the role of "Chuck" their drummer; while Sejavka appears briefly in a party scene, addressed by Hutchence as "Michael". Writing and acting Since the 1990s, Sejavka concentrated on his work as an actor, writer and playwright. In 1995 his play, All Flesh is Glass, took him to New York as part of an exchange programme organised by New Dramatists and the Australian National Playwright's Centre. Sejavka appeared in stage productions including: The Death of Peter Pan, Quintessence and Shipwreck!, all directed by Robert Chuter and produced at La Mama Theatre, Carlton. In the 2010s he documented local life in Mt Waverley via his blog. Sejavka has published many short prose works. His screenplay for the hour-length film, Earthbound, was the first film script to be short-listed for the Louis Esson Drama prize. Sometimes he works as a theatre director. His play, Mysterium, commissioned by Kickhouse theatre, won the 1999 Wal Cherry Award. In mid-2000 he played Oscar Wilde in Barry Dickins' play, Believe me Oscar Wilde at La Mama directed by Lynne Ellis. His other productions include The Lord of Misrule and Sruti Smriti. He adapted Jacob Rosenberg's long-form poem, Shylock, for the stage. This work centred around an adaptation of Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice set in a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Poland. He later worked on Ambergris – set on an island off the coast of Queensland, dealing with beauty and greed, and As Above So Below – a play about the occult practices of the poet, W. B. Yeats. He is a parent and collected 19th-century horror and fantasy novels.
