Your faithful blogger is again hosting Things on
Sunday<http://www.malthousetheatre.com.au/whatson/sunday.html>at the
Malthouse Theatre on, yep, Sunday. The topic is "The Empty Space",
and I'll be hearing from Gideon Obarzanek of Chunky
Move<http://chunkymove.com.85.aspwebhosting.com.au/home.html>,
Malthouse Theatre <http://www.malthousetheatre.com.au/> AD Michael Kantor
and Juliana Engberg from the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art
<http://www.accaonline.org.au/>(ACCA) as they discuss space and design and
their relationship to dance, theatre and visual art.
August 13, 2.30pm. Cost: $10, free for Malthouse Theatre subscribers
Bookings highly recommended: Box Office (03) 9685 5111
And while we're on things Malthouse, Chris Boyd has a radically different
response<http://chrisboyd.blogspot.com/2006/08/not-really-about-not-like-beckett.html>to
*Not Like Beckett*, demonstrating that beautiful ability of theatre to
polarise audiences:
For the first time in my life, I climbed over people to get out of a
theatre. Climbed? I almost fell over people to get out.
Me, I went again last night (I was being Peter Clarke, who was unable to
host the Time To Talk session because of family problems) and was able to
review my response - it still works for me, especially when - say, 15
minutes in - it ceases to be a homage to our Sam. Chris, I think you missed
the good bits...
