Play Review by
Martin Williams
French farce
gets a 2011 makeover with the Scotland Island Players' new production
of “Jealousy and Lust on the Island” which opened to a packed house at
Tennis Court Community Hall last night. It runs on the weekend, Friday
27th and Saturday 29th May.
Michael, an
island houseowner finds out about his wife's infidelity – and cooks up
a scheme of revenge against her lover. A choice involving murder
unfolds. However, Max, the unfortunate beau in question, decides to
plan an alternative course and that's when the inevitable mistaken
identity occurs. Saucy maids, wives, cuckold and cuckholding husbands
and a long legged lady of the night all play their energetic parts. So
starts a dinner party where nothing - and no one - is to be taken at
face value.
Artistic
Director Bob Bolton's play transports the chorus of laughter and the
best Broadway and West End theatre to a Scotland Island waterfront,
with hilarious action spectacularly wound into a story that's
reflective of those special aspects of the bays! The cast includes
Gordon 'from spurned to lusted' Floyd, Kez 'maid in heaven'
Borthwick-Bolton, Matt 'macho to madness' Bowden, Jess 'legs and
diamonds' Thompson, Lyn 'softly revenging' Savage, with leading lady,
Cheryl 'dark seductress' Wagner, supported by David 'barking in the
background' Richards!
“Utterly
involving and falteringly funny - I'll go again tonight.” Netta, Island
Art Critic.
“Legendary
island entertainment.” Juliet, New islander and artist.
“Great,
fantastic, the best play I've seen this year.” Matt, Entrepreneur
Builder.
"A
theatrical experience, a great laugh and artistic community gathering
well worth the price of two tickets. Don't miss out, book now!"
Critic Dr Martin Williams- Lecturer communications, UTS.
Quad Bike Taken...
My name is Evan Starling. I live at 37 Richard Rd ( the
little white cottage on the waterfront). Approximately a
month ago I was informed that my Quad bike (green in colour) was taken
from my back yard. After hearing this, I went up
the back to see if anyone had seen or heard of where it may have
gone. I spoke to a gentleman whippersnipping the lawns behind
my property and he informed me that he knew of a young man who had
taken it. He said that the young man had thought it had been
sitting there so long, he thought it had been put out for the clean up.
Quad bikes are not collected in the clean up and it was taken a week
after the clean up was over!
I told him to ask this person to return it as it was not being thrown
out & it was on my property. Thankfully two days
later my Quad bike had been returned. Unfortunately I left it
another two weeks before I ventured up the back to check on
it. I was stunned to find that the electricals from the front
lights to the ignition and other things had been ripped out.
Obviously the person who took it had tried to hotwire it because, of
course, I had the keys!!
I have since not been able to contact the gentleman I spoke to who was
whiipersnipping on that day and I would like to find the offender as
this is my only means of getting around the Island (being in a
wheelchair). I was aware that it had two flat tyres but I was
waiting until the accessible wharf at Tennis was complete before
getting it back on the track.
If the gentleman that I spoke to that day could assist me in finding
the culprit or anyone has any information regarding this matter, I
would greatly appreciate a call on 0402 362280.
