The Blue Room Theatre Seasons

The Blue Room Theatre presents 16 Season productions annually, through a year round program, with applications called for twice a year. The Blue Room Theatre Seasons produce new work, discover and nurture new talent, and target and develop new audiences.
The Blue Room Theatre Seasons aim to support the artistic development of new performance, innovative ideas and exceptional performing artists in an affordable, accessible and creatively supportive environment. For Perth audiences, the Seasons provide a continuous, innovative and eclectic program of original, live performance.
Artists whose work is selected to be produced through the Seasons are offered four week's access to a fully equipped venue, with a three-week production season in either The Blue Room Main or Studio space. Both venues are intimate and flexible black box theatres (60 and 50 seats respectively). The small scale and intimacy of The Blue Room Theatre venues make them ideally suited for new and emerging producers to develop and showcase new work. Risk is minimised and artists are given the freedom to work with a high level of artistic autonomy.
Throughout their engagement with The Blue Room Theatre, artists will receive a high level of professional support including technical and production support and advice; marketing support including promotion as part of The Blue Room Theatre Season; front-of-house and booking service; support in business and project development; and a modest production fund. The Blue Room Theatre receives a 10% commission on all ticket sales.

THE MAIDS
by Jean Genet

Directed by Steven Hopley
Starring Emily Elise, Brinley Meyer and Alison Lee Rubie.

Claire and Solange are maids, sick to the gullet of being scuffed under the heels of their lady mistress. In a twisted evening of power-shifting role play, the two girls bite and scratch at one another in a vicious struggle to the top, a ritualistic tug-of-war which must finally end in silence or in sacrifice.

I couldn't help but notice yesterday rhat the old Revolve at Garrick was still obvious in the stage deck. Which must be a problem, even for the warm props treading the boards!

I would have thought the revolve had been sorted out by now. as it's had the snorkle? I started to wonder why they keep acomodating "IT' as it must be a total pain in the rhe aftend!

Venue:
Lighthouse Theatre

Playwright:
Eugene O'Neill

Director:
Nathan Finger

Details:

The Iceman Cometh, although O’Neill’s most nihilistic work, is considered to be one of the greatest plays in American drama. Set in a run down New York Saloon in 1912 the play focuses on a group of alcoholics and misfits who endless discuss but never act upon their dreams for tomorrow. That is until their old friend Hickey turns up and, with an abundance of charisma and flare, convinces them all that what they truly need to do to find peace is to act upon these never eventuating ‘pipe dreams’. But when they fail, as Hickey knew they would, and their hopes and dreams are stripped away, it is not peace but a deep depression which they slip into.

I helped out the other day the Garrick ameatre with the set, not that I did much, in fact I felt like a spare part! But I enjoyed It!
