NORMALITY-CRASH TEST DRAMA November 2010
Normality was crash tested at Sydney’s Crash test drama @ Newtown Theatre in November 2010. Clare Martin (Liz) and Graham Yates (Richard) did a wonderful job as the husband and wife who are struggling to come to terms with something very serious in their life. Clare won BEST ACTRESS. My play won BEST PLAY as voted by the judges and William Russell (Director) won BEST DIRECTOR.
Well done to you all. I have to mention that GRAHAM YATES did a fantastic job as the ill Richard. Normality made it to the finals and WON!!
Graham wasn’t able to be in the finals and Alastair Buchanan took the role on as Richard. Alastair also did a wonderful job. Thank you, William, Clare, Graham and Alastair for doing such a wonderful job with such a complex and delicate script. You have all been a part of a wonderful journey and have helped in getting NORMALITY into the SHORT AND SWEET TOP 110 Sydney, February 2011 @ NIDA parade playhouse.
HONEY – Crash Test Drama Sydney June 2010
Alastair Buchanan and Kate Avery
Dona’s second Crash Test Drama stint landed her with HONEY winning the popular audience vote and now will be in the Crash Test Drama Finals on 2nd August 2010. Dona directed HONEY and the cast members were Alaistar Buchanan, Katy Avery, Alana Worsley and Dudy Jap.
When Mia requests John to pour honey all over and…….. well the night looks like it might go very well, until Mia’s friend Megan makes a desperate call to her saying she needs to come over to discuss the issues her and her boyfriend are having. That puts a spanner in the works and John and
Dudy Jap and Alana Worsley
Mia’s night turns out far from sweet.
Will update after the final in August 2010.
There’s going to be some fierce competition, but it’s going to be a great night! Alastair also won ‘best runner up actor’ on the night. i also had a protegee’, Maite Carvell, who will make also be my protegee’ at the finals next month.
Break a leg everyone. Let’s make it as sweet as we can.
