‘Falling Praying’ Nominated For Awards And The ABC Interview.

Melbourne Short and Sweet ended on Saturday night at the Arts Centre and ‘Falling Praying’ did very well. The show picked up nominations for ‘Best Comedy Script’ and ‘Best Production’ to add to the ‘Judge’s Choice’ and ‘People’s Choice’ awards it won earlier this year at Crash Test Drama.

Falling Praying was at it’s best on the final night and the audience were in hysterics.

A huge thank you and well done to our incredible director Jacqui Shulz, who took this little play well past the script and created something quite amazing.

Thanks also to our brilliant actors; Josh Futcher, who won the ‘Best Male Actor’ award and immediately called his mum, and Sonya Kerr, who also fared well with the judges.

Josh, Sonya and I had a bit too much fun being interviewed on ABC radio last week and the entire interview, including an excerpt from the play, can be heard here. My voice isn’t normally this high… I think I was trying to appear non-threatening. The interviewer was very interested in my past as a professional juggler and fire eater… I forget people find that interesting.
