With special guest Artist Kathryn Gray, we talk Contingency plans, perceptions mixed with illusion and reality, rhetoric, persuasion and influence remixed creating narrative and suspense. What on earth does all that mean, join us with your ears as we explore the rabbit hole.....
Running off the back of the Sydney Film Festival, we explore the true origins of Cinema, special effects and film. Moving pictures born from 20th century, science, art, magic, vaudeville, theatre and the hunger for wonder had a dramatic effect on the entertainment industry, thus killing off vaudeville and the golden age of magic itself...
Magic is the burlesque of science...!....we welcome special guest Rachel St James, Australia’s queen of burlesque. I have an irresistible proposition bet for our guests, and we talk all about Orson Welles and his radio play “The War of the Worlds†with the Mercury Theatre on the Air. We finally cross live to Patricks of Sydney, and attempt a psychological and physical miracle down the phone lines, this time my Arch Nemesis will not interfere !
