Information about the December 2007 Six O'clock Swill.
December brings a sneak peak at On the Conditions and Possibilities of Helen Clark Taking Me as Her Young Lover* adapted from the book by Richard Meros.
An original theatrical monologue exploring obsession, politics and the hopes and dreams of a passionate but confused generation. Ostensibly the performance is an impassioned logical analysis of how the Right Honourable Miss Clark would succumb to the temptation provided by the lonely performer, the over-educated and unemployed character of Richard Meros charges through the pop-culture slipstream of our recent political history to prove his amorous point.
Director: Jeff Pinfold Starring: Arthur Meek
In The Muse by American playwright Quincy Long a playwright visits his muse.
He has come unprepared but hey, he can wing it, right? She's his muse and she'll love his brilliant idea for a new play; no question about it. So, who is this unknown playwright who dares to position himself above the 'names' in his chosen profession? Who is the muse who dares to challenge his import? And who are these two fine new actors who dare to bring you their truthful interpretation of a wonderfully written piece?
Director: Phil Darkins Starring: Melissa Billington and David Allen
