Epilogue
Ric Birch started his career by studying for a law degree at
Melbourne University. After three years he had made his reputation
as a student theatrical producer and director but left little
impression on the legal fraternity apart from producing the Law
Revue. His first job was with ABC television where he produced and
directed many award-winning variety programs.
In 1981, Ric was asked to produce and direct the Opening and
Closing Ceremonies of the XII Commonwealth Games held in Brisbane.
Following the success of that, Ric has also produced and directed
major spectaculars around the world such as the Opening and Closing
Ceremonies of the Los Angeles Olympic Games, the Singapore Jubilee
Spectacular for the Singapore Government, the Opening and Closing
Ceremonies for the Barcelona Olympic Games and the Ceremonies for
the Sydney Olympics in 2000, among many other events.
Ric is currently working on the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of
the Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy.
