Our last day in Paris, and trek back home.

We didn't need to rise early today, checkout was at 10am so we decided to snooze a little longer, having already packed last night. Our flight isn't until 10:40 tonight, so writing in Charles de Gaulle is my last Parisian activity before the long haul home to see our boys in about a day's time (or t...

A pretty park, a lot of stairs and a spot of shopping

Our visit to The Louvre and Eiffel Tower, with complementary scuffle!

It's been a full day. There's so much on offer in Paris and we covered a bit of territory today. Our first stop was the Louvre Museum, so we got up early, knowing we were going to be navigating the public transport system for the first time. It turns out it was pretty easy. The lady at the station's...

Our last day in Stockholm and moving along to Paris

Our last day in Stockholm was a warm summer's day. So warm, in fact, we shopped for shorts. That's our excuse, and we're sticking to it. The shop attendant in Dressman and Odenplan was really friendly and interested in having a chat to her to Aussie visitors. She gave us a couple of good tips for Pa...

Theatre is so much more powerful when you can relate to the characters and what they're going through. Butterfly Kicks explores what it might be like to be able to act on those butterflies you feel as an adolescent when your eyes meet someone across the room and they happen to be the same s*x.

Writer, Actor and Producer, Jamila Main chatted to Andy about the upcoming production, opening at Rumpus Theatre on May 18.

The access guide Jamila has put together for the show is extensive to provide thorough detail about access to the venue.

Missed out on booking tickets to this sold-out success? Fear not!

You can still book tickets via Black Box Theatres view-from-home live streaming service. Some of the effects are even designed for some extra shine for anyone who can’t make it in person.

Joanne Hartstone chatted to me about her show, which is definitely not an ‘ode to the Nazis’, and how an emerging pattern of creeping fascism inspired her latest one-person show, in the style of Weimar cabaret.
