Nudie Rudie

by Cellobella on Friday, January 21, 2011

I am doing a storytelling course (Barefaced Stories) at The Blue Room Theatre with Margot Leitman (check out one of her stories on The Moth). Eight sessions and at the end we will have a polished story. Each session we have homework. The first assignment – “do something outside your comfort zone”. This required some [...]

by Cellobella on Monday, December 6, 2010

As you know Groover has been in a play recently called The Beat Goes On by A Lad In Sane productions. Well, I have a tiny bit of the show so you can see him in action. Actually you see more of his co-star… My only excuse is that I got too involved in the [...]

A shameless plug for a nasty character

Groover is in another play – The Beat Goes On – which opens this THURSDAY at Camelot Theatre in Mosman Park. The play is really three one-act plays all, as you might imagine from the title, about police work in the home country. Groover is in the third of these plays, directed by Sinead Bevan [...]

Two days in Sydney

by Cellobella on Thursday, August 26, 2010 · 1 comment

Following my last post, after two days in Sydney I can no longer fit into my daughter’s size 5 jeans (size 5 is about a 9 in real language). A pork roll from James’s favourite cheap lunch spot. Lasagne! At least I have avoided all the yummy pastries from the (count them) five gorgeous bakeries [...]
