The local children were fascinated and delighted by the dubious old man, who had the Mums and Dads chuckling as much as the kids. As usual, Katoomba Street saw thousands of people amble by, admiring …
The colourful ladies from Umbrella Theatre got all gussied up last sweaty, humid Sunday. Skeletal figures, an underwater goddess, a curious doll and of course puppets all made an appearance in that picturesque Redfern alley way.

The fantastic Dan loaned us use of the Lairhouse which was to be our studio for the day. Yes folks, Umbrella Theatre will be …

Happy New Year! And what a New Year celebration it was!
