Due to the discovery of an unexpected and serious problem with my health which requires fairly urgent surgery, I am forced to change the date of auditions for 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf'. The new date is Sunday 4th July at 2pm, venue remains the same - Playlovers, Hackett Hall, Draper St Floreat. I regret the inconvenience this will cause some people, but I have no alternative. I sincerely hope that everyting now goes as planned and I do not have to change it again!

Finally! We move into Subiaco Arts Centre at 8am tomorrow.
Finally, we get to rehearse on the stage we will be using instead of a tiny little room with not enough room to swing a cat (should anyone want to swing one), and by the end of the day we will have a set, lighting, sound, costumes, and no doubt a completely new set of blocking!

Well, I guess its time I told you all just what is going on with Second Samuel. The answer is....LOTS.
Nat Martin arrived a week ago, and just quietly slipped into place in the cast and in our hearts. I think that we all now feel that we have known him for years, not just days.

Please come and see 'Jigsaws' at Kwinana Theatre Workshop. Yes, I know, you think Kwinana is the end of the of the earth, but its not that far really - 30 minutes from Perth on the Freeway. And I think you'll find the journey well worth while - its a great play, written here in Perth in the late eighties. And I have a great cast:- Sharon Edsall, Sarah Cosstick, Judith Laudehr, Judi St Clair and Elizabeth Connor. They even look like a family! Everyone will recognise at least one member of their own family among the five women on stage. Some of the scenes just about give off sparks - they crackle with so much tension. Some of them even make the cast cry sometimes. Its very funny, sad, and confronting.

Its 42+ degrees, and I have to go to rehearsal this evening. And you know what? I'm looking forward to it. My car is going to be stinking hot because its been sitting in the sun all day, its a 45min drive to Kwinana from here, and I still don't mind.
