Dior J'adore














Gold is cold,
Diamonds are dead,
A limousine is a car,
Don't pretend,
Feel what's real,
C'est ça que J'adore

Giselle






____________________

The Australian Ballet
presents
GISELLE
____________________

The Ultimate Romantic Ballet
Do not miss this spellbinding tale of love and betrayal

Revisit the traditional charms of the classic Giselle. Girl meets boy. Girl gets boy. Girl loses boy, dies of a broken heart and joins a band of vengeful ghosts.

This is one of the real showpieces of classical ballet: steeped in history; extravagantly staged; and full of demanding, traditional ballet dancing.

2006 marks the 20th anniversary of Maina Gielgud's much-loved and extraordinarily beautiful production of Giselle that has been seen on stages around the world.

Waterfalls

I seen a rainbow yesterday
But too many storms have come and gone
Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
And like His promise is true
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
Wit' such an endurin' pain
That it keeps em' in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame
For tootin' 'caine into your own vein
What a shame
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim to be insane
And name this day and time
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
In hopes of comin' true
Believe in yourself
The rest is up to me and you

V for Vendetta




Remember, remember, the fifth of November,


The gunpowder, treason and plot.


I know of no reason why gunpowder, treason


Should ever be forgot.

Hammering the drunk

KIRBY J: I just think "drunk" is a label and I am a little worried about - it is not necessary to put that label. It is just that they were sufficiently affected by alcohol to affect their capacity to drive.

MR JACKSON: Yes.

KIRBY J: "A drunk" has all sorts of baggage with it.

HAYNE J: Perhaps "hammered" is the more modern expression, Mr Jackson, or "well and truly hammered".

MR JACKSON: I am indebted to your Honour.

KIRBY J: I do not know any of these expressions.

McHUGH J: No, no. Justice Hayne must live a very different life to the sort of life we lead.

KIRBY J: I have never heard that word "hammered" before, never. Not before this very minute.

The Importance of Being Earnest

The Production
Ridiculusmus has devised a farcical version of Oscar Wilde’s most famous play, The Importance of Being Earnest, in which two actors portray the entire cast aided only by much cross-dressing and the occasional hand puppet. With cunningly precise direction by Jude Kelly, this is an interpretation that’s so flamboyant and full of Wildean wit that there’s no doubt Wilde would have loved it.

The multiple roles, which rely on an absurdist, almost schizoid performance style, are heralded by a cacophony of music genres ranging from 80s pop to nursery rhymes and Wagnerian opera – all played against a garishly kitsch Victoriana set. Toying with the ideas of performance that underlie Wilde’s dissection of 19th century British high-society, Ridiculusmus ultimately unmasks the roles that social hierarchy and status dictate.

情人的眼淚

為什麼要對你掉眼淚
你難道不明白是為了愛
只有那有情人眼淚最珍貴
一顆顆眼淚都是愛 都是愛

為什麼要對你掉眼淚
你難道不明白是為了愛
要不是有情郎跟我要分開
我眼淚不會掉下來 掉下來

好春常在 春花正開
你怎捨得說再會
我在深閨 望穿秋水
你不要忘了我情深 深如海

為什麼要對你掉眼淚
你難道不明白是為了愛
要不是有情郎跟我要分開
我眼淚不會掉下來 掉下來

我眼淚不會掉下來 掉下來
