Our last episode! We have been thinking about ending the show for quite some time and felt this was an appropriate punctuation point; The Visitors (spoilers - the best play Carla has ever seen) and the last production of Little One's theatre Lesbian Vampires of Sodom. A production company we felt a great affinity with (and along a similar timeline to this show). All great things must come to a conclusion, even 2000 year long lesbian vampiric frenemies.
Thank you to everyone who have supported us over the years. Thank you to the incredible artists, whose works we have discussed and been inspired by. To Ron from Shackwest who has always made us sound so incredible. The Mark Gomes who has provided us with our compelling and perfect theme song for all these years and finally to Phil whose luminous proximity has made me so sharp and human xx Carla

Ep 63 - Burnout Paradise, Staunch ASF
It’s Fringe Mania! Phil and I saw a whole bunch of shows at the best festival of the year and it felt good. Really good. We watched young people sweat and work and contemplate late capitalism from their treadmills in Ponycam’s Burnout Paradise (http://Burnout Paradise | Melbourne Fringe).
In Intermission we chat the sublime A Dodgeball Named Desire (http://A Dodgeball Named Desire | Melbourne Fringe)by The Bloomshed and Fringe Theatre Winner Someday We’ll Find It (http://Someday We). Our second act takes us to Meat Market where we saw the lyrical and accomplished work Staunch ASF (http://STAUNCH ASF | Melbourne Fringe).
In Coming Soon we chat Little One’s Theatre swan song Vampire Lesbians of Sodom (http://Vampire Lesbians of Sodom » fortyfivedownstairs), (now over) Sydney Theatre Company’s The Visitors (http://The Visitors - Geelong Arts Centre) and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf (http://WHO)? at Red Stitch.
If you value our podcast please tell a friend and get them to add it! Our listens are now non-existent and we’re wondering if we still keep going? Love Carla, Phil and Ron.

Ep 62 - The Crocodile, Yuldea
Make it snappy. We experienced The Crocodile (https://fortyfivedownstairs.com/event/the-crocodile/) by the formidable Spinning Plates Co. and went deep on fame and all it takes to keep this arts economy going, our second show is the magical Yuldea (https://www.bangarra.com.au/productions/yuldea/) by Bangarra. In Intermission we went deeper on the ethics of zoos and our love of Chinese gardens. In Coming Soon we recommend The Visitors by Victorian Opera (https://www.victorianopera.com.au/production/the-visitors/), the Fringe encore season (https://geelongartscentre.org.au/melbourne-fringe-encore/) at Geelong Arts Centre and Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill.
