A few months ago I was lucky enough to work at the Globe Theatre in London. The Globe is a replica of the theatre Shakespeare worked in when he was working in London during the early 1600’s. The Globe is made largely of wood and is open to the elements, it has the only a thatched roof allowed in London.
Melbourne French Theatre are about to launch their latest show Le Père Noël est une Ordure at the Library at the Dock in the Docklands in Melbourne, Victoria Australia. Amongst the cast is an eclectic group of people who have come together to present this play in French with English Surtitles. TheatreArtLife asked a few questions to Guillaume Sabouraud who plays Katia, the transvestite and Richard Ryan who plays Preskovich.
As a stage manager, Spring can be a stressful time as the offers for the upcoming season start to roll in. At least, it is for me now. I should qualify this statement by saying that in the not-so-distant past, finding work at all was a bit of a struggle. This made decision-making pretty simple- I’d gladly jump on literally any offer that came my way. With a few years of experience under my belt now though, I’m coming into a place where I have to make some strategic decisions when I have multiple offers on the table. When it rains, it pours, as the saying goes, so inevitably they will all conflict and overlap in the most inconvenient ways. How do you choose?
