In 2019, Eddie Perfect was living in New York, having recently been nominated for a Tony Award for writing the musical version of Beetlejuice. The critics didn’t necessarily love the show – some hated it – but the fans came in droves, making Beetlejuice a cult hit. It seems even when he’s hated by some, Perfect is usually extremely well-liked. But that may not last long. In the upcoming run of 9 to 5 The Musical, he’s set to play the despised, womanising boss and, in our cover story this week, says he hopes it’s a wake-up call to the existing sexism in our society. ●

t’s not every day an Australian bridal designer receives a call from Paris Haute Couture Week asking them to whip up a 32-piece collection with five months’ warning, but that’s exactly what happened to South Yarra couturier Alin Le’ Kal. “I remember taking the call in my office and thinking, is this a scam?” Le’ Kal says. “My assistant said, ‘Alin you have to take this call, it’s serious.’ “It was a surreal moment and I had an anxiety attack in the corner of my office because it felt unbelievable.” Prior to his 2019 Paris debut, Le’ Kal created bespoke bridal gowns and dressed celebrities including Kelly Rowland and Paris Hilton for red-carpet events. Growing up in Melbourne’s northern suburbs, Le’ Kal fell in love with women’s evening dresses as a child while attending Middle Eastern weddings with his Lebanese family – events where women prided themselves on glamour, the fantastical and elaborate.

All that glitters FASHION Melbourne designer Alin Le’ Kal has
captured the attention of the Paris fashion elite. Wo r d s
“Seeing extravagant women attending these functions is when I found myself looking at their dresses, thinking how I would reshape and re-dress them,” Le’ Kal says. His aunt worked as a seamstress and his uncle was a tailor; seeing them inspired Le’ Kal to do the same. “Seeing the way they constructed garments really set me on my way; but first I had to convince my parents,” he says. While studying fashion at Kangan Institute and then RMIT, Le’ Kal decided to start his own business. He went from designing party dresses for his sister’s friends to 21st parties and engagements.
JA N E R O C CA
“I always knew I wanted to do bridal and evening wear and that happened organically over time,” says Le’ Kal, who used to make dresses in his parent’s house, then a Collingwood studio before his move to South Yarra. Splitting his time between Paris and Melbourne was business as usual pre-pandemic, but these days you’ll mostly find him in Australia. From creating 2022 Australian Eurovision contestant Sheldon Riley’s costume to dressing the stars at the recent Logie Awards (Julia Morris, April Rose Pengilly from Neighbours and Nine’s Leila McKinnon), nothing overwhelms
Le’ Kal, who is happy to get lost in hours of bridal embellishment. But it was tying the knot with his wife Hind Younan in an elaborate wedding at Melbourne’s Plaza Ballroom earlier this year that put his skills and patience to the test. “I made my wife two wedding dresses for the big day,” Le’ Kal says. “We came to an agreement that the wedding was on me and the house – which we are in the process of building – was on her as she’s an architect. “I told her I don’t care about doors, frames and colours, but the wedding, that’s what I want to focus on.” Le’ Kal describes his designs as edgy and timeless, would love to dress Celine Dion or Queen Rania of Jordan, and says a modern bride is willing to break the rules. “The world of social media and Instagram has changed what people perceive as a bridal gown,” he says. “Brides play with blush, nudes and silvers these days – they’ve come into their own style … and it shows.” ●
TELEVISION
Julia Zemiro steps back in time for one last season of Home Delivery. Wo r d s
JA N E R O C CA
N
othing was quite as strange for Julia Zemiro than exploring her own past for the finale of ABC TV’s Home Delivery. “I was extra nervous about doing an episode dedicated to my life as my father recently died and I knew I would get sad – and I did,” Zemiro says. The ninth and final season of the show sees her reflect on the guests who made her laugh and cry over 70 episodes. We grew to love Zemiro, one of Australia’s most successful TV show hosts, on the long-running SBS music game show RocKwiz and adored her wit as co-host of Eurovision with Sam Pang from 2008-2016. She is about to start filming season two of Fisk alongside Kitty Flanagan and Marty Sheargold, and has a new project in the works at SBS. On her own Home Delivery episode, she walks through her life journey being guided by those she trusts, from gardening guru Costas Georgiadis and satirist Mark Humphries to actress Justine Clarke and comedian Judith Lucy. There are tears, solidarity and reflection on how life turned out. “Costa literally and metaphorically holds the silences and sadness with me,” Zemiro says. “We both grew up in Bondi, are similar in age and have that in common. I’m of French descent and he’s Greek, so we had some great multicultural stories we shared.
Down memory lane “Judith Lucy held my hand through my visit to the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne. That was really a reflective time. High school just wasn’t the making of me; acting school was.” Zemiro learned to embrace the silence when interviewing others on Home Delivery, revealing it took her a season and a half of filming the show to learn to keep her mouth shut when people tried to answer questions. Her guests this season include TV icon Ray Martin, pop singer Marcia Hines and choreographer and director Stephen Page.
She had met Martin once before briefly while filming SBS’s Room 101. Being able to share his life journey from his childhood home to now is a moment she’ll always hold close. “Ray is someone who is so at ease with himself and the world and was proud of showing us all the different places he grew up,” Zemiro says. “He was so open about the domestic violence his mother suffered at the hands of her husband, and how they had to run away twice to find peace and freedom. His three sisters were older and stayed in Sydney.
“He talked about walking his mum home from her factory job every night when he was a teenager, just to keep her company. I bet the compassion we see in his interviews all stems from here.” If the sky was the limit, and ABC budgets allowed it, Zemiro would have booked a ticket to Iceland to do a Home Delivery with Bjork. “I love her music and it shows so much of who she is and what she feels,” she says. “Bjork talks about the terrain of Iceland and how it forged her personality, and I would have loved to have gone to the edge of a cliff to talk about her song Hyperballad and find out how the very femaledriven society shaped her.” ● HOME DELIVERY \ Sundays 7.40pm on ABC.

