SHORT AND SWEET, Sydney 2011 – HERE WE COME!
I have to say how excited I am to have 3 plays in Sydney’s SHORT AND SWEET festival this year. Last year I had 2, so it’s on the up and up.
The plays are HONEY, AMICABLE RIVALS and NORMALITY
HONEY – SHORT AND SWEET – NIDA PARADE PLAYHOUSE FEB 2011. February is going to be a busy month. Just the way I prefer it. Hope to see you at the festival :)
THE BIGGEST 10 MINUTE PLAY FESTIVAL IN THE WORLD!

After the wonderful Week 5 of Short and Sweet (the biggest 10 minute play festival in the word!) competition was tough! A lot of time and energy goes into rehearsing and each performance night is different. There were dramas, absurd comedies and wonderfully written plays as well.
