The Great Unwashed
Wed, 10 Apr 2002, 09:48 pmWhen Cav Gallagher writes or presents a play, you know that you are in for a good comedy with an original theme and plenty of new ideas - The Great Unwashed was certainly that!
The story is of the revenge by a group of 'Trekkie-types' led by Myra (Michelle Baginski - who just seems to get better with every play that she is in, a great talent) on the popular TV host Fenny (Angelique Malcolm - what a fabulous sense of humour).
Myra is aided by Roy (Jez Obern) who hasn't two brain cells to rub together and Jane (Olivia Hogan) the sane one - even though she wears weird make-up, beautifully done by David Hogan.
The three girls acting was superb, just the right amount of comic presentation without being over the top. Jez got the most out of his part, raising many laughs, yet if there was a weakness in the play it was possibly the script for his part. Having said that, the play was VERY well received by the audience, with many loud bursts of laughter. Opening nights an be a little difficult, but this will refine very quickly.
This play is worth seeing.
Welcome to the Blue Room staff Christina Critch, but don't give up your acting.

Well, well, well Mr Digby. Aren't you the moron that lives in a glass house. Could it be the fact that you were dark on a play that holds up a reflective surface to the geek lifestyle you obviously live your life by. I am referring to your various "comments" on this production and your subsequent argument of it's various facets. First of all, you and your "friends" (and I'm sure I use that term in it's broadest possible sense) plainly did not like the play as it made mockery and fun of the sci-fi genre which you obviously live your lives by. My evidence of this is your signing off in a later email with "Live long and prosper". Quite frankly it's obvious you need to get a life or at least stay inside where you are no harm to others or yourself.
The main point I would like to make however is that of your mockery of Olivia Hogan or "hammy-smurf" as you and your "witty" kin have named her. If I'm not mistaken the show is a spoof and therefore I would have thought "hamming" to be the order of the day. If you had seen Miss Hogan in anything else i'm sure you would realise as most others have that she is simply one of THE most talented female actors around.
I really have nothing more to say other than: this is the first time I have posted anything on the site and I only saw fit to do so this time to hopefully stop your meandering fingers ever touching a keyboard again.
Thank you and Hi to everyone in Perth! Miss you all!
