In this Vale episode of the STAGES podcast, we replay a conversation with actor Nicholas Eadie (1958 - 22nd January 2025).
When STAGES spoke with Nick in 202, he was enjoying a stint as an Uber driver - a sobering reminder of just how precarious the life of an actor can be - even one of our finest.
Nick’s resume boasts an impressive list of high-profile television production that we affectionately embrace as key moments in Australian television consumption.
He gained success and fame in Australian television series’ such as Cop Shop, The Henderson Kids, A Country Practice and Medivac.
He won the Australian Film Institute's Best Actor in Mini-Series award in 1987 for Vietnam, in which he co-starred with Nicole Kidman. He played a rich would-be suitor in The Man from Snowy River II and was nominated again for his portrayal of World War II Academy Award-winning cameraman Damien Parer in John Duigan's Fragments of War, and in 2002 for Halifax f.p.
His father was Australian Broadcasting Commission radio announcer Mervyn Eadie, and Nick was a graduate of the National Institute of Dramatic Art.
Nick worked with all the major Australian theatre companies and had over 45 credits to his name. He has appeared in leading roles in plays as diverse as Tennessee Williams: The Glass Menagerie as The Gentleman Caller in a highly acclaimed performance, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof as Brick. He played John Proctor in three separate productions of The Crucible.
In Sydney's Botanical Gardens, he performed for three seasons as Oberon in A Midsummer Night's Dream. He played Sam in the original cast of Mamma Mia! in Australia for two years. He has been in the world premiere productions of Michael Gow's Furious, Hannie Raison's Two Brothers, Tommy Murphy's Holding the Man and the highly acclaimed Myth, Propaganda and Disaster in Nazi Germany and Contemporary America by Stephen Sewell.
It was a career of many triumphs but was without its challenge and incident. Nick talked candidly about the work he navigated and reflected on a career that both rewarded and disappointed.
