Theatrical Trailblazer - Reg Livermore - Part 2

Published: Sept. 22, 2019, 8 p.m.

b"In this companion episode we continue our conversation with Australian Theatrical Icon, Reg Livermore.\\nIn part one he discussed growing up in a conservative 1950's Sydney, his training, his influences and his many forays into Musical Theatre.\\nIn part two he reflects on his long career and examines his series of ground-breaking one-man shows, beginning with Betty Blokk Buster and continuing through Wonder Woman and Sacred Cow.\\nLivermore is a theatrical beast, a mischief, a maverick and a larrikin clown - he is a chameleon who has rightly earned the accolade of Legend. He is a composite super-talent informed by burlesque, vaudeville, music hall, weimar cabaret, the ballet, the opera, the classics and Gilbert & Sullivan - all forms have contributed to a most unique and vital talent.\\nIt's a career of peaks and troughs, thrills and spills. The performer has not only seized opportunities but created them. Our rich theatre heritage is just that because of his countless contributions, on stage and off. He has offered us a chance to laugh at ourselves, embrace the outrageous and be changed by a reverberant and authentic repertoire of dynamic performances.\\nAvailable in iTunes, Spotify and Whooshkaa."
