“Baby look at me, and tell me what you see.” So goes the opening line of the title song of Fame, one of the greatest tunes to deliver positive self-affirmation and embrace the philosophy of bringing your dreams to life by loudly declaring them.

Fame the Musical, the epic dance musical that celebrates all things eighties –from neon lycra and pop hits to baggy sweats and hip hop – is set to take Perth by storm in 2022. It’ll be taking over the Crown Theatre from 16th – 24th April.

Based on the iconic Academy Award winner film, the hit television series and best- selling novel, Fame the Musical tells the story of the last class to graduate from New York’s prestigious School of Performing Arts. It takes the audience on a journey from the painstaking entrance auditions to graduation and highlights the highs and lows of this journey.

Featuring Isaac Diamond as Nick Piazza, Elaina O’Connor as Serena Katz, James Bell as Joe Vegas, G Madison as Tyrone Jackson, Angelique Cassimatis as Carmen Diaz, Taylah Small as Iris Kelly, Paige Fallu as Mabel Washington, Greg Jarema as Schlomo Metzenbaum, Ethan Churchill as Goodman ‘Goody’ King and Shanice-Kalina Thompson as Gracie “Lambchops” Lamb.

Their tutors will be performed by Lucy Williamson, Mia Simonette,  Manuao Teaotonga and Igor Sas.

The stage musical is based on the acclaimed 1980 film, which also spawned a popular television series that ran for many years. Making it’s debut in 1988, this version radically reworks the story, and featured a whole new set of songs, with only the title tune retained from the original film.  Along with the new story comes a new cast of characters too.   

The production will now be directed by Adam Mitchell. The show is the latest offering from HAMA, producers of recent hit seasons of Legally Blonde, The Little Mermaid and The Wizard of Oz.

The post 'Fame – the Musical' is coming to the Crown Theatre appeared first on OUTinPerth.

British film director Sir Alan Parker has died aged 76. His long career saw him create a wide range of films including music charged hits like Fame, The Commitments, Evita and Bugsy Malone, and dramas including Midnight Express, Mississippi Burning, Angela’s Ashes and The Life of David Gale. 

After a successful career in advertising and directing commercials Parker moved in to being a screenwriter and director. His first film, 1976’s Bugsy Malone, was a musical about the famous gangster and all the roles were played by children. Jodie Foster and Scott Biao headed the cast.

He followed this up with Midnight Express (1978) before creating the massive box office hit Fame in 1980. The movie followed the lives of students and teachers at New York’s High School for the Performing Arts. The films soundtrack was also a massive success and it spawned a long running television program that continued the story.

Throughout the 1980’s Parker made a series of films that were both critically acclaimed and commercial successes including Angel Heart, Mississippi Burning and Birdy. At the start of the 1990’s he had another music filled success with The Commitments  which told the story of a formation of a soul band in Dublin’s poorest suburbs.

In 1996 he brought the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice musical Evita to the screen. The film had been bogged down in development hell for over 15 years and filming the epic musical saw Parker taking on a range of challenges including getting Lloyd Webber and Rice, who had not worked together for years, to reunite a write new music for the film version, plus getting permission to film in Argentina and casting the perfect actress to play Eva Peron.

Michelle Pfeiffer originally signed on for the film but had to drop out when she fell pregnant, Glenn Close was considered as a replacement, but Parker opted to cast Madonna in the lead role after she wrote him a lengthy letter expressing her desire to take on the role.  The film was a box office smash and Madonna won a Golden Globe for her portrayal of Peron.

In 1999 Parker filmed Angela’s Ashes. Based on the best selling autobiography by Frank McCourt the film was a box office disappointment.  Parker’s final film was 2003’s The Life of David Gale. Starring Laura Linney, Kate Winslet and Kevin Spacey it dealt with the issue of capital punishment and the death penalty. The film was panned by critics and would be Parker’s last production.

Parker was awarded a CBE by Queen Elizabeth II in the 1995 birthday honours, in 2002 he made a Knight Commander in the New Year Honours. His family announced his passing, saying he died on Friday morning following a lengthy illness.

