I’m sure the State Government and various other parties are keen to vamp up the life-blood of Hindley Street and the West End precinct. Well, how about building a comfortable amphitheatre in Light Square and putting on a free production every afternoon? Firstly, it would be great calling card for Adelaide, at no real extravagant cost; a year-round open theatre would also be a great training ground for young/aspiring actors and provide a venue for schools to send their students to enjoy professional productions. The content, of course, would need to be gleaned from the classics: W. Shakespeare, H. Ibsen, T. Williams, R Kalinowski, A. Miller, and D. Williamson . . .
I think such an undertaking would be a way to maintain a permanent standing as the Arts capital of Australia and really add to the daily cultural life of the city.
P.S. Can something be done about the right turning light from Montefiore Rd onto War Memorial Drive? Ridiculous.
About Me
- Kym Packer
- Adelaide, Australia
- After years of writing letters to The Advertiser, our local newspaper in Adelaide, South Australia, rejoicing with the odd one or two getting published, but seeing the majority never make it into the old black/white and read all over, I have decided to publish all my attempts to get the Editor's attention and outsmart those fine, fine journalists that work for Rupert Murdoch at News Limited, who have told me that my sentences are far too long for the attention span of their readership.

i find your post to be in extreme bad taste, and am this close *holds two fingers very close together* to reporting you to whoever looks after this kind of stuff.
using a blog to promote your green light agenda.. indeed.
You want life blood, how about just plain old blood sport - colosseum style? Two men enter, one man leaves etc...
I propose a death match between Pat Conlon and Michael Atkinson. The winner gets a shot at Kevin Folley.
