Thank you for the music…well, TV

work 4 Comments by Aleisha

What a fun two and a half years I’ve had travelling the country and the globe, meeting, eating, interviewing, dancing, experiencing, laughing, feeling tired, trying to memorise scripts while standing in some exotic or bizzaro locations, being tongue tied, doing my hair and make-up in porta-offices, forgetting names, running for planes, sleeping in cars, did [...]

Today I posted a ‘call out’ on Source Bottle. The web site you use, when you want to get something done. I was thinking about my clothes…not my own clothes but what I wear on air… on the telly. It always panics me a bit trying to decide what to wear and when and I [...]

I’m of the belief that when you’re given the opportunity to go to New York (or anywhere for that matter) on a whim, you bloody well take it. No thinking, just say YES. Last week my boss Pam called me with an unusual proposition…to dash over to the US and back in three days to [...]

Auditions.

I had an audition for a TV ad last week. I felt confident. I wore my good jeans….the ones that both level and lift.  Not too much make up and a flat shoe. It was at a casting agency where I had been before… where at the conclusion of my last audition, one of the [...]

Paper dresses

IMG_1377

I visited a hip exhibition at Chadstone today for The Circle, that featured 32 contemporary paper dresses. Yep, dresses made of paper that for about ten minutes in history in the 1960s where SUPER popular. They were cheap, colourful and fabulous and after you wore them you could pop them on the wall as art [...]

Think of the children

So it seems that this week my  gig at The Circle primarily revolves around me touching a lot of animals and being harassed by bogan kids both on and off the clock. Here’s me with dolphins A koala (looks like a lot of  revolting, fake smile, old school photos I had from high school…minus the [...]

We’re baaaaack! Yep, if you missed us in March (we sold out!), don’t distress, you can pop along to either The Butterfly Club in Melbourne or The Peacock Theatre in Hobart to see Dan Burt and myself on the stage, talking…..and doing other things (non sexual). I’ve bee internetless over the past few weeks (minor [...]

Daniel and Aleisha

I’ve had my head down and bum up lately, preparing for my upcoming show He says/She says with the magnificently clever Daniel Burt. We worked together at 7pm Project and now we don’t but we like each other and have decided to take the performance plunge and split the bill at the Butterfly Club in [...]

Pregnant pause

Today I undid…or at least had a momentary hiccup… after all of those months of training and sugar avoiding and running and torture…all in the space of ten seconds…all for a gag on the telly. If you ask me to decorate cupcakes of course my natural instinct is to raise the icing bag to mouth [...]

wombat

The past No Comments by Aleisha

I got to meet a massively adorbs wombat on The Circle today. His name is Cobbler. His mamma got hit by a car and someone found him in her pouch. I was fully prepared to kidnap Cobbler and move him into our apartment. Sure we’d probably have a urine problem on our hands but Cobbler [...]