Praise for his work has come from the actors, musicians and creatives he worked with. Matthew Modine who starred in Birdy posted to social media saying being cast in the epic picture transformed his life, and praising Parker as a great artist whose work will live forever.  Musician Peter Gabriel, who composed the score for the film, said Parker had left behind a wonderful legacy of work.

Lord Lloyd Webber said Parker was one of the few directors who understood how to transfer musicals to the screen, while Antonio Banderas, who played Che opposite Madonna’s Eva Peron, praised Parker as a “great director”.

The post 'Evita' and 'Fame' director Sir Alan Parker dies aged 76 appeared first on OUTinPerth.

On this day in 1980 the movie Fame was released into cinemas across America. The film would go on to inspire a television series that ran for six seasons and a 2009 remake that didn’t have the same impact of the original.

Fame focuses on the lives of students at the New York School of Performing Arts, and presents some memorable characters among both the student body and the faculty.

Based on a real life school, which today has been renamed the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School, the movie is filled with ambition, struggle and challenges in the world of acting, song and dance.

The gritty take on life in NYC in thew late 1970’s has a lot to say about class, sexuality, ethnicity and the good old American Dream. The film featured actor Paul McCrane as Montgomery MacNeil, a drama student who is struggling with his homosexuality.

McCrane would go on to appearing in the long running television series E.R. as Dr Robert ‘Rocket’ Romano, and he’s currently appearing in TV drama All Rise. When the TV series Fame was launched in 1982 P.R. Paul took over the role of Montgomery, but the character’s homosexuality was erased.

The film also make a star out dancer Gene Anthony Ray who played Leroy Johnson. Ray reprises the role in the subsequent TV series.

Ray was fired from his role in the TV series in 1984 after he had missed work more than a hundred times, and his mother was arrested for being part of a drug ring. Previously Ray’s mother was allegedly caught selling drugs on the set of the film back in 1980.

Aside from his most famous role in Fame, Ray also appeared in the Weather Girls’ video for their mega-hit It’s Raining Men and appeared as Man Friday in a Robinson Crusoe film opposite Michael York.

Later in life there were time that Ray was reported as living on the streets. He was diagnosed as HIV positive in 1995 and in 2003 suffered a stroke, passing away a few months later. Ray never discussed his sexuality and in his obituary it was described that ‘he always flamboyantly brushed aside any questions’.

Irene Cara who played singer Coco Hernandez scored a massive hit singing the now iconic theme song which saw the students rushing out of school to dance on the streets. Erica Gimpel to over the role for the TV series, while Cara went on to have further chart success.

Just a few years later Cara scored a second iconic tune when she sang What a Feeling! the lead song from the movie Flashdance. The song won her an Oscar for Best Original Song and a Grammy award. She scored more hits with Why Me and Breakdance. 

Director Alan Parker, who prior to Fame had found success with Bugsy Malone and Midnight Express, went on to direct more musical orientate projects including The Commitments, Evita and Pink Floyd’s The Wall. As well as dramas including Angela’s Ashes, The Life of David Gale and Mississippi Burning. 

The TV version of Fame was not so successful in the USA but was very popular in other territories including Australia and the United Kingdom. A teenage Janet Jackson joined the cast for the show’s fourth season.

Fame is available to stream or rent from YouTube.

The post On This Gay Day: 'Fame' celebrates its 40th anniversary appeared first on OUTinPerth.

Koorliny Arts Centre are staging the sensational 80’s musical Fame – The Musical this month.

Presented by Laughing Horse Productions and directed by Cat Rippon, Fame – The Musical follows the highs and lows of students at New York City’s illustrious High School for the Performing Arts.

It follows their struggles, triumphs and relationships as they explore ambition, fame, and self-confidence, finding themselves both within the school and in life, from their first year to graduation.

The story originally began as a gritty feature film in 1980 which was directed by Alan Parker. The film’s theme song which was sung by Irene Cara and won the Oscar for Best Original Song.

