Local art is still alive

I'm off to live in Auckland for a while or longer, not sure. Anyhow, this website came up on facebook. Rosa was at Fine Arts the same time I was. Her website is really nice and her paintings are great. Have a look:

While I'm pimping art in Christchurch you should go have a look at this gallery. It is very good.

Finding new ways to tell that same old story

Every one likes the classic fairy stories. I do anyhow. There is something addictive about the sense of danger and sorrow in them but the simplicity and bittersweet optimism inside them always gives me a feeling of relief. I enjoy that.

 I'm doing another silent clowning show for kids by Dan Bain for the Court Theatre. Its going to be in a 700 seat venue, so, I will be interested to see how it goes. The show you ask? Hansel & Gretel.

Come if you please. Its a 'kids play' but physical comedy is for everyone. Unless of course you are a jaded bastard.
