Bulldog Theatre: The Negotiating Table
Posted by evdomada on October 10, 2008
The Bulldog Theatre had its opening night of the The Negotiating Table last night at the Sidetrack Shed Theatre. The cast performed to an almost full house, who were entertained with another very-well written story by Alex Lykos. Once again Alex has been able to tell a story that comes from the neighborhoods we can all relate to and about people we can associate with and understand their personal struggle.
The Negotiating Table explores and provides an insight into what really goes on behind closed doors in the Australian film industry. The story is told through the experiences of struggling young Australian-Greek actor Nick, who has written a script that the industry wants but at a cost.
Nick is played by Billy Soulis who managed to capture the hearts of the audience with a great performance. His character is a young man who wants to prove to himself and to his father that he can fulfill his dreams. However before he even commences his journey, he is confronted with decisions that challenge his beliefs and ideals. He is faced with situations that not only force him to take a hard look within himself but also question who is truly trying there to help him succeed and those who want to take advantage of him.
Apart from the lead role that was played very well by Billy Soulis, the play has a great cast including notable performances by Gavin Williams, Nicholas Baldas, Barbara Gouskos and Manny Katts.
The Negotiating Table will be performed at The Sidetrack Shed Theatre from October 9 through to the 26th October. Performance times for Thursday through to Saturday are at 8pm and Sunday at 6pm. Ticket prices are $22 and $18 for Concession and Thursday nights are prices are 2 for 1 and groups of 10+ get concession price.
