Sita Sings the Blues

Wake up in a mop sweat in bed at number 4 Susannah Place and, if you're lucky (time travel wise), you're in the early rat-infested era of Sydney (there are no time travel insurance policies). Take an afternoon stroll through the hospital where the nurses are all Catkind, and you're in the indeterminate future far from here. Voices, smells, location and decay. All signs pointing to where you are in time and conflict. Mix them all up and something just feels rather anachronistic about it all.

We Will Rock You: the musical by Queen & Ben Elton - Lyric Theatre, Star City - 10/10/04

The roulette table captures money as a result of a miscalculated guess on even to show red 15. Time taken reads a full minute with half an hour to spare for the walk up the spiral of stairs and stairs to the Grand Circle level of Star City's Lyric Theatre. We Will Rock You posters cover the windows and walls, a crowd gathers too close to each other breathing about as the call for seats is made. Melbourne's showing is looping on a few of the televisions bracketed to the wall and We Will Rock You gently buzzes the air.

Debbie Does Dallas the musical - Everest Theatre, Seymour Centre - 15/09/04

Screening the word "cops" left a half-minute unaccounted for. Blood vessels at the back of the brain wanted to break free as a temple tried to explode and the intestines were ready to collapse into a pit of devolving strawberry chaos. A sheet of notice mopped up large amounts of forehead sweat and when handed to the lady behind the box office, never seen again. Expecting to close the doors at 2000hrs, the PA tries to vocally usher in the straggling patrons on another night on the extended season of Debbie Does Dallas the musical. Failure here sees no strong arm tactics in holding off those just outside the session start.

Undone, unbound, the sounds aground, life's taking the train with a soundtrack of harmonic dissonance, of inner turmoils and evolutionary spotchecking.
