“Hans + Gret” - Theatre Review, 2023 - My Thoughts 💭
For Windmill Theatre Queens Theatre, Adelaide March 5-12, 2023 Windmill Theatre provide another twisty reimagining of a popular children’s story or fairytale. I remember seeing their triple bill back in 2014 for the Adelaide Festival with the outstanding “Fugitive” (Robin Hood), “Girl Asleep” (very loosely Sleeping Beauty) and “School Dance” - more so a hilariously nostalgic look back on the formal (prom) and being a geek in the 80s. (A coming of age tale that’s a little John Hughes-esque). I’ve not seen their versions of Rumpelstiltskin and The Wizard of Oz, but I hear they were also memorable performances.

“The Son” Film Review 2023 -My Thoughts 💭
Please note: this review contains some spoilers, as well as references to mental health issues, self harm etc. ~ This emotionally manipulative and derivative slice of familial disharmony and mental illness must be one of the worse films I’ve seen in two years. “The Son” chronicles teenager Nicholas (Zen McGrath) who battles with depression as he decides to move to his father’s apartment in NYC (his parents are separated) as he fears he needs a change and is too much for his mother Kate (Laura Dern). His father Peter (Hugh Jackman) now lives with his new wife Beth (Vanessa Kirby) with whom he has had a newborn.

Movie Melodic MilestonesTop Story - June 2023
I have always seemed to live my life inextricably through the movies rather than any other tangible force, so a movie melodic milestone playlist of songs or musical moments from film seemed most appropriate to me for the recent challenge. I guess the music takes me back to those innocent times of yesteryear, but are also highly comforting to listen to (or watch the movies they’re from) NOW in the present. If I could, this list would be of about 30 songs from the movies. As it is - this small list are just some of those that were most memorable to me growing up and probably for some of you too!
