Looking for a theatre director

Evaporating Sun previously put on Patrick Marber’s ‘Closer’ which sold out in its final week and Caryl Churchill’s ‘A Number’ at Forty Five Downstairs which garnered great reviews (**** in the Age). Evaporating Sun are putting on a co-op production of an original play called ‘Equilibrium’ in late April at the Northcote Town hall. The play is a dialogue driven piece about relationships and sexual politics and the themes are loss of innocence, hope and curiosity. An independent dramaturge report about the play notes that: “This is an accomplished, ambitious, and formally inventive piece of playwriting… this is a very effective work that should be realised in a production sooner rather than later”. At this stage we are looking for a director who would be interested in directing this work. Because it is the first time that this play will be performed it is important that the writers intent is the driving force behind the work. If you are interested please send a note about your work and approach to evaporatingsun@gmail.com . If you know of someone that may be interested please let them know about this.

I see some flawed logic

Thank you Craig for your reply, however I see some flawed logic afoot here.You say you found the overall effect appalling, not any single element.however if this is the case then the culprit is a coincidental cumulative effect that turned three(or more]non appalling elements into an appalling one.As this is an accident of coincidence there is no reason it should be apologised for or anyone berated for it.If however the human element is to be blamed then each of the contributors has the right to take equal umbrage at any insults.It is my belief that if you call a small group of people morons, you are referring to each individual in that group. on another point MM openly objects to you apologising on her behalf.In fact you apologised on behalf of the whole of Perth not just MM.As a resident of Perth I too objected to you making an unsolicited apology on my behalf.However as you have retacted the apology I will withdraw my chagrin. Have a good one Don {misspelled and not verified because I forgot to log on]
