“Thank-you FAM for a great performance today.  A powerful perspective on women during war.  My boys found it interesting as they’d never thought about it that way.” Sally Cocks Bright

We enjoyed our October performance of On the Home Front at the Bright Stadium with students, staff and members of the community.

While the play is very moving there were some lighter moments as “Marjorie Davies” learned about drenching and crutching sheep. One student was overheard giving great detail of crutching to friends after the performance.

Many thanks also to Bright RSL for their support with Warren Barnard’s introduction.

Please contact FAM if your school or community would like an opportunity to host a performance of On the Home Front in 2016.

Bright RSL Host Preview

Special thanks to Bright RSL Sub Branch Inc. for their support in hosting our preview of ON THE HOME FRONT.

This Centenary of ANZAC play is in development and the Q & A session after the performance provided generous praise,  feedback and contributions for the evolution of the play.

FAM hopes to tour this play in 2015 with the support of ANZAC Centenary Arts & Culture funding. We’ll know more on the success of our grant submission early next year. In the meantime we welcome support from all sections of the business and community sectors.

FAM Presents to Mount Beauty Probus Club

Its been so busy I forgot to thank the Mount Beauty Probus group for inviting me to speak a few weeks back.

They were warm and welcoming. I introduced my self as a “frustrated Thespian” hilarious thing was my mic technique wasn’t up to scratch, it cut out a little and a gentleman didn’t hear me correctly and thought I said I was a “frustrated lesbian!” Classic!

He has given me permission to use that story as my opener next time I present.

I noted a couple of frustrated Thespians among the the group I might add.

Thank you to Eleni Wood for the opportunity.
