BURLINSON RETURNS AS FRANK SINATRA

03

SHANNON COCHRANE chats with actor Tom Burlinson about his love of Frank Sinatra and his return to the acclaimed tribute show he wrote nearly 15 years ago...

H

e’s best known as ‘The Man from Snowy River’ but multi-talented performer Tom Burlinson is set to ditch the riding gear in favour of a dapper suit in homage to the legendary Frank Sinatra.

The renowned Australian actor will be staging his show ‘Frank – A Life in Song’ in venues across the country, with his first performance set for Penrith Panthers on Saturday, May 11.

Burlinson is ready to don his finest garb and bring ‘Frank’ back to the stage after a hiatus from the successful show, which he wrote and debuted to rave reviews in 1998.

Critics and audiences alike enjoyed the old-school magic of this biographical musical.

A long-time fan of the one-of-a-kind Sinatra, Burlinson wrote the show and curated 30 of his greatest hits with the result being a classy, thoroughly enjoyable two hours of entertainment.

Renowned for his impressive musical range, Sinatra mastered upbeat swing songs as well as heartfelt ballads and this show displays his full repertoire; with the song list featuring classic tracks such as ‘Come Fly With Me’, ‘I’ve Got You Under My Skin’, ‘The Lady is a Tramp’, ‘Fly Me to the Moon’, ‘Mack the Knife’, ‘My Way’, ‘That’s Life’ and ‘New York, New York’.

“It’s a show in celebration of the music and career of the legendary Sinatra… so we have many of the great Sinatra hits from throughout his career,” Burlinson said.

“We have an eight piece band with us and in between the songs I tell a sort of brief history of biographical details of Sinatra’s life from the late 1930’s through to the end of his career in

the 1990’s so it’s quite a story.”

With an impressively long career behind him, Burlinson is known as one of Australia’s most versatile performers and has acted in television shows, films and theatrical productions.

He began his show business career after graduating from the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Arts in 1976, and he credits that education and a good agent when reflecting on his success.

So how did the film star best known for his role in ‘The Man from Snowy River’ come to create and star in a Frank Sinatra tribute show?

“I’ve loved Sinatra’s music since I was a toddler and then really became an avid fan in my late teens,” Burlinson said.

“I found that with some practice and with some study, I could do a fairly decent impression of Sinatra which I didn’t intend to use in my career at all, I was a young actor following my own path and I didn’t want to be a Sinatra impersonator and so it was something that I just really kept for my own enjoyment.”

Despite this, he found himself writing a song about Sinatra and then being cast as the voice of young Frank in a biographical miniseries produced by Tina Sinatra.

From there, he began crafting ‘Frank – A Life in Song’ which was initially intended to be a small production with only 12 shows at Sydney’s Seymour Centre.

Instead, it was so successful that it went on for 12 years and was even taken overseas to Canada and Las Vegas.

Stepping into the shoes of Sinatra is a difficult task, considering how well-loved and iconic the singer was, but Burlinson has his act

There’s a fine line between that, pretending to be him and not... well-refi ned.

“Part of it is there is a natural similarity in our voices in terms of the range; when he’s straining up high or trying to get down to the low notes, I’m sort of in the same position vocally and there’s also a similarity in tone,” he said.

But there was some work to be done to master Sinatra’s idiosyncrasies.

“It did become a study for me of where he breathes and how long he holds the notes and that distinctive phrasing that Sinatra developed in his singing. It takes a lot of practice because he was a master of breath control and also of interpretation of lyrics which is a big part of it,” he said.

Burlinson added that despite the show

being a tribute, he is not actually trying to impersonate him.

“I’m not pretending to be him but there’s certainly an element of giving an impression of what his performance style and vocal style was like and there’s a fine line between that, pretending to be him and not, it’s still me singing the songs but in the Sinatra style.”

Tom Burlinson will star in ‘Frank - A Life in Song’ at the Evan Theatre, Penrith Panthers on Saturday, May 11 at 8pm. Tickets are $41.50. For bookings or more information, call 4720 5555 or visit www.penrith. panthers.com.au.

MIGHT AS WELL BE THE REAL THING

E

verybody knows country music queens Dolly Parton, Shania Twain and Patsy Cline and now their timeless music will be brought alive on stage in ‘The Ladies of Country’ tribute show.

The show, which comes direct from sell-out concerts in the United States, will be performed at Blacktown Workers Club on Saturday, May 25.

