JACQUELINE MAZLOUM

As a big fan of our Australian entertainment industry, it’s been particularly pleasing to see how local TV productions have been able to rebound from the setbacks of last year, or find workarounds. This week’s cover star, renowned screen and stage performer Lisa McCune, discusses how returning to work gave her purpose and how, despite being a self-described fish out of water in a comedy show, she’s loving the change of scene. And I find her approach to giving anything a go particularly encouraging during a year in which so many of us are taking stock and rebuilding. ●

COVER STORY

Something to smile about The world of comedy is proving to be Lisa McCune’s happy place.

I

t was during daily pre-dawn drives to Coburg from her bayside home that Lisa McCune got her acting groove back. Those 5am work starts – to film a new season of the comedy How to Stay Married – were the first time since last year’s double lockdown that she left the house for business.

“I really am a fish out of water doing comedy,” says McCune. “But I love to explore something new.

I’m the sort of person who will give anything a go.”

The Network 10 show is filmed inside an architect-owned home in Coburg, which McCune likens to a Brady Bunch home equivalent, and it’s this setting the fictitious Butler family use as their backdrop.

It’s where she delivers the deadpan punchlines as Em, an anxious mother of two married to Greg [Peter Helliar] for 15 years.

Wo r d s

It’s a stark change from the world of theatre which audiences are used to seeing McCune shine in, from starring in plays and musicals such as The Sound of Music, Hamlet and The King and I. But she’s enjoying dabbling in comedy and, for now, it’s where the work is.

“I remember when Pete rang to tell me we could go ahead with season two. I was like, ‘Yes, count me in, mate,’” says McCune, sounding more Em than herself.

“Being on set was so joyful.

Everybody was happy to be there; nobody was whinging because we were excited to be back doing something we love. It was truly a joyful moment,” she says of her eight weeks of 12-hour days during February and March.

home in Sandringham she owned with ex-husband Tim Disney and bought a new one nearby.

“Having teenagers who are so entrenched in that bayside area is why I wanted to stay local a while longer,” she says.

McCune was performing in the Sydney Opera House season of Hamlet, playing Hamlet’s mother, when it was cut short last year. It was the last time she performed in a theatre. Instead of getting on a plane to get home, she hired a car.

“March was an eerie time.

Lockdown was just starting, and everything was so uncertain. I was too scared to get on a plane, so I drove back.”

At her new home, McCune fills her days rearranging furniture and

flowers. I plan to have them hanging up soon.”

Inside her garage, which will be knocked down with the new renovations, you’ll find chairs hanging from the ceiling. It looks like the backstage of a theatre company with big old trunks to be found; they’re a nod to many stage memories.

She still owns the gold slippers she wore in The King and I in 2014. “I can’t throw them out – they’re worn out, and I went through so many pairs. So much work went into making those shoes.”

While she admits she has let go of a lot of possessions with the move, like throwing out boxes of old media clippings she didn’t need anymore, there are some things she has kept.

“I have a gorgeous letter from Australian actress June Salter, who I

“There is something really beautiful and honest in comedy compared to other work I have done.”

COVER IMAGE Ginger & Smart dress, Witchery heels.

McCune met Helliar on Rove in the 2000s, which led to them working together on the ABC’s It’s a Date in 2013 and developing chemistry.

“There is something really beautiful and honest in comedy compared to other work I have done,” says McCune, a 10-time Logie award winner for dramatic work.

“I think his [Helliar’s] show resonates with so many because it really is relatable; it’s light comedy.

We all can relate to an everyday moment in there.

“Em is also a closer fit to me than the characters I played on Blue Heelers or Sea Patrol.”

It took a pandemic for McCune to make drastic life changes she might have delayed if her work schedule remained hectic. She sold the family

objects, preferring white noise to music playing and the smell of food cooking as she potters around.

“Home became more of a priority for me,” she says. “I also just turned 50, and it gave me a chance to reevaluate life and where I’m at.”

There are plans to turn this home into what might feel more like a gallery space – she’s in the middle of conversations with builders to work it all out. She enjoys flicking through piles of The World of Interiors and House magazines for inspiration and is trying to embrace a minimalist approach to living.

But her op-shopping habit might just bring that plan undone.

“I have this bizarre fascination with scouring op shops right now and finding beautiful old paintings of

worked with on The Sound of Music.

In the letter, she wishes me good luck with the new baby. She is no longer with us anymore. And it’s things like that which are special to me, those connections to people and places, that is what is important.”

