Hole In The Wall
Mon, 16 Nov 2009, 10:24 pmI was having a conversation at work today about the Hole In The Wall, and it's location. From 1984 it was housed in the Subiaco Theatre Centre. Is this the current Subi Arts Centre?
What became of the company?
Where was it before '84?
I have a vague memory of a high school trip to the city (I lived in Karratha) in '81 or '82, and seeing a show(Shirley Valentine, or maybe Educating Rita) at The Hole in the Wall, but I remember it being in Rockeby Rd, or somewhere similar surrounded by shopfronts.
It could be the hazy high school memories of nearly 30 years ago - can it be that long ago????
I know many of you will know the answers.
My memory is too fuzzy

It has become one of those venues that has slipped into an alternative geography - I remember it well but couldn't take you there. The real Perth - perhaps the real Earth - is the one that we dream.
I remember Frank Johnson nude in Upside Down at the Bottom of the World, but not being a schoolkid at the time I cannot say whether or not it was confronting. I remember the verve of the performances, however. It was one of those shows that sticks, no matter how fuddled the mind.