With powerful vocals and spot-on costuming, ‘The Ladies of Country’ are set to take on the hits of Dolly, Shania and Patsy and will awe fans of these iconic country divas with their stunning performance.

Each of the three women are seasoned performers, with Wynonah Dove Bush playing Dolly Parton, Kelly Smith as Shania Twain and Sherrill Douglas as Patsy Cline. ‘The Ladies of Country’ will be taking their show across the country, with this being their second visit down under after a successful tour in 2012.

According to Wynonah Dove Bush, who lights up the stage as Dolly Parton, audience members won’t be disappointed with the show, which has been revamped since last year’s tour. “We have a wonderful, interactive show this time‌ we had a great show last time, but it’s going to be a little more interactive for audiences,â€? she said. “We’ve got some surprises in store, we’re going to bring a few audience volunteers up on stage to participate with us. “And we’ve got a nice ending this year, we decided we wanted to pay tribute to some of your great Australian talent that you have down here so the three of us are going to be doing a Kasey Chambers and Catherine Britt song to finish up the show. “I’ve been a huge Kasey fan for about 10 years now.â€?

While the performers have great chemistry and stage presence under the spotlight, Bush

said that they also get along well off-stage. “We’re all hillbilly country girls so we work very well together, we’ve got great personalities and we love each other and we’ve got a mutual respect for our acts and what we do. We get along great and we hope that translates well on stage,� she said.

Bush initially began working in tribute shows after she started her career as a singersongwriter and was told she sounded similar to her childhood idol, Dolly Parton. “The act itself, with the vocals and the personality, that stuff fit right in fine and I fell into place with that,� she explained. “The hard part for me was looking like Dolly because I’m five feet tall, we’re both the same height, and I was blessed up top so I didn’t have to have any surgery, thank goodness, but that’s kinda where it stops.�

Bush said that it has taken a bit of work to ensure she looks identical to her childhood icon on stage. “I’m black headed and kind of a toy boy farm girl so it was a stretch for me to have to work on the wigs and the makeup and the costuming and stuff so it’s fun to kind of step into that role and be that but in real life I’m not much like that at all,� she said.

With each star of ‘The Ladies of Country’ having so much dedication and talent, the show is bound to be a fun-filled night, which Bush hopes the audience enjoys. “I want to invite everyone to come out, I think they’re going to have a wonderful time, they’re going to get a definite dose of hillbillyism,� she said. ‘The Ladies of Country’ direct from Vegas, will play at the Blacktown Workers Club on May 25.

Tickets start at $20 for club members and $25 for visitors.

his film is a sophisticated, dramatic look into society and morality with the main characters, who come from opposite sides of the law, crossing paths throughout the plot.

Ryan Gosling plays Luke Glanton, a motorbike stuntman who gives up his dangerous job when he is told by his exgirlfriend that he is the father of her son.

In an attempt to support his child, Luke gets a job at an auto repair shop but struggles with his low wage and begins robbing banks with his boss.

The pair fly under the radar but eventually Luke comes to the attention of the police, and dies during a chase after being shot by Officer Avery Cross (Bradley Cooper).

Avery is treated like a hero by his fellow officers, but feels guilt over the death.

15 years later, Avery is running for public office and his son AJ is rebelling and meddling in drugs. AJ befriends another teenage boy Jason, who is Luke’s son all grown up, and Avery must deal with the consequences of the past.

hile ‘The Walking Dead’ may be violent, it’s more than just pointless gore and features an intriguing, engaging plot to draw players in.

This game has five parts to it and is set in the same universe as the awardwinning comic book series from Robert Kirkman.

Players will step into the role of Lee Everett, a convicted criminal who has been graced with a second chance at leading a good life in a world that has been shaken by the undead.

Set in a horrific, nightmarish land where corpses frequently return to life and the human survivors are panicked and will do anything to protect themselves, ‘The Walking Dead’ captures Lee’s quest to take care of an orphaned girl Clementine.

In order to truly do well in ‘The Walking Dead’, players will have to use their brains as they interact with their surroundings and make decisions about other characters, items and events. This game is in many ways a classic zombie tale, but it’s anything but brain dead.

s the director of many classic films including ‘Dial M for Murder’, ‘Birds’ and ‘To Catch a Thief’, Alfred Hitchcock lives on in the public imagination as the macabre master of horror who revolutionised film with his techniques.

