The story deals with the efforts of Simone, a young fledgling art dealer, to sell a painting by Australian artist Brett Whitely for a record $2 million and thereby establish herself at the “big end of town”. This ambition turns to desperation when she signs a contract guaranteeing this price.

Up for Grabs - the Musical!

Well I got dragged along to see this show last night.
It wasn't SUPPOSED to be a musical
For some reason they had music playing all through the show.
Still haven't decided whether I liked that or not.
The show, however, was fantastic!
Can Kirsten Twynum-Perkins act?
Still don't know - she did no visible acting last night... She WAS the character
In fact there was very little acting on the stage at all, it was great, we saw real live people on stage, not just characters!
I'd go again... in fact I think I will!
Hehehe... "Up for Grabs" for Best Set at the Finley's!
(You'll understand when you see it)
