Adelaide Reviews
As a hugely popular 2007 science fiction film, The Man From Earth has quite a hurdle to mount to be as successful on stage.
It’s Bill and Rachel’s wedding day. The stag party was the night before and Bill wakes up with a horrible headache and a naked woman asleep next to him who he doesn’t know. Oops!
Michaela has researched hard, talked with and written to relatives and friends of these characters so close to her until she has unearthed good tales and bad, triumphs and disasters, admirable lives and tragic deaths.
What a welcome the packed audience gave to Ali McGregor when she stepped out on stage to tell the story of Yma Sumac at the Dunstan Playhouse!
The Maids is an angry, violent play involving just three women – two maids, aged 30 and 35, in the opulent home of Madame in Paris.
What a treasure Ali McGregor is and sorry we are that this is the end of her time as Artistic Director of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.
It was the first time I heard a collective pleasurable sigh from an audience after hearing just 8 notes on the piano. I will never hear that song again without remembering that.
