Episode 2

Well, we have finished the blocking of the Darwin 1970's disco extravaganza and have moved onto the finale - all Buzby Berkely style. Joanna Noonan, choreographer, tried all number of glamorous traveling patterns (Kathryn Lawrence should have been dancing in the 1920's - she just took to the style immediately). Next week we will try to space the work in an outdoor area. Our studio is only 6 metres by 10 metres and the performance space is 14 metres square, and we are all crammed up against the mirrors trying to get some perspective on it.

Last night Poppy Kathopoulis and Yoris Wilson joined the cast for their first rehearsals. Poppy has performed in Mr Big, and Struck for Tracks. Yoris has starred in Bowls Club Wedding (1 & 2), Snakes Gods and Deities, You Dance Funny, and last year in The Cook The Queen and the Kelly. More news on the rest of the cast next entry.

Production Manager, Kelly Blumberg, has been busy shopping with Tim Newth, (Co-Director) and have stocked up on many of the props. SO rehearsals are going to be a whole lot more fun soon.
