Hi, Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, come and see Her Infinite Variety, please :) The show is the result of three and half years of research, it's an exploration of the impact and influence the Actress had on the performance of Shakespeare during the Restoration. But don't take this to mean it's going to be intellectual (after all, it's me we're talking about here). We've got Wade Ellis in a dress, Murray Jackson and Martin Lindsay playing Demetrius (see if you can tell them apart!), Shakespeare throwing a hissy fit, Juliet meeting her Restoration counterpart and a Bard off, the likes of which the world has never seen. Performances will be on July 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th at 8pm at the Nexus Theatre, Murdoch University, South Street, Murdoch. Tickets are $15 adults and $12 concession, bookings can be made at herinfinitevariety@hotmail.com or on 0403 293 969 Book to see it, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please . . . and so on Melissa

Please do come to Her Infinite Variety

Not sure if promising the sight of Wade Ellis in a dress or Martin Lindsay and myself onstage together is the strongest of selling points but if you have any humanity, please come and watch because if you don't I will have to put up with her disappointment....for weeks. The winter is cold enough as it is. Take pity on me. Please. Oh, and Lindsay's really good - very amusing. And if you missed Romeo and Juliet earlier in the year you can see Sarah reprise her role pretty much. Oh yeah, and Wade Ellis in a dress.
