Wonderful performance.

A tense moment...

It was an amazing festival and I’m very happy Michael McCrann directed my very dark play ‘Justice’  The story of one man’s personal vendetta against a group of men who raped and killed his sister.  There were a few twists in the script that had the audience on the edge of their seats.

Another Playtime Production, ONLINE OFFSIDE, premiered at the World Bar in Sydney in June 2010.   Nic and his ex wife Cynthia compete yet again.  Nic wants his ex to think he’s ‘moved on’ with his life and is now seeing the very sexy yet very quite Giorgia.  His life couldn’t be better.  Cynthia only wants to brag about her new man Alex.  In this play, nothing is what it appears to be.  Alex and Gioria have more in common than anyone realises. The play was directed by Nir Shelter and featured: Valentino Arico, Celia Kelly, Heidi Lupprian, Aaron Nilan and Alastair Buchanan.
