Well October 2014 was a very busy month for me and for Graham. We hardly saw each other this past month, I had lots of work commitments, Graham traveled to Sydney to see family. I managed a show for Buzz and a 2 week schools tour, then wrapped up the month with Proximity Festival and a 30 Year Celebration for Buzz Dance Theatre.
Graham went home to spend time with his family this month. He had a nice visit with the Buchanan and Weaire family. He got to play some golf and enjoyed great food and good wines at home with Karen and Stewart. We are looking forward to spending time with them this holiday season.
Buzz Dance Theatre celebrated 30 years on October 31st. It was also to mark the end of an era for our brand. In January Buzz will turn into a new company. 30 years is a long run for any small to medium non for profit arts company. Its been an honour working at Buzz and being part of the dance legacy in Perth for the past 5 years. This is the Buzz team from 2014. Nicole, Pippa and myself.

This happened in late September while visiting our good friend Sarah. Her dog is very patient, and Graham well he's just silly.
Graham did a lot of the cooking while I was working days and nights in October. Thanks Razza for taking care of me and Kitty. This photo slightly resembles the one of Graham above. It seems we both like the hold animals in the air and pose for pictures.
Me and my old man cat. Kit cat. He's 14!!!!!
Buzz Dane Theatre had a work in the Awesome Festival this year. Its an absolutely amazing festival for kids. I wish Indianapolis had one of these. Please check it out here AWESOME
Buzz performed our primary/elementary school work called Plain Jane.
This year I worked on Proximity Festival for the 3rd consecutive year in a row as the Stage Manager.
Its an annual festival in Perth that see's 12 artists develop and perform intimate performances meant for one audience member at a time. Working on Proximity is an absolute joy. Every year it keeps getting better.
This year we had a performance that involved flowers and it was great to see these beautiful arrangements every night. The venue for this year was the Fremantle Arts Centre. It was the perfect location for the festival and I have no idea how another venue will top it.
Proximity Artists for 2014. Each one a joy to work with.

Dr. Graham even became Proximity's official doctor. This is Graham treating a patient on the dance floor. Even artists need love too.
Stage Manager Mary sitting on the roof of the Fremantle Arts Centre. I love my job because it leads to the most unusual of experiences. Having a performance space on the roof of a heritage building is pretty cool.
November see's life slowing down for us. Thank goodness.
Onwards toward Christmas we go!
Much Love.
Me