But Hitchcock also had a personal life which he shared with his wife Alma and this biopic explores the couple’s relationship and the struggles they endure as they each work on their careers.

The film opens with Hitchcock reveling in the success of his film ‘North

by Northwest’ but plagued by concerns that he is losing his spark and talent.

In a bid to do something truly innovative and youthful, he turns down commercially viable, popular film proposals and instead works on adapting a crime novel ‘Psycho’, to the dismay of his colleagues.

Throughout the making of ‘Psycho’, Hitchcock and his wife have marital problems because of the pressure of filming and suspicions of adultery. This film is truly captivating.

e may be best known as the cantankerous Dr House on television, but Hugh Laurie is also a talented musician who will show off his skills on his sophomore album ‘Didn’t It Rain’.

Fresh from the success of his debut album ‘Let Them Talk’, which was a record inspired by a love of New Orleans, Laurie has compiled an album which follows the development of blues music.

He takes on songs from great pioneers such as W.C. Handy with ‘St. Louis Blues’, Jelly Roll Morton on ‘I Hate a Man Like You’ and also more contemporary artists such as Dr John with ‘Wild Honey’ and ‘Changes’ from Alan Price.

‘Didn’t It Rain’ is produced by Grammy Award-winner Joe Henry with the duo creating a smooth, stylish blues album.

Vocals are supported by the talented musicians of the Copper Bottom Band and there are also guest vocal performances from Guatemalan songwriter Gaby Moreno, soul singer Jean McClain and Grammy-winning

blues musician Taj Mahal who teams up with Laurie on a cover of Little Brother Montgomery’s ‘Vicksburg Blues’.

With Laurie having already proven himself a talented, highly listenable musician, ‘Didn’t It Rain’ is sure to be a high quality album.

LAKESIDE RESTAURANT

YELLOWGLEN RE-ENGAGES ITS SPARKLING HERITAGE

by David Ellis

I

t’s not often a wine company will confess up that they’ve let their eye off the ball, but Yellowglen has done just that – and is doing something very positive about it.

“While our commercial tiers have been responsible for the incredible growth of Yellowglen over the past decade, there is one element of our story that has been overlooked in recent years: that is our place as Australia’s premier house of sparkling,” says Managing Director, Michelle Terry.

“So over the past year we’ve reviewed every element of Yellowglen. We’ve reengaged with founder Ian Home to uncover the depth and heritage of the brand, we’ve reviewed our branding and packaging, and we have introduced new wines… including the recent release of the Exceptional Vintage XV wines.”

There’s a 2002, 2004 and a 2012 in this new range. The 2002 is a drop that shows the extraordinary quality Australia can achieve with its sparklings.

As Michelle Terry says: “This is the ultimate showcase of Yellowglen’s hallmark refined and delicate characters, enriched with layered complexity”.

Made with fruit from the Adelaide Hills’ Piccadilly Valley, it was given nine years on lees in bottle in the company’s cold cellars; you’ll find it intense yet elegant, with floral notes leading to a rich and complex palate, and with a delicate bead and fresh, lingering finish. Pay $49.99 for that next, very special, celebration.

One to note: Although it was taken over

by Ferngrove Wines in 2008, Margaret River maker Killerby has continued to concentrate on ‘small winery’ techniques and philosophies that it’s gained an enviable reputation for since its founding in 1973.

And that reputation flows through with the release of their Killerby 2010 Premium Series Chardonnay – a rewarding drop with lime citrus, stonefruit, ginger and zesty lemon flavours, and a long and pleasant finish. A nice drop at $30 to enjoy with crumbed veal cutlets.

ith a glimmering water view and top quality service, Lakeside Restaurant is Penrith’s premier fine dining location.

From the moment you step into Lakeside, you’ll notice the beautiful and classy decor before being greeted and ushered to a seat by one of the friendly waitstaff.

The Lakeside menu has been crafted with care and thought, with an additional degustation menu for those who want to sample a bit of everything.

There are a variety of entrees and starters to begin your evening, from smoked duck to garlic prawns or an antipasto plate. An excellent although very filling choice is the woodfired breads, which are delicious and come served with a selection of rich dips including garlic olive oil, semi-dried tomato tapenade and red capsicum relish.

For the main course, there are plenty of pastas on offer including risotto, spaghettini and ravioli but I couldn’t pass over the amazing gnocchi, which was smooth and came served with parmesan and truffle.

