Tonight's hosts were Luke Whitby and Fiona Jordan.
Another show with lots of Melbourne Fringe attractions, with an emphasis on the performing arts. And more from beyond Fringe!
Melanie Beddie is the Director and Andrea Swifte is one of the actors taking part in Tuesday's The Laramie Project Ten Years On from the Red Stitch Theatre Company at BMW Edge Federation Square. It's part of a joint project with theatre companies in different countries, with the home company being the host for the return to the town where Mathew Shephard was brutally tortured and killed in a homophobic attack.
Mikelangelo--everybody's favourite "Nightingale of the Adriatic" is performing this week at the Butterfly Club South Melbourne. Ralph Mclean caught up with him to find out more about his Balkan origins and his plans for his show. We also got a full hearing/viewing of his song "The Biaklovo Cowboy".
Lloyd Jones has been a regular participant of the La Mama Explorations Season. Beginning just ten years ago, it has become eight weeks of three nights and you've missed it opportunities to see theatre in the making. This means the bad and the ugly as well as the good, and Ralph sought Lloyd's advice on how to tell which was which.
Anna McKenzie is a New Zealand author, most recently of her young-adult novel "The Sea-Wreck Stranger". Misha Adair caught up with Anna on her most recent visit to find out the young, the old and the not so restful involved in her latest book and in writing for young people.
Sam Strong is the Director, David Whiteley and Sarah Sutherland the actors and Faces in the Crowd is the play. This production by Red Stitch promises relationship acrimony, English accents and locations and intense personal drama. We caught up with Sam, David and Sarah before opening night.
Our picks this week were Cemetery Man the zombie film with Three Reviewers, the Fringe Naked Brunch courtesy of the willing to strip off for art Will Morgan and some of the performance picks of the Melbourne Fringe.