As far as what the future holds work-wise, McCune is happy to take a back seat for now. Returning to comedy was the happy pill she needed after months away from the limelight.

“I haven’t been able to step back into the things I did last year because I now have a son in year 12 and that is taking priority for me. That’s the life of an actor: I don’t know where I’ll end up next.” ● HOW TO STAY MARRIED \ Airs Tuesday nights on 10.

am unsure whether I feel worse for The Albert Park Hotel or myself. A few days after the 138-year-old pub reopened in March 2020, COVID patient 16 disembarked a plane from Singapore and promptly attended one of the venue’s first events. It shut for two weeks, reopening just in time for the restaurant lockdown.

Then there’s me. It's a stunner of a day, the dregs of summer in autumn. We’re at the hotel restaurant, Happy Valley, and I can’t order the Peking duck which takes three days to make and mirrors a 600-year-old recipe from the Ming Dynasty. You see, I married a pescatarian. I can’t

When a supple, springy egg-white omelette arrives in a spanner crab shell, all buttery meat and seduction, I forget about my lack of meat. It’s the same for tender salt-and-pepper calamari beneath a tropical snowfall of coconut flakes, bird's eye chilli and fried curry leaves. We double down on prawns: Spencer Gulfs in weighty har gow dumplings and a Skull Island special fried in salted egg yolk.

The oversized crayfish and scallop dumpling is worth every one of its 13 dollars. It’s only after we’ve shared it that I learn its pool of “superior broth” is simmered for 24 hours; a mixture of dried fish, shrimp and – whoops – various meats.

1R AUSTRALIA \ Recently launching its first boutique club in South Yarra, 1R will soon become your new favourite — specifically designed for those looking for a high-intensity workout with a point of difference.

Founded in 2015 in London, James Balfour (son of Fitness First founder Mike Balfour) shook up the tired and dated gym model. 1R has three training concept methods: reshape, rumble and reformer.

Its studio, designed by Australian architects Foolscap Studios, is far from average. Each class runs for 45 minutes.

“From the moment you walk into the club, you will become immersed in an experience,” says Amanda Maclean, 1R CEO. “Australians will soon discover an entirely new, intense and addictive way of working out.” ● 1raustralia.com

FEATURE HOUSE SOUTH YARRA \ 273A DOMAIN ROAD 2

Of all the places in South Yarra where a chic apartment might be lurking, the building at the corner of Domain and Avoca is probably the least likely.

It’s mid-Victorian and demure, far in time and style from the high-rise thickets that house thousands of the postcode’s young professionals. But at the top of its narrow staircase are a vast living area with bay windows, a balcony and a city view, and two capacious bedrooms. In 2014 it won the heart of a young professional living opposite, and he bought it.

“I’m a country boy,” he says, “and when I left boarding school I stayed in Melbourne. If you’re going to live here you might as well be in the thick of it, and the buzz and vibe of South Yarra are incredible.

“To be able to jump on the train and go to the footy or tennis has been one of the best things about living here.”

Now a married father of two, he’s reluctantly giving up his eyrie for something bigger. But this sunny first-floor residence is just right for a couple or one-child family who value a 20-minute walk to the city and a five-minute stroll to the Botanic Gardens.

The house was divided into two apartments in 2007 and renovated, creating a large open plan on the north side and bedrooms and mosaic bathrooms to the south.

The living-dining area is striking in white against japanned floorboards and has an original brick-arch fireplace. The bay window has a deep sill where you can bask and read, or watch the neighbours’ Siamese cat slinking along high

ledges. A tall bifold conceals the laundry.

The laminate kitchen, in good condition, has Smeg appliances and a calacatta marble counter.

The main bedroom suite here is impressively spacious.

Dark-brown carpet complements the wardrobe’s dark timber doors, and sash windows open to the balcony above Avoca Street. The fully tiled en suite has a walk-in shower and a window. Bedroom two, a smaller double, has a wardrobe and enjoys use of the skylit main bathroom, which has a shower above the bath. The property has intercom security and a lock-up garage. ● ALISON BARCLAY property@domainreview.com.au Agent: Belle Property, Joe Eason 0437 900 005 Price: $1.9 million-$2.05 million Auction: 1pm, May 15

Elwood’s beautiful beach, finest cafes, restaurants and boutique shopping are just moments away and the home is an easy stroll to the suburb’s schools.