There are also a range of different meat dishes, including prime scotch fillet, lamb rump and chicken involtini. My dining partner decided to be adventurous for the evening and ordered venison. It was seasoned perfectly, cooked medium rare and was incredibly tender with a melt-in-your-mouth quality. It

was served on a bed of subtly sweet beetroot risotto and green beans, which were fresh and complemented the flavours of the venison perfectly.

Lakeside has an excellent menu of sweet delights to tempt your tastebuds for dessert.

There’s a range of cakes including sticky date and flourless chocolate cake and almost all of the desserts are made in house.

My dining partner opted for a delicious lemon meringue pie, which was encased in a wonderful, buttery shortcrust pastry and had a tart passionfruit and lemon curd filling, which cut through the sweetness of the pillowy meringue.

If you’re after something cool to refresh your palate after dinner then why not try the gelato, which comes in many flavours including mango, chocolate and strawberry.

There’s also tea, coffee and other hot drinks for after your meal if you still want to relax and enjoy the restaurant’s lovely view.

With generously portioned and delicious food, impeccable service and an elegant ambience, Lakeside is a hidden gem in Penrith and represents fine dining at its best.

Lakeside Restaurant is located at the Sydney International Regatta Centre, Gate A, Old Castlereagh Road, Penrith. For bookings or more information, call 4729 3222.

News story Centres Lairs Transgression Lament

Channel 10 has picked up the rights to a new American game show called ‘Bet On Your Baby’. The show, which is currently airing in the US, sees parents try to predict what their toddler will do when presented with certain challenges, such as stacking cookies or knocking down blocks. I must admit it does sound horribly entertaining.

CHATTER ON THE BOX with Nathan Taylor

F

ans of axed soap ‘Days Of Our Lives’ may not have to wait too long before it’s back on air. Rumours are rife that it will be back on television very soon with a deal to be struck with a commercial network and not Pay TV. Channel Nine cancelled ‘Days Of Our Lives’ late last month after broadcasting the show for 45 years, which devastated loyal fans.

American TV show ‘Dallas’ has been renewed for a third season despite the star of the show, Larry Hagman, passing away late last year. It’s been confirmed that GEM will begin airing the series from episode one at 8.30pm on Thursday, May 16.

The crazy Dutch are at it again but this time I think they’ve gone too far. A Dutch production company have launched a new reality show called ‘Mars One’ where they plan to send four astronauts to Mars in 2023 – never to return. Mars One is a not-for-profit organisation which intends to fund a decadelong endeavour by involving the whole world as the audience of an interactive, televised broadcast of every aspect of the mission, from the astronaut selections and their preparations to their arrival on Mars and their lives on the Red Planet. Once on Mars, there is no means to return to Earth. Mars is home. I’ll be very interested to see how this turns out as it is quirky and crazy to say the least. Applications are now open worldwide by visiting mars-one. com.

One of Channel 10’s best-performing shows, ‘Offspring’, is back on our boxes from Wednesday, May 22 at 8.30pm. Expect the show to be even more popular after the recent Gold Logie win by star of the show, Asher Keddie.

Olympic swimmer and occasional ‘airhead’ Ryan Lochte. E!’s six-part series titled ‘What Would Ryan Lochte Do?’ will give viewers an exclusive look into the superstar athlete’s life as he prepares for the Rio games in 2016 while building his fashion line, making buzzworthy media appearances, dealing with his unconventional family and search for ‘the one’.

Here’s one to put in your diary… if you dare. On May 28 at 9.30pm, E! are set to launch a new reality show starring American

Channel Nine’s new series ‘The Block: Sky High’ will finally air this Sunday, May 12 at 6.30pm. With a ‘Block’ series already airing

earlier this year, could another ‘Block’ so soon be an overload? I don’t think so, the promos for this look great, they are running with a different concept and even I might watch this one.

Lastly, some television show renewals have taken place in the US. J.J. Abrams’ ‘Revolution’ is back for a second season.

FOX8’s ‘Chicago Fire’ starring Australia’s Jesse Spencer has also been renewed, as well as ‘Grim’ and ‘Heart of Dixie’.

FORGET THE SNOW, GO TROPPO IN A BERLIN RAINFOREST

by David Ellis

W

e’ve never really considered Berlin the place to go for a tropical holiday.

So when a British-based colleague told my partner and I in January he was ducking over there to swap the Poms’ winter snow and zero temperatures for a week of tropical 26-degree temperatures, maybe camp in a rainforest, play golf in shorts and T-shirts, and get a suntan on a sandy beach, we considered he’d gone, well, maybe a little bit troppo.

