Newsflash!

In what can only be described as the biggest thing to happen to a Westerford Drama Alumnus since, Zingi got a part in Hard Copy, Talya Chalef, (yes, that Talya!) has been nominated for a Green Room award (very prestigious drama award in Melbourne) for her work directing her second to most recent play! BOOM BOOM! Eckard would be proud!




Having seen most of Talyas productions (sitting in the back row with my broken SA flag) i can say without a hint of bias, that it is long overdue, and well deserved. We are all VERY proud of our Tals! And we can all say we knew her when...

This entry was the work of both Alex in Melbourne (with the news) and Greg in Sydney (with the internet connection).

Go you good thing! Fahkin bloody rippah mayte. Well done tally, well done indeed!

On a separate note, can anyone tell me why when I navigate to our blog it presents 17 Feb as the latest post? I have to click on February or 2007 on the right hand side to get this stuff... Anyone else having that problem?

Greg said...

Nope, only you. Are you using Firefox or IE? Do you have the new IE?

Alex said...

Well done Tally! You are brilliant!

Dr Phil said...

Firefox of course. It's sorted now... Bru Joburg is so fuckin dumb. The bill for Diplo has about 500 different acts over 3 floors at Carfax. Check at the crap we have to live with http://www.jhblive.co.za/live/events_view.jsp?event_id=108931

Holy macaroni! Besides that car crash of a flyer, when has Diplo ever had a major release on Ninja Tunes? or Big Dada for that matter?

If i was talking to the promoter, i would be all like "are you high???
I said, are YOU HIGH???
Damn son, you high!"

HOLLA!