The story was soon converted into a weekly TV series with many of the actors from the film reprising their roles. a young Janet Jackson joined the cast of the TV show in its later years. In 1987 it was converted into a stage musical, and since then it’s been the inspiration for a reality TV show, and a new movie version.

Director Cat Rippon said she was a student at London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art many years ago and now had a passion to direct talented kids.

“Fame – The Musical seemed a real journey to depict,” she said. “It also has the reality of the wrong temptations out there for kids in the arts – or anyone, really – which needed to be shown against the fun and frivolities of the show.

“The show wasn’t difficult to cast at all and the talent was there from the start.

“All the kids are going through their own life journeys and the difficulty is separating their reality from their characters.

“But it makes it real – the cast were certainly invested in creating their characters, which brings the show to life.”

The director said she thinks a lot of people in the arts remember the original movie because it was quite a unique piece of work.

“I think a lot of people in the arts identify with the Fame movie because it was the first of its kind at the time,” Rippon said.

“When directing I never look at what has been done before – I tell my cast to bring their own personality to the characters because the script gives you all you need.

“I read the script three times – once as an audience member, then as a cast member to dissect the characters and finally as a director and production team member, which helps give me the knowledge of how to stage the show.

“I do all this before auditions and that way I have the confidence to live the show through the actors and everyone involved.”

Fame – The Musical plays at 8pm June 15, 16, 22 and 23 with 2pm matinees June 16 and 23. Book at www.koorliny.com.au or on 9467 7118. The Koorliny Arts Centre is on Sulphur Road, Kwinana.

Twenty five years ago seven dancers joined Madonna on her Blonde Ambition World Tour. There escapades were captured in the documentary In Bed With Madonna.

This fascinating documentary we find out where the performers are now and see how their moment in Madonna’s bright spotlight changed their lives for better or worth.

The film touches on some very serious themes including coming out, mental health, drug use, homophobia, living with HIV and the allure of fame and celebrity.

Watch the film on ABC iView until 19 March.

Irish girl group B*witched zoomed to the top of the charts with Cest La Vie in the late ’90s and kept on scoring hits with two albums of energetic pop tunes.

The band comprised twin sisters Edele and Keavy Lynch, Lindsay Armaou, and Sinéad O’Carroll. Edele and Keavy weren’t the only members of their family with a pop career, older brother Shane was in Boyzone.

This week the band are in Australia for a tour that kicks off with a show at Metro City, before working their way around the country. Alongside B*witched are East 17, S Club 3, Atomic Kitten and Liberty X.

Keavy Lynch chatted to Graeme Watson about what life was like when the band was at the top of the charts, and how she adjusted to finding a whole new career after the band broke up.

Nineteen years after B*witched released your debut single C’est La Vie I’m still hearing it at least once a week, that’s some longevity.

Where do you hear it?

In our local gay club, they have a night dedicated to shameless pop music.

Fabulous. It’s one of those songs that anyone who is playing chart music and going a bit light-hearted, it tends to be in the mix somewhere.

When your recording songs do you have a feel for which ones are going to be hits and have longevity, or is the whole process just a ‘stab in the dark’?

That’s such a good question, I think when you write things you kind of know it. You get a kind of energy and everyone says ‘This is good’. I think you do kind of feel the message and say ‘I think we’re onto something here’.

It’s funny because when that happens it makes it more nerve wracking and scary to finish the song because you’re like ‘Oh My God, I don’t want to ruin it!’ You can’t wait to get to the end but it’s like ‘careful…careful.. We’re doing it really well.’

What was it like growing up in the Lynch family, was it a musical household?

You’d think so wouldn’t you.  

Well I ask because my research tells me that your Dad was a mechanic, there’s nothing to say your parents were in show business.

No, my Mum and Dad weren’t in show business. My granddad was a fiddle player, but that’s about as far as it went. My Mum was a ballerina when she was younger.

My Dad always wanted to be a musician, he wanted to be a guitarist. My Nana told him that he couldn’t do it, she said he ‘shouldn’t be the type of person that played a guitar’ So unfortunately for my Dad he missed out that.  

