On The Radio – Rhinestone Rex

Last weekend, you may recall, I went to see the new David Williamson play which I continue to rave about.

The premise for the play is the apparent odd coupling of a country music loving tradesman and a classical music loving woman whose kitchen he is renovating.

Glen Hazeldine plays Rhinestone Rex, the tradie who used to be a country music performer, and who still appears on community radio. Georgie Parker plays MIss Monica, the classical musician forced to “retire” because of problems with her hands.

I ended up appearing briefly on Saturday Night Country on ABC Local Radio tonight reviewing the play.
