The Shark Is Broken?

A new play about the famously
 troubled production of Jaws

I read this story at the BBC news site the other day and thought that this play would be a good vehicle for my fellow Sharkie mate Brendan Cowell to bring to the stage in Oz:-)

For the Times in Life When a Little More Motivation is Required

Although with stage plays like 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' cutting the run short in order to try to avoid a lock-down situation in Queensland in order to get to the relative safety of Western Australia, it probably wouldn't even help if you had the golden ticket:-( 

Just Keep Swimming?!

A performer at the Bolshoi Theatre has been killed
 in an accident on stage during an opera

All the World’s a Stage?

The incident occurred in
a performance of Sadko 

Scene 7 – Novogrod, a green meadow on the shores of Lake Ilmen

Sadko is asleep by the lakeside. Volkhova watches over him and sings a lullaby. Before he wakes, she bids him farewell and then disappears, becoming changed into the River Volkhova that now links Lake Ilmen with the sea. Lubava finds her husband asleep and wakes him: he believes that his voyage was nothing but a dream, but the sight of the new river and his fleet of ships convinces him that he really is now a very wealthy man.