After all, if it was winter in Britain, it was winter in Germany. And that meant anything but the balmy likes of the tropics, until he sent us photos of all the things he told us he’d do – and done. And more of himself amongst longhouses, temples, a falé and grass huts straight out of Borneo, Thailand, Samoa, Bali and South America, and amid the rainforest he’d boasted had waterfalls, palms, macaws, strutting pheasants and even flamingos.

And he said he’d done it all 35km south of Berlin – with thanks partly to an Australian who now lives in Bali. Now it was us wondering which of us may have gone a little bit troppo…

But it turns out we’re all quite normal: our

colleague had taken his holiday at Tropical Islands, an extraordinary 66,000 square metre man-made bolt-hole that’s been created within a gigantic dome built to house massive freightcarrying German airships. But the company that built the dome went belly-up in 2002 without a single airship being completed.

At 360m long, 210m wide and 107m high their hanger was, and still is, the world’s biggest free-standing, pillar-less hall. High enough for the Statue of Liberty to stand in its centre, long enough to house five football fields side-by-side, and big enough for the Eiffel Tower to be laid lengthways inside it.

And its 70,000 square metre roof is strong enough to carry consistently falling snow throughout winter, and any amount of rain year-round – and with UV-transparent film panels on the southern (equator) side, warming sunshine washes over those on the inside and gives a natural tan.

After the failure of the airship venture, the group that came up with the idea of an indoor tropically-themed waterpark recruited Balibased architect, Made Wijaya – who was born Michael White in Australia – to design the core Bali Lagoon for them.

A specialist in exotic gardens with some 600 to his credit worldwide, Made worked with other landscape architects and designers from South America, Sri Lanka, England and Germany who were charged with designing the world’s largest indoor rainforest, between them all creating an indoor theme-park as close to reality as possible to the real tropics.

Opened in 2004 and being right on Berlin’s doorstep, Tropical Islands is today an escape for not only Berliners but other Germans and Europeans, by-passing the need to have to fly to the other side of the world for a day, a week or longer in “the tropics”.

Here in the 30,000 cubic metre rainforest are 50,000 plants, bushes and groundcovers comprising some 600 species from palms to ferns, mangroves and diverse tropical fruits, a swamp that’s home to Amazon black pacus, Asian archer fish, Japanese koi and Columbian shark catfish to name a few.

And flitting through it all are parakeets, Chinese blue-breasted quail, silver pheasants, zebra finches and even a pair of macaws.

And guides along the kilometre-long pathway will answer questions about the rainforest’s plants and wildlife, and solve such

navel-gazing questions as ‘why are bananas bent?’

Tropical Islands’ 1,200 square metre Bali Lagoon is a constant 32-degrees Celsius with waterslides, whirlpools, a waterfall and grotto.

Meanwhile a Tropical Sea zone sprawls over 3,000 square metres (three times an Olympic swimming pool).

Its waters are a pleasant 28-degrees Celsius and has a sandy beach, sun-lounges, children’s paddling pool, Germany’s highest waterslide, 18-hole mini-golf, and under that specialised UV roof you can get a natural suntan.

And a Tropical World has a shopping boulevard, sauna and spa, games for the kids, and an accommodation block and lodges that can sleep 520 any night.

Or you can camp out in tents back in the rainforest, or even on the beach. Everything’s 26-degrees, 24-hours a day, year-round.

There are also 13 restaurants and bars offering self-service or a la carte tropicalcountry themed-dining, and spectacular evening stage shows.

1920’S GLAM HIGHLIGHTS OZWAC BALL

M

ore than 200 locals came out to support local charity OZWAC last Saturday night at their annual fundraising ball at Panthers.

Hosted by Channel Seven newsreader Mark Ferguson and ‘Better Homes and Gardens’ presenter Tara Dennis, the night had plenty of dancing, laughs and smiles, as guests got into the spirit of the 1920’s theme.

OZWAC raises money for important local research projects that focus on the health of women and children.

Guests on Saturday night were entertained by 1920’s style singers and dancers, while getting out their wallets and raising their hands to bid on fantastic items in the auction, and also the silent auction.

OZWAC also honoured Panthers on the night for thier ongoing commitment.

You can read about some of the work already achieved by researchers thanks to OZWAC, or more about the charity, online at www.ozwac.com.au.
