Sitting underneath the Palais des Glaces Spiegeltent at The Pleasure Gardens, I looked up at the stained glass windows of this beautiful structure from yester year.
The tent billowed gently in the breeze of the air conditioning – keeping us cool on another warm Perth night.
Punters gathered at ringside chatting and drinking merrily, as we waited for the magic of La Soirée to unfold at Perth Fringe World.
And unfold it did.
A quick scan of the synopsis for Venus in Fur will give you the gist of what is going to happen in David Ives' recent play being staged by Black Swan State Theatre Company (the advertising poster might also give you an idea or two!)
But as with many things in life, it is the journey, rather than the final destination, that is most important.
Thanks to the efforts of the cast and crew, the Venus in Fur trip is well worth taking.
The much awaited "Unearthed Exhibition" will debut at Gallows Gallery in Mosman Park this Sunday 19 January 2015. Deeply inspired by nature and the landscapes of Australia, the trio of well known, WA artists Jeannette Dyson, Jennifer Sadler and Sandy Tippett will display their artworks to the Perth community.
The artists have exhibited across Australia and overseas, and the Unearthed Exhibition is the second time that they have come together to present their unique paintings that showcase our stunning Western Australian landscapes.
The suburb of Inglewood in Perth was buzzing with a hive of activity as we headed to the Inglewood night markets on a Monday night.
The person behind the idea for the markets is none other than the “Prince of Flesh” Vince Garreffa of Mondo Butchers whose vision is to bring to life the laneways of Inglewood.
The markets have been running since their big opening night on Monday 8 December 2014, and it has certainly brought out every man, woman and his dog from the burbs which are usually quiet on Monday evenings.
For those looking for a unique food and cultural experience, the Gardens of Government House will be open today for the Perth Consular Corps World of Food Festival.
Food will be present from countries as far and wide as Kenya, Portugal, Peru, Japan, India, Mauritius, and Nepal, so foodie lovers will be looking forward to this event of gastronomic proportions. There will also be cultural performances during the day.
Maylands hawkers markets kicked off the season on Saturday 1 November with the theme of Day of the Dead and it certainly kicked off with a bang. It was a full house and when we arrived, we were greeted to a huge crowd of patrons, family, kids and dogs in tow, in the area outside the Maylands RISE.
Though it was quite crowded, it was a friendly atmosphere, with people enjoying their meal, chatting, talking, and checking out the food stalls. Kids were kept entertained playing amongst themselves, and running around on the grassed areas.
The markets had a lively atmosphere, and the usual suspects were there.
