Editorial

This is the tale of two men dying. Accidentally locked in a Melbourne restaurant's refrigerated meat locker, Dror, an Israeli Jew, and Marwan, a Lebanese Muslim, are facing death - and each other.

After working together as chefs at the restaurant, there is nothing now to distract them from the past. Their respective homelands' history of conflict is driving their relationship to an emotional and explosive head, and the coolroom is killing them.

Written by young Israeli-born playwright Sivan Gabrielovich, The Cool Room is based on the 1982 operation that led to an 18-year military conflict between Israel and Lebanon. It is an unrelenting play but it is not a history lesson. The script is abstract and surreal with comedy floating between the insults, verbal terrorism and haunting memories of war.

As Dror and Marwan blow on their freezing fingers or bang pointlessly on the jammed door, their spitting hatred, tormented memories and dented belief in decency and hope are revealed.

Interacting with Dror and Marwan is the Meat Chorus - three actors hanging like dead carcasses on the wall. Dressed in bloodstained aprons, they speak as one, confronting and teasing Dror and Marwan.

Gabrielovich and director Deborah Leiser-Moore don't treat their difficult topic gingerly. We are treated to tales of earthy one-night stands, midnight raids and bomb victims half alive in pools of their own blood.

Karen Therese, Konstantinos Tsetsonis and Alex Ben-Mayor are excellent as the chorus, carrying on alternately like playful buffoons then needling antagonisers. Matthew Crosby's Dror is drenched in angst and anger, and Rodney Afif forms Marwan from dark, resigned confusion.


Where:Belvoir St Theatre
25 Belvoir St
Surry Hills, NSW
When: To be decided.
Price: Adult $25; concession $19 plus booking fees.

conundrum

By any chance, would anyone know what this means???

"It is useless to pick the blossoms,

Which is written on the sign,

For the wind cannot read"

I was reading this dude's blog, and I find it quite funny. Hehehe.

Classic Fever

Hi guys!
I'm at work right now and my manager brought in her collection of "Your 100 Favourite Classical Masterpieces" and some of the pieces in here are just stunning.

Remember the time when we were thinking of going to the Opera House to listen to Mozarts stuff? Good news!!! There's something similar on at a different venue and at a much, much cheaper price!!! ^_^

It's only playing for one night at The City Recital Hall AND the best part of it all is that it's only $25 for people under the age of 26 for A, B or C Reserve!! People over the age of 26 would have to pay $67 for a seat in A Res!

Classical Prodigies
It was as an infant painist that Mozart first came to public attention. His life long love affair with the piano resulted in some of the best concertos ever written. Beethoven was also hailed as a youthful genius of the keyboard. His brilliance as a composer developed more slowly, but as his Symphony no.1 shows, it was worth the wait!

MENDELSSOHN - Overture to a Midsummer Night's Dream
MOZART - Piano Concerto in D minor
BEETHOVEN - Romance no.2 for violin and orchestra
BEETHOVEN - Symphony no.1 in C major

date and time: TUESDAY 25TH NOVEMBER
presented by: Australian Chamber Orchestra
Price: $25!!!!!!!!!

Who's in?

New Blood

Some Chinese horror movie that a friend recommended. Movie night anyone?

Fobby fone covers.

Have all of you seen my phone cover? It's this red crocheted thing with a little doggie at the front of it. I had this guy come up to me at uni and asked where i got my 'phone warmer' from because his mobile gets cold. I laughed really hard in his face, not to be mean.. but I thought it was funny.
I thought he was serious too.. I started saying, 'oh, it's at this store in chinatown...'
Then I realised he was only making fun of me!

Self Worth

I apologise for not posting an entry for so long. It feels like I don't have the time, but I shouldn't do things out of convenience. I gotta start making an effort towards the things that matter to me. I have a bestfriend. Her name is Bich (prounced bic). We've been best buds since grade 4 and I love her to death but I don't see her that often. I need to make an effort because even though she means a lot to me, I need to show her that.

You guys are more than just random aliases floating around the web. I value the friendship even though I don't do a great job at showing it. This blog means a great deal and has brought us closer... enough of the sappy stuff.

I've been talking to a friend about 'self worth'. He made me realise that it is socially acceptable to think lowly of yourself because any thing more would be seen as arrogant. Sometimes he would talk himself up just to see the reactions from other people. Self worth, how you see yourself - how do we measure it, what do we base it on? I'm not good enough because i'm not pretty enough, i'm not smart enough, i'm hardly talented with anything I do, I don't possess enough passion in life. Why do we take crap from other people. If you don't like something you see or hear, would you speak up and defend your beliefs? How often do we put other people before ourselves. It's a good thing to care, but some people would virtually do things that would hurt themselves just to please others, because they must be more important. How often do we hesitate about persuing a love interest because we think we're not good enough.. this has got to stop.

Now repeat after me.
Yes, I can.
You want me.
My butt looks good in this.
I don't like that.

*raises glass* to a more arrogant us.

p.s Thanks to the person who inspired me about self worth.

More upcoming events!!!! Gimme more more more! :)