Perfecting the part Much-loved actor Eddie Perfect hopes his villainous role in 9 to 5 The Musical will get audiences talking.

COVER STORY
E
ddie Perfect is not used to playing the villain. The prolific actor, composer and writer usually portrays the lovable guy – but in the upcoming Melbourne season of Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 The Musical, his character, the sexist and slimy boss Franklin Hart, is anything but. “He is impossible to like,” says Perfect, who hopes the show will prompt audiences to think about sexism in Australia. “I think Australia has a problem with sexism that exceeds other countries and cities I have lived in,” he says. “You see sexism at work, in sport and at schools in Australia – there’s something wrong with our attitudes towards women and it’s something that needs addressing in a national way. “I have two little girls and I know what boys say to them; they’re hearing those sexist comments from somewhere and it needs to stop. Sexism isn’t the same in cities like Amsterdam or New York City – we have some work to do, that’s for sure.”
“It’s what I really needed to feel like life is back on track for me.” The 1980 American comedy movie 9 to 5, which starred Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton, follows three working women who live out their fantasies to get even with their misogynistic boss. The movie pushed Dolly Parton firmly into the mainstream in America, and she’s now the brains behind the show’s revival on stage, unearthing the storyline for a new audience. Although it’s a screwball comedy, it’s still everserious in its portrayal of sexism in the workplace. In the Australian stage show, the three female leads are played by Casey Donovan, Erin Clare and Marina Prior. “It’s very much their show and these women are amazing,” Perfect says. “I did find playing a villain super challenging because there is an acting gene within me where I’d like audiences to like me, but right now they need to despise me.”
The show won the 2009 Helpmann Award for Best New Australian Work, and Perfect says he always felt a connection to the spin king. “My relationship with Shane is incredibly strange,” he reflects. “I didn’t know him personally, but my show brought me in contact with him. “Shane had just retired from cricket and was regarded as a punchline in the glossies and tabloid press at the time. There was a lot of moral outrage and judgment from the conservative voices in Australia, and through writing the musical, I felt great sympathy, respect and warmth for Shane and I really wanted to humanise him.” A week after the show’s debut, Perfect was asked to sing the national anthem at the MCG Boxing Day Test. “I was like, ‘Wow, yeah, of course!’ I was in my 20s and excited,” he recalls. “I was standing in the middle of the MCG and Shane ran up to me and said, ‘Best of luck for the song,’ and he ran off to commentate the game.
“You see sexism at work, in sport and at schools ... it’s something that needs addressing.” EDDIE PERFECT
From playing Offspring’s Mick Holland in the early 2000s to his hit musical comedy show Shane Warne: The Musical in 2008, Perfect has long been a household favourite. In 2018, he moved to New York with his family while he composed the scores for King Kong and Beetlejuice, staying until the pandemic shut down Broadway. Being able to perform 9 to 5 The Musical with an abundance of crew and actors who don’t need to wear masks is about as normal as it gets for Perfect, who was craving the old way of life. He too sweated out lockdowns in Melbourne, home-schooling his daughters and trying to find the light in the darkness. “Connecting to an audience every single night is such a buzz, from the energy and feedback you get from the audience,” Perfect says.
Working alongside Marina Prior saw him look at his theatre career in a new light. “Marina fascinates me because I grew up knowing her as a star and have loved working with her,” Perfect says. “She strikes me as a person who is happy to be where she is all the time and that is rare to find. It’s a hard way to be in this business yet for her she’s naturally that way.” It was while queuing up at a Brisbane bottle shop with his wife Lucy last month that Perfect found himself reminiscing about the passing of Shane Warne, who died in March this year. While Perfect didn’t know Warne personally, he describes his relationship to the late cricket legend as that akin to a biographer, after spending three years researching and writing Shane Warne: The Musical, which premiered in 2008.

