What a fabulous evening we had when LOUISE JAMESON (Leela) and Nigel Friars (Big Finish) appeared at Pride Of Our Footscray Nightclub and Bar as part of the Sirens of Audio weekend.
Louise performed some of her favourite Shakespeare scenes, along with fascinating explanations, ably assisted by her “Gay Best Friend”, Nigel, and two surprised Audience Volunteers. Also sharing stories from other parts of her career and some of her own amazing work. Over an hour of captivating, funny, moving, heartbreaking, inspiring entertainment.
The Venue was perfect for it. Intimate, personal, just the right size for the audience. Great food and drinks were also available. Afterwards, Louise and Nigel “worked the room” as only professionals as they are could, as those with VIP tickets to the Sunday Event gathered in the Cocktail Bar after the show. This event replaced the usual VIP Dinner that comes with each visiting Doctor Who personality.
If you were not already in awe of these two amazing people, you certainly would be after such a magical evening!
I called the evening, in promotions on Gay pages, “Invasion Of The Geek Daddies”… 😊
