Description Melbourne writers Matt Cameron (Whispering Death), Aidan Fennessy (The Slaughterhouse), Joanna Murray-Smith (Untitled), Tee O'Neill (Homage to Rembrandt), Melissa Reeves (Ray's Painting), Glenn Shea (Masterpiece) and Tom Wright (At Last the Famous Artist is Dead) have each written a short play in response to the same painting: Homage to Rembrandt by Australian artist Garry Shead. The set design recreates the environment of the painting and during the play the characters mirror the composition of the artwork.
