GET FLUFFED
Wed, 29 Aug 2001, 12:37 pmOn Saturday the 25th of August, the Scarp Theatre held there one night variety show "Get Fluffed" at The Kalamunda Club.
We had 15 acts, ranging from a young singing/dancing troupe to a professional vaudeville act by Buddy Clarke.
Anthony Harwood opened and closed the show as only Anthony could do. Emma Farrell sang a beautiful folk song about Hermen the Worm, Chris Thomas gave a comical lecture, Anna Tedesco and Scott-Patrick Mitchell performed a self devised piece involving poetry and dance and Janine Bramall, a young country and western singer had us all clappin' and toe tappin'.
A night such as this looks very easy when you're in the audience, but let me tell you..... it is anything but that. I was very lucky to be working with a support team of professionals. None of our acts had seen the Kalamunda Club before, and so walked in cold, hoping that everything would go right. BUT .... because of our techies, we had no problems..... they handled every tape, script and lighting cue I threw at them, usually 30 seconds before each act started.
Thank you to Chris Hewitt & Alan Green. Not only are they good guys, but they get the work done, always have a smile on there dials and usually manage to keep me stress free and happy, .... especially when I shoved a nail through my finger while carrying a flat.
Thank you to Noël Christian who jumped in at the last minute when Jamie Cant couldn't MC the night. He also performed for us!
To those of you who missed the show .... kick yourself, but don't make the same mistake again ..... watch this space, because no doubt we'll be doing another one soon!
Thank you again to everyone involved.
