The Quiet Season

The Quiet Season is a 1965 Australian television short. It aired on the Australian Broadcasting Commission and was produced in the studios of their Brisbane station (ABQ).

It was produced by John Croyston and written by Melbourne writer John Cameron. The outdoor scenes were filmed at Woody Point.[1]

Air dates varied including 28 June in Canberra and 29 June in Melbourne.

Cast included Nonie Stewart, John Nash, Reg Cameron, Betty Ross, Elaine Cusick, Donald McTaggart, and Vic Hughes.

The Sydney Morning Herald noted it was the fourth television play to be produced by ABC's Brisbane station, and compared it highly unfavourably with the "slick, high professional and sometimes world-class productions" being produced in Sydney at the time.[2]

The National Archives of Australia hold a film copy of this TV short under the title Quiet Season (without the "the"), with 7 May 1965 given as the date, and a running time of 28:46, and notes it has been digitised.[3]
