That play you've always wanted to do.
Tue, 29 Sept 2009, 12:05 pmJust looking for people's own choices here: is there a play that you've always wanted to be involved with, but so far haven't done it? Maybe it's just too obscure or unpopular for anyone to put it on, maybe you've auditioned for it in the past but never got in, maybe you just haven't got around to staging it yet.
My pick is Shakespeare's Coriolanus - it's an awesome and, I think, deeply underrated tragedy.
What's your choice?
good evil roles for women
Sun, 25 Oct 2009, 10:59 amIt is heartening to see young local writers seem to be getting this message. In Grant Watson's CRY HAVOC (currently playing at the Blue Room in Northbridge), based on Shakespeare's JULIUS CAESAR, the "lean and hungry" conspirator is congresswoman Cassandra Ford, chillingly portrayed by acclaimed Perth actress Mia Martin.
Mia reports that when she walks into the bar after the play, she gets many a cold glare from the patrons - a response she takes as a compliment - and she is relishing the role of villain rather than victim this time around.
