Getting my act together

After the whirldwind that was festival time I have been laying pretty low. It has been a time to reflect, pick up all the loose ends and dream of the exciting next steps. 

What I've been up to...
I did a fun audition with Chameleon Casting and met the ever lovely Daniella who really inspired me, so called my lovely photographer friend Sarah Collins (a.k.a the actor's photographer) and got some new head shots, here are a few of my favs...




I finished my 'pitch pack' for 'How to be a Lady' and sent off my application for the Woodford Folk Festival. This short sharp and shiny pack includes all the details on 'Lady'; images, reviews, tech specs, and synopsis. I will be sending this out to all the promoters who came and saw the show while it was touring for possible future bookings. I plan to take the show to Avignon Festival (South of France) as well as Edinburgh Fringe in 2011, as well as a national tour maybe late this year of early next.

Uploaded some excerpts from 'Ladies' Adelaide Fringe Festival Season onto my youtube channel

What's Next?....
I am busy busy busy at present Producing the Sci-Fi Comedy Television Pilot 'Rented Space' directed by Kai Smythe, I will also be acting in two of the roles. We did our pitch to potential crew last week and have assembled an army to pull this baby off. I'll post some piccies on this one shortly...

Received the very exciting news that 'The Omega Quest' a new Sci-Fi Adventure Romance in the style of Japanese BUNRAKU theatre that is the brain child of Tim Mager (of Minstrels/Atlantis fame) has been accepted into the North Melbourne Town Hall for the 2010 Melbourne Fringe Festival. This is going to one epic show, check out some Bunraku vids on youtube for a taste of what to expect....

And what's next for me creatively?? There a number of new show concepts knocking around in my brain-space, I am enjoying just allowing these to bubble away for the time being, seeking out inspiring experiences to boost the creativity and trying out some stuff. 

I have committed to myself that I will bring a new show to the Adelaide Fringe Festival and Melbourne International Comedy Festival for 2011 so stay tuned.....