“Like everybody else, I found him to be generous, warm and interested – it’s not always that stars are interested in what you have to say.” While not ruling out a Broadway return, Perfect is content with his life in Melbourne – for now. “When you start out in this biz, you always have your eyes set on the pasture over the fence and that was me for a while,” he says. “That can lead to a constant sense of displacement and never feeling contentment, but it drives your career, of course. “I don’t have a five-year plan – never been that sort of guy – but doing 9 to 5 feels very repairing for me. It’s the best health retreat for a theatrical person like me.” ● 9 TO 5 THE MUSICAL \ Opens July 10 at the State Theatre.

Losing the booze A growing trend in tipples makes Dry July a breeze. KI M WI L S O N

our Pillars co-founder and distiller Cameron Mackenzie says he would never in his wildest dreams have imagined making an alcohol-free product when he started out in 2013. “But as you grow older and wiser, booze is not always your go-to and you need a quality alternative,” Mackenzie says. The Healesville gin distiller is one of a growing breed of alcohol brands offering zero-alcohol options.
After two years of crafting, testing, tasting and perfecting, the boutique brand has created two alcohol-free beverages based on their most popular and iconic gins – Bandwagon Dry and Bloody Bandwagon. “Bandwagon Dry has been modelled on our original gin, Rare Dry Gin, which has become something of a benchmark for modern, citrus-forward gins with a combination of Middle Eastern, Asian and Australian botanicals.

While some people are drinking zero-alcohol alternatives to cut back their intake, others such as former Miss Universe Australia and mental health advocate Olivia Molly Rogers decided to give up drinking permanently just over a year ago. “At first I was just going to do 30 days when I realised that alcohol was having a negative impact on my life and my mental health and my relationship with (husband) Justin,” Rogers says. “I thought I should take a break and that break turned into a year and a bit. I just realised how much better I felt without it, so I haven’t gone back.” In that time Rogers has seen a substantial increase in brands offering good quality alternatives, both in bottle shops and bars. “I’ve found over the year that the non-alcoholic list at places has definitely grown and it’s now rare that a place will have only soft drinks on offer,” she says.
BENITO MARTIN
“In Bloody Bandwagon, we have created an alcohol-free base of highly concentrated shiraz and then added complexity with the addition of many of our favourite botanicals including Tasmanian pepperberry leaf and several types of citrus.” Consumers are increasingly embracing booze-free options with the no and low-alcohol sector expected to outpace the total alcohol category by 2025, according to Dan Murphy’s managing director Alex Freudmann. “When it comes to taste, it’s not a compromise to choose a zero-alcohol option any more,” Freudmann says. “There is some great innovation coming out of Australian producers in this space, and so many delicious flavours, concepts and textures to discover. The same amount of passion, hard work and craftsmanship go into making the new wave of zero-alcohol drinks as their alcoholic counterparts.”
“I liked to drink rose, champagne, gin and tonic, a cocktail here and there and an Aperol spritz. I’ve found good alternatives for each of the drinks that I previously had before.” According to stats from drinks and hospitality business Endeavour Group, sales of zero-alcohol products have grown more than 150 per cent
in the past 24 months across Dan Murphy’s and BWS, with 329 different products now on offer. Freudmann says the rise of zeroalcohol drinks is part of a wider trend in which Australians are drinking less but better. “Zero-alcohol beer makes up the majority of all sales in the category, thanks to new technologies and brewing processes, which have made it possible for brewers to make better tasting beers in recent years that really replicate the flavour of their alcoholic counterparts,” he says. As Dry July kicks off, Rogers says it’s the perfect time to refrain from booze for a month or more, particularly because setting a goal can help you stay on the wagon and not be tempted at social events. “If you stick to something, then you’re more likely to actually have a whole month off and you might surprise yourself and actually enjoy having time off alcohol.” ●

When architecture nerds get all giggly about MCM, they’re not converting Roman numerals into 1900 and discussing Federation style. MCM is short for mid-century modern, and some astonishing examples are found in Studley Park. It’s here that some young architects bought land in the 1950s and ’60s and designed innovative homes for their families. This address – nestled tidily on 1191 square metres five minutes’ walk from the park – has been an MCM icon for almost 60 years. On an elevated main level with a garage and cellar below, the double-fronted house forms an L shape with living and family areas opening to a poolside patio. Beyond the pool, the north-facing garden is the classic “void and mass” – a huge lawn framed by mature trees, ideal for stopping footies from flying into the neighbours’ yards. Four double bedrooms, zoned in east and west wings, have full-height windows, and two have en suites. So sets the scene for an MCM idyll – except this house has just been renovated in a fresh interpretation of ’60s style. When the owners bought the property in 2020 they asked Phil Snowdon of Ola Architecture Studio to transform the interior. Timber cabinetry, terrazzo bathrooms, oak flooring and some far-out and groovy tilework in op-art black, white and grey brings the house right up to date with contemporary requirements while respecting the heritage. A white marble staircase, via magnolias, gives a cool grandeur to the facade. Vintage hunters will admire the fully glazed, fluted-glass entry, which leads to a black marble hall.
