    “Playing The Bard” returns to Howard Fine Acting Studio in August …

    July 26, 2019 /

    We’re now hurtling into the second half of the year and there is a lot going on, but nothing much I can talk about … yet. However, the one thing I can share is that “Playing The Bard: Shakespeare In Performance” is returning to Howard Fine Acting Studios in Melbourne in August AND HFAS Australia is having a Winter Sale, so all courses can be booked at a 20% discount (discount applied at checkout, so no codes to remember). We’re doing scenes this next class, and bookings are starting to fill, so get in now to grab your place and get the discount! All details here: https://www.howardfinestudio.com.au/allcalendar/2018/4/24/playing-the-bard-shakespeare-in-performance-g4ddn Speaking of HFAS…

    June 10, 2019 /

    It has been a crazy month of May, which has been wonderful and brilliant and I am so grateful to everyone who made all of it possible! Firstly, the team at Shakespeare Republic were delighted and thrilled to win the “Best Ensemble Cast (Series)” Award at the 2019 London International Motion Pictures Awards, held in the UK mid-May. This is our second award for “Best Ensemble” and myself and all my fellow cast are so grateful for this recognition of the work!

    I am so delighted to share that Shakespeare Republic (the web series that has been taking up nearly all my time for the past four years), is now streaming (both Seasons One & Two) from it’s new official, exclusive home on awesome Aussie content streaming platform, Ozflix – and managed to break all records with the highest viewership of a new launch in Ozflix’s history!

    Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a great break over the holiday period and are back and ready to go for 2019. I intended to have a bit of downtime over Christmas and New Year, but, as is usually the case, things transpired to the contrary. But I’m definitely not complaining as they’re great developments for one of my projects and I can’t wait to share the news with you all when I can! That said, there is a lot of stuff I can share, so here we go … Asia Web Awards Win! After my announcement last month about the various nominations we received at the…

    I know I said that I was taking a break from the Internet and work in general in my last update, but this news is just too exciting to not share! I’m so thrilled to say that last weekend the nominees for the 2018 Asia Web Awards were announced and among the wonderful list of creatives and artists listed, I somehow managed to land a Best Actress nomination for playing “Beatrice”, as well as a Best Director nomination for Shakespeare Republic! AMAZING!! The series received FIVE nominations in all – the other three being Best Music (Jordan Ross), Best Drama Series and Best Web Series (All Genres)!! So blown away…

    December already! Where has the time gone? 2018 has whipped by and brought so much wonderful stuff professionally with it, for which I am very, very grateful. Of course, as it’s nearing the end of the year, it meant that I fell ill almost immediately after the HFAS Master Class in November, as I was finally in the position for the first time in 12 months where I didn’t have to be somewhere doing something. Well, I had to be in a couple of places, but my body had other ideas and I just had to stop and rest for a while. Of course, that enforced halt gave me some…

    It’s been a crazy few months, with interviews, more filming, a couple of acting gigs and the Shakespeare projects continuing to screen at film festivals around the world – much to all the team’s ongoing delight! Just to keep a record of what’s been going on, I’m going to simply brain dump everything here in this post, so you’ve been warned! SHAKESPEARE REPUBLIC Where do I begin?! It’s been an amazing time for Shakespeare Republic, which is wonderful considering we’re in the last stages of Season Two’s festival run and yet, its success keeps surprising me and making me so proud of all the team. To start with, the series…

    So that’s another WebFest done for 2018, only this time I wasn’t just there as a creator, but primarily in my role as General Manager. Melbourne WebFest is over for another year and it was a crazy, intense, fun and exhausting ride! But I love these guys and the festival and it was so good to be able to catch up with so many people that I haven’t had a chance to see in ages, but also make some new friends in the online series world. In what has turned out to be the biggest MWF to date, we had four days of screenings, panels, networking events and of course…
