lyndon blue: live reviews

SOME PERTH MUSIC YOU MIGHTN'T HAVE HEARD THAT YOU MAYBE OUGHT TO

Sometimes in my bleary-eyed wanderings through the internet or (sadly less often) a record store I’ll chance upon a local sound that is entirely remarkable, yet one that I’ve never so much as heard mentioned, be it in idle conversation, in writing, or what-have-you. And I get that pang of fear that I sometimes get when I lie in bed and think about unpublished novels – the “tip of the iceberg” heebie-jeebies – how many would-be literary classics lie, not only uncelebrated but unread, in someone’s grandparent’s dusty writing desk?

The Chronicles of Tahlia: The Return to Perth

Reader’s of last week’s Steady Eye column will know that I’m currently having a little holiday in Perth, and that I’m finding it quite nice to be back. In the 12 days I’ve been back here, I’ve had my ups and downs; catching up with friends, reconnecting with my youngest brother, having weird interactions with my recent ex, seeing the lifestyles of my extended family- and seeing a little bit of live music. This weekened just gone, I saw Pond on the Friday night at Norfolk Basesment, and Mink Mussel Creek and The Bakery, from which my mind went to all kinds of complex emotional places. I’ve written about my relationship with these boys before: http://www.coolperthnights.com/articles/steadyeye/133 , which is worth having a quick glance at to put this week’s ranting into some perspective.

much ado about nothing

at roleystone theatre, roleystone

Much Ado About Nothing
Playwright - William Shakespeare
Director – Paul Treasure
July 20, 21, 25, 27, 28
All shows at 8pm.

Joy abounds in Messina, as Don Pedro, the Prince of Arragon celebrates victory over his bastard brother. Amidst the celebrations those around the Prince have a number of tricky situations to navigate. There are two pairs of lovers, Benedick and Beatrice, and Claudio and Hero. Benedick and Beatrice are engaged in a very "merry war"; they both talk a mile a minute and proclaim their scorn for love, marriage, and each other. In contrast, Claudio and Hero are sweet young people who are rendered practically speechless by their love for one another.

Questions abound in this comedic romp: Will the young soldier Claudio marry the Governor’s daughter, Hero? Will Beatrice and Benedick overcome their quick wit and even quicker tongues to realize they are perfect for each other? And what terrible mischief is Don John planning?!

Tickets are $16 adult and $12 for 17 and under.

Tickets available online at HERE or by calling 9397 5730
