving rock performance event which celebrated the great strength and skill of builders in Melbourne who daily put their lives on the line and rightly proclaim "We built this city!" "We Built This City" featured a cast of unionists to form an industrial percussion ensemble coordinated by Mark Grunden, a rock band with anthems written and performed by Mark Seymour, the Trades Union Choir and a dance of heavy machinery set to a grunty percussion line-up.'
