Val Atkinson

May 09, 2024

Valdemar Atkinson (1 May 1894 – 8 February 1982), invariably referred to as "Val", was an Australian theatrical producer. The youngest son of a prosperous farmer, he did much to foster amateur theatricals in Sydney and regional New South Wales. He was closely associated with J. C. Williamson's[1] and toured amateur or semi-professional companies through regional Victoria and New South Wales, also to New Zealand.[2] He became a producer of stage shows for the Mudgee Musical Society in the early 1920s, and developed a reputation for nurturing talent and producing successful shows, both financially and artistically. He also had some successes as a comic actor and recitalist.

History edit

Atkinson was the third son of Louisa J. Atkinson, née O'Neil, and grazier James Roland Atkinson (1861 – c. 16 March 1945) of Galambine and Cullenbone, near Mudgee, New South Wales, later "The Braes", Manilla, New South Wales, then "Manaroo", near Cooma, from 1936.[3] The land at Galambine was settled by J. R. Atkinson's father, James Atkinson,[4] around 1850.[5] J. R. Atkinson was a leading citizen of the area, a prominent member of the Pastoral Protection Board, racing club and local government as well as a successful sheep grazier, wheatgrower and horse breeder. Louisa was a daughter of the Mudgee postmaster,[6] William D. O'Neil, who in 1888 married a sister of J. R. Atkinson.[7]

Atkinson attended Mudgee Grammar School, but unlike his brothers Eric and Geoffrey, did not distinguish himself in the classroom or sports field, but rated a mention for reciting selections from Ivry, one of Macaulay's Lays of Ancient Rome, at the 1907 prizegiving.[8] F. T. Miller, the proprietor and headmaster, died of influenza the following January[8] and the school was taken over briefly by J. Wheatcroft, then closed.

He was a member of the Army Cadets in 1911 when he was chosen as a representative of Mudgee to the Coronation of George V.[9]

Atkinson described himself as a farmer when he enlisted with the First AIF in July 1915[10] and was sent overseas as a private, was wounded twice, promoted to corporal, and returned in 1919 to Australia,[11] where he was awarded the Military Medal.[12] His brothers Eric and Geoffrey Neil Atkinson also volunteered. He became an agent for the Citizens and Graziers Life Assurance Company,[13] and set up an office for the company in Mudgee.

By 1926 he was living at Queen Street, Melbourne.[14] and was founding director of the Melbourne School of Opera and Musical Comedy, with Judy Littleton, ballet-mistress, in October 1926[15] but ceased advertising that December.

He was producer for some Gilbert and Sullivan opera in Auckland, New Zealand before Florence Sutherland left for Australia.[16]

He helped found a musical comedy company in Geelong in 1929.[17]

As actor edit

Atkinson played in

Later years edit

Atkinson was associated with the Theatrical Sub-branch of the RSSILA, and its president in 1939.[39]

He organised a talent quest at Broken Hill[40] which generated little interest. He had previously been mentioned as likely to settle in the town, but that and a planned second talent quest never eventuated and he returned to Sydney.

In 1946 he organised a gala concert at Bondi Beach, which was a financial failure through spectators seating themselves outside the roped-off area and declining to contribute,[41] and he retired from public life.

In 1949 Atkinson married Clare Jean Maunder (1911–1993). They lived in Tamworth where he died on 8 February 1982 and was buried in the local cemetery.[42]