I think in our house when we started saying thing like we wanted to be singers and dancers, My Mum and Dad were like ‘Alright, go and do it, absolutely go for your life.”

There probably was a lot music played in our house, we went to dance classes and singing lessons and put on a lot of shows, and even made up our own shows a Christmas.

What was life like for you in the late ‘90s when B*witched were at their peak.

Life was probably lots of different things, some of it was just crazy. We were so busy, working sixteen, seventeen hours every single day. I think we had a day off about once every three months.

It was intense, and crazy, we lived and breathed everything B*witched from the moment we woke up.

It was fantastic to travel the world and luckily we had some really good successes. So it was exciting and surpassed any expectations of what we thought might happen to us.

It was exciting and busy, but at times it was also lonely. You spend so much time away from your family and friends and the only socialisation you have outside the band via the telephone. Back then that was really expensive because we didn’t have things like Skype and Facetime.

We used to spend an extortionate amount of money on our mobiles, I can remember my bill being about ￡2,500 a month. I was a good customer for phone companies, you wouldn’t be able to run up a bill like that nowadays.

Is being on the US soap opera General Hospital one of the surrealist things that happened during B*witched’s run?

You know, that’s actually not true, it never happened.

That’s what I get for using Wikipedia, it catches out so many times.

It’s really funny because you’re not the first person to ask that question in the interviews we’ve being doing recently. The funniest bit is, that’s there’s a moment when I start to question myself and wonder if it happened and I’ve just completely forgotten about it. I’m pretty sure we never did, I don’t remember doing that. I really don’t think it’s true.

I’ve been caught out before, it said the singer Hazell Dean had come out as a lesbian in 2010 and when I asked her about it she assured me she hadn’t made any statement at all.

That’s hilarious, it’s great for information, but it can be so inaccurate as well. I went through a phase where someone kept changing my Wikipedia page and saying really horrible things about me.

When B*witched got back together the reality TV show The Big Reunion was there some trepidation? Reality TV only works if there’s drama and conflict.

Absolutely, I was bagging it. It took me eight months to say to doing the show, and there was quite a few reasons.

I was studying at the time, I’d gone back to college to become a counselor and I thought about how I could balance those two things at the same time, and I was unsure about how much of my new life that I’d started to make would change, and if I wanted that happen.

I took me while to come around, and I was nervous about reality TV, we’d never done that before. It can be nasty, the editor has to create drama, that’s what people want to watch.

We were thinking that it is a risk, because we don’t get to see the edit, we only get to see them once they’re on the tele, just like everyone else does.

We were worried about them just wanting to make us look like fools, but thankfully they weren’t, they wanted to make a really good show.

Most of it was really good, they did use some dramatic parts, There was a part where a four hour long conversation was edited into about four minutes, and unfortunately that made some members of the band appear in a different light that was different to the whole conversation.

Some of it was out of context, which is a bit of a shame, but overall I think the bands got away with it.

What’s it like making a life outside of music, what made you choose the degree you did and a life as a counselor?

I absolutely love it. The deep answer is; ‘because it changed my life’. I got to a place in my life probably in my mid 20’s, following the band ending.

I think towards the end of the band’s run I got really lost as a person. In the band it’s very hard to find time to process what’s going on because you never had an off day. So if I was feeling a bit down or I need a break, we never got one.

I think the amount of suppression I did just eventually got a hold of me and I had a few years where I just really struggled, and didn’t really kind of want to live the life that I was feeling.

I thought ‘this is horrible’, it felt horrible to wake up everyday, it was a real struggle. So I went to counselling, a lot later than I should have, because there’s stigma that comes with it.

That’s changing now, which is great, but I listened to that stigma and I didn’t want to tell anyone that I was struggling. I think I struggled silently for much longer that I should have.

Going to counselling changed my life, it empowered me to get my life back and figure it all out. Ever since that, which is when I was about 26, I’ve wanted to pay that gift forward. It was amazing for me.

I was 31 when I went back to college and became a counselor. I have a private practice, I see clients every week and absolutely love it.

