Changes

Posted July 21st, 2006 by jhuny

I had just gotten back from Lismore and was driving home from PT (who had kindly allowed me to leave my car at his place). As I was driving down Cleveland Street I notice that the garage where I normally take my car for servicing was totally gutted out. Crazy. Very annoying because I now have to find somewhere else to take my car in. Oops! How rude of me... I hope no one got hurt and I'm sorry for the owner's losses, they were quite good to me.

Anyway, more changes: Sydney Dance Company are in need of a new Artistic Director. I know, this is extremely old news but I've been away! This Sydney Morning Herald article places just about all the blame on the lack of government funding for dance. I really don't know where to begin commenting about this, its such big news for our neighbours and I hope the dancers are all okay... not a situation I would like to be in.

However, I am interested to see who the company will get to replace Murphy. I'm having alot of trouble imagining the company with a different director, then again the dancers took to Narelle Benjamin's choreography really well, and I really did like the company performing Stephen Petronio's Underland. Never underestimate a dancer's ability to cope with change, just ask me! The change in directorship of the company is big news but I don't think it will necessarily be down hill from here.

Oh, and there's a local Woolies now, on Bourke Street. How convenient! Change is not always a bad thing.
