Based on the legend of the bushranger Ned Kelly, the work was Borovansky's third ballet with an Australian theme, following on from his <em>Terra Australis</em> of 1946 and <em>The Black Swan</em> of 1949. It was part of the company's jubilee season and programs refer to the company as the Borovansky Jubilee Ballet. The cast was led by Paul Grinwis as Ned, Kathleen Gorham as Ned's girlfriend Miss X, Miro Zloch as Joe, Charles Boyd as Don, Dorothy Stevenson as the Hotel Proprietess and Paul Hammond as the Policeman.</p><p>The libretto for <em>The Outlaw</em> was written by Borovansky and in program notes he explained: 'Its aim is simply to present something of the essence of [Ned Kelly's] life and career, based on the spectacular scenes when he eventually came to disaster at Glenrowan'. The ballet had a prologue, which was written by Clive Turnbull and spoken by John Auld.</p> <p> <strong>See also: </strong> <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/1721.html">Black Swan, The</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/15.html">Borovansky Ballet</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/16.html">Borovansky, Edouard</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/184.html">Boyd, Charles</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/3681.html">Constable, William (Bill)</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/141.html">Gorham, Kathleen</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/502.html">Grinwis, Paul</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/92.html">Hammond, Paul</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/1301.html">Stevenson, Dorothy</a> ; <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/subjects/142.html">Terra Australis</a> <br><br> <a class="second" href="#top"><img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/top-arrow.gif" border="0" alt="Return to top of page"></img></a> </p> <hr size="1"> <a name="materials"></a> <h3>Research Materials </h3> <p align="left"> <a class="second" href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/apps/ad?action=ViewSubject&id=2861&resourceType=Picture#materials">Picture</a> </p> <hr size="1"> <h3 class="clear"><a name="other"></a>Other resources</h3> <p>Find more about Outlaw, The in:</p> <ul> <li> Internet - <a class="second" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080722071631/http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&q=dance+Outlaw++The&btnG=Google+Search" target="_blank">Google</a> </li> <li> Articles - <a class="second" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080722071631/http://catnyp.nypl.org/search/?searchtype=X&SORT=R&searchscope=4&searcharg=Outlaw++The" target="_blank">New York Public Library Dance Collection</a> </li> <li> Pictures - <a class="second" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080722071631/http://www.pictureaustralia.org/apps/pictureaustralia?action=PASearch&mode=search&attribute1=title,creator,subject,date+or+place&term1=Outlaw++The" target="_blank">Picture Australia</a> </li> </ul> <p> </p> </div> <p class="phpfooter"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/about.html" class="header">About</a> | <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/contact.html" class="header">Contact us</a> | <a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/help/" class="header">Help</a></p> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td class="footer"><img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/spacer.gif" alt=" " width="10" height="55" class="logo"> <img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/dot-gold.gif" alt=" " width="12" height="12"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/" class="yellow">Home</a> <img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/dot-gold.gif" alt=" " width="12" height="12"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/people.html" class="yellow">People</a> <img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/dot-gold.gif" alt=" " width="12" height="12"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/companies.html" class="yellow">Companies</a> <img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/dot-gold.gif" alt=" " width="12" height="12"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/performances.html" class="yellow">Performances</a> <img src="/web/20080722071631im_/http://australiadancing.org/images/dot-gold.gif" alt=" " width="12" height="12"><a href="/web/20080722071631/http://australiadancing.org/apps/ad?action=PublicSearch" class="yellow">Search</a> </td> </tr> </table>  <script src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080722071631js_/http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> _uacct = "UA-807909-3"; urchinTracker(); </script> </body> </html>