Somehow the music fits around it, and I’m able to do both, which is something I’m very grateful for

Tell me about your work with the charity Stand Down who help returned service personnel.

Stand Down is something that I got involved in because it makes sense because of my new career in counselling.

It came about from volunteering for another charity here called Crisis, who tackle homelessness and do Crisis Christmas.

I did that one year, and I was really surprised at how many servicemen and women were there. They’d just got really lost after their stint in the army or the navy, or whatever they were in.

I just thought, ‘Wow! These people have served the country that I now live in and where are their lives now.

When they approached me about getting involved I was absolutely on board because it’s something I really care about. They’re amazing, they offer online counselling to service personnel and their families.

It’s a really important gap that they fill. Not everyone can leave their home, for lots of different reasons. It might be that they’re disabled from an injury or they might be mentally disabled because mentally their struggling and just don’t know how to leave the house and reach out and find the help they need.

We’re about to run out of time, last question, what’s it like going on tour with all the people you used to compete against in the charts?

It’s going to be so much fun, we haven’t done it for about three years now.

What’s nice about it is that ‘back in the day’ we used to all cross each other’s paths, we see each other in studios and running on and off stage at radio roadshows, but there was never much time to hang out with each other. Everyone was always off to another interview or photo-shoot.

When we get on these tours, we finally get to know these people that you’ve spent a lot of time around but never had time to hang out with.

We all know a fair about about each other because we’re in the public eye, we all read the magazines, but it’s great to get to know these distant colleagues.

We’ve already toured with Atomic Kitten and Liberty X – so that’s going to be familiar, but I’m looking forward to getting to know that S Club 7 crew and East 17.

B*witched will be playing all their hits alongside East 17, Atomic Kitten, Liberty X and S Club at Metro City on Tuesday February 7th, before touring around Australia.

Some might argue that fame is simply “the state of being known by many people” but not Sharron. No to Famous Sharron, fame is an art that can be harnessed, taught, shared and should be taken seriously. It’s reserved for an elite group of people. Lucky for us, the larger than life character has kindly donated some of her time and sparkly to help a select number of Perth’s well known faces become more famous than ever before. Head along to ‘The Fame Game’ and you too could learn a few lessons about being the next big thing…

The show began with Sharron’s Famettes hustling on stage in nothing but fluro lycra and cosmetic smiles. I assume essential to any famous persons entourage? In came Famous Sharron herself for possibly the most entertaining musical number rivaling Brian McFadden’s ‘Just Say So’ if in a battle of extreme auto tuning. ‘The Fame Game’ is more than just game show theatre for your viewing pleasure, it’s something Sharron encourages all of her audience members to participate in and the intimacy of the Casa Mondo allows you to feel comfortable in a room of strangers.

Fame so I have learnt is all about improvising your way to the top and ‘The Fame Game’ displays some fabulous improvising skills both from Sharron and her glitzy Famettes from The Big HOO-HAA! Without any sort of self awareness the hour long show leaves you in fits of double-chin worthy ugly laughter. 2004 Australian Idol contestant Courtney Murphy joined the guest list along with Assistant Coach of the South Fremantle Football Club, Michelle Cowan. The two were willingly subjected to improvised scenarios all aimed to hone their skills aiding their rise to ultimate stardom.

Every evening sees a new selection of Perthonalities and every night you can be sure you’ll get something different from the last. So why not give yourself a ‘double shot glitter-glitzy-glamourous Famous Sharron expresso and go play along to the hilarious fame game more than once… OUTinPerth doesn’t give stars for our reviews but it’s fair to say Famous Sharron certainly is one.

The Fame Game is playing as a part of  Fringe World until Monday 4th Feb, to see what other great cabaret acts are playing visit the Fringe World website.

The post Review: The Fame Game appeared first on OUTinPerth.

Ray shot to fame when he was cast in the 1980 movie ‘Fame’ as one of the central characters Leroy Johnson. Ray went on to feature in the TV series based on the film.

Born in Harlem in 1962 Ray first began performing on the streets in New York City and at neighbourhood block parties. He skipped High School for the day to go the audition for Alan Parker’s film based on New York’s High School for the Performing Arts.

