Ever-controversial, ultra-Arty and highly-paid director Barry Kosky has some interesting admissions to make in a frank article in the Sydney Morning Herald. Interesting, but nothing very new here. I think most of us have known for years that Barry is a failure. He's only just recognised failure as an artform.;)CheersGrant

ONE WHOLE HOUR!) docco on the bilious little freak.Goes to show the old maxim still stands: Money talks, bulls**t tags along for the ride.El

> I also saw the program re: kosky and was impressed at his rate of failure. It gave me hope for community theatre as the programme showed that we have better success rates than even the most celebrated directors such as himself. By the way has anyone witnessed the abissmal effort of D Williamson's foray into TV on the ABC> Nesxt table along>
