EMERALD CITY
Thu, 5 Apr 2001, 11:40 amThis is a play currently playing at the Roy Edinger Centre in Melville. I went and saw it on the second night, and was met with some rather dodgy tasting sherry!.
However, the play was not dodgy at all.
It is an Australian play set in Melbourne/Sydney and stars 2 fantastic actor's in the lead roles, one being Jarrod Buttery as "Colin", a frustrated writer torn between his dreams of greater things and his ethical beliefs, and his wife, who I cant remember the name of (sorry, i haven't got the program on me) but she is played by a fabulously talented actress who's character is also fabulous.
The play started off a bit slowly, but it didn't take too long before i was hooked. It is a well written play and humourous throughout.
It is still running but i don't think for long, so, for a good night out, check out the timetable under "what's in" on this site and go see it.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the kind words (your cheque is in the mail). The "fabulously talented actress" as you so accurately described her, is Fiona Blakeley in the role of Kate, and she deserves every accolade she receives. (Heck, she deserves a Nobel Prize for going on stage opposite me...)
You are correct when you state that the play is still running: Tonight, Friday and Saturday only.
Thanks again,
JB