Ray had actually attended the school a few years earlier, but had been expelled for being too rowdy.

Aside from his most famous role in ‘Fame’, Ray also appeared in the Weather Girls’ video for their mega-hit ‘It’s Raining Men’ and appeared as Man Friday in a Robinson Crusoe film opposite Michael York.

The TV show ‘Fame’ was not a success in the USA but had a huge audience in Australia and Great Britain and television stations from these countries contributed to it’s production costs in later years to keep the series on air. In 1982 Ray and many of the show’s cast members toured the UK as ‘The Kinds from Fame’ releasing a studio album and a live recording as well.

Ray was fired from his role in the TV series in 1984 after he had missed work more than a hundred times, and his mother was arrested for being part of a drug ring. Previously Ray’s mother has allegedly caught selling drugs on the set of the film back in 1980.

Ray spent months at home eating junk food, until he realised that he’d put on so much weight he could no longer wear his clothes, he later recalled in a interview.

“For five months I sat at home in front of the TV and stuffed my face with junk food,” he recalled. “Then one day I looked in the mirror and thought ‘Man, you are the fattest pig on Earth’. I couldn’t believe it was my reflection. So I bought a new pair of pants in my usual size – 28in waist – and couldn’t even get them over my thighs. Man, I was shocked! I ate like a bird on salad and worked out for two months until those pants fitted like a glove.”

Following his return to form, Ray went on to appear in the films ‘Eddie’ with Whoopi Goldberg and ‘Out of Sync’ which was directed by close friend and ‘Fame’ cast mate Debbie Allen. He also appeared in TV commercials for Diet Coke and Dr Pepper.

Later in life there were time that Ray was reported as living on the streets. He was diagnosed as HIV positive in 1995 and in 2003 suffered a stroke, passing away a few months later. Ray never discussed his sexuality and in his obituary it was described that ‘he always flamboyantly brushed aside any questions’.

Throughout his life he was a well documented party lover, and undoubtedly inspired many boys to realise that dancing could be cool. In an interview with the official ‘Fame’ magazine Ray was asked what he liked to do most, his answer was simple, “dance”.

To celebrate Gene Anthony Ray’s brilliance, here’s a clip of him dancing with a snowman and some highlights of him dancing in the film and TV series ‘Fame’.

The post Remember His Name: Gene Anthony Ray appeared first on OUTinPerth.

 A Street Car Named Desire

In the original play the lead character Blanche DuBois has withdrawn into a world of fantasies after she discovered her husband Allan Grey was having a homosexual affair. By the time the story made it to the big screen all the references to Allan’s sexuality were removed.

‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ is not the only story to have all the queerness removed, here’s a couple of others.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Many people would be familiar with Truman Capote’s novella ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’. The short novel created one of Audrey Hepburn’s most memorable roles as the carefree Holly Golightly. In the film version Holly is romanced by Fred, played by the A-Team’s George Peppard. In the original novel Fred’s sexuality was a lot more fluid that the portrayal given in Blake Edwards’ 1961 film.
Earlier this year a new play based on the original book opened on Broadway. ‘Game of Thrones’ star Emilia Clarke took on the role of Holly Golightly and up and coming actor Cory Michael Smith played Fred. In this version all of Fred’s shenanigans in the stationary closet were included.

Fame

In the 1980 film ‘Fame’ Paul McCrane played Montgomery MacNeil, a drama student coming to terms with his sexuality. Two years later when the television version of ‘Fame’ was created the role was recast and an actor named P.R. Paul took over the role, but in the TV series Montgomery was no longer gay.

54

More recently, the film ‘54’ about the famous NYC nightclub has 45 minutes of the original film cut and an extra 20 minutes of new footage added in. The first version of the film focused on a love triangle between the three main characters played by Brekin Meter, Ryan Phillipe and Salma Hayek. When test audiences didn’t respond well the whole gay storyline was exorcised. Footage of a love scene between Philippe and Meyer has appeared on YouTube a few times, but it disappears very quickly.
