This morning we headed down to the @sydneyoperahouse to see @shakeandstir’s production of “James and the Giant Peach.” I really liked their take on it! They modernised a few things (Aunt Sponge wearing Crocs is inspired costume design) and excised a couple characters (vale Ladybug and Silkworm!), but they kept the weirder bits of Dahl’s story without sanding it down too much. I also thought the use of the rotating stage with animated projections and multiple trap doors was genius, and it’s probably the only way you could bring a story like this to life. We also visited the fat sea lion sunbathing on the steps outside, and we had lunch at @a.p.bread in the city. Lovely day. ❤️🍑

Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
