We travel from our Island, with the blessing of our mountain, to the big city of Melbourne, for the Parliament of World Religions, expecting 8000 to 10000 people. The main theme is indigenous perspectives, with subthemes of youth, sacred music, and divine feminine. We were granted a slot to present a reading of our play, Darwin in the Dreaming. We've pulled together a few really great actors, including Brian Lipson, British trained, has performed in London and has many awards from Melbourne theatre. Also James Saunders, now in a one-man show called Harry Harlow, and Rudie Chapman as "Sarah" and then the indigenous woman - who should it be? We talked with about a dozen, and decided that the best exponent of indigenous thinking/feeling/being, and one who knows the play the best - is Lila! We shall see how it goes - the whole shebang starts this evening.
