YOU SAW IT FIRST ON THE WEB!
No not the Olympics although it feels like it after a very long day.
A fantastic day of sheer talent and enjoyment - theatre is quite safe if the level of talent and enjoyment in today's YouthFest is any guide.

RE: YouthFest Apologies

First - My humble apologies to you Grant for not mentioning the web page in the Youth Festival program. I have no excuse and will correct it in the Adult program.
Second - Jarrod, I wasn,t "sampling Kalgoorlie's finest brothels" I was conducting research into the background for the first play at Garrick next year - "Starting Stalls". How can you put on a play about the Kalgoorlie brothels without at least looking at them, and I can assure you that is all that I did!!!!!
