Saya mengakui kalau saya hari ini berdiri di Naarm, tanah yang dirampas paksa dari orang Wurrundjerri Woi-Wurrung dan Bunurong dari bangsa Kulin Timur. Hormat dan cinta penuh saya sampaikan kepada Nene, Tete, Mama, Bapa, Tanta, Om dan Kaka Tetua Adat yang sudah mendahului kita semua, yang sekarang hidup bersama kita dan yang akan menjaga tanah ini di masa depan.

Terimakasih sudah menyambut saya dengan cuaca hangat yang bersahabat, agaknya tanah ini tau ada perempuan utara tidak tahan dingin yang bertamu sebab sepanjang minggu itu semua orang yang saya temui bilang “ini tumben cuaca bagus sekali”

Waktu tiba di bandara, saya melihat pohon-pohon eucalyptus atau biasa disebut pohon Bus oleh orang Anim-Ha. Kontur tanah yang rata seperti Merauke, terbayang hidup bangsa ini yang penuh sukar di atas tanah mereka sendiri. Air mata jatuh, hati patah membayangkan rumah di utara dekat, akankah kami hidup seperti ini?

Tuhan memberi begitu banyak berkat, salah satunya kawan sepantaran yang berbaik hati meminjamkan bahu untuk bersandar dan telinga untuk mendengarkan cerita kami.

Terimakasih banyak kawan, saya teringat Seruling Emas No.30
Kidung ini untuk kalian.

Angin hujan nyapu batu karang
Nundukan kelapa di tepi
Alampun berduka hati juga
Hari kita hendak bercerai
Selamatooo…
Kawanku yang tak dapat saya lupa
Salam di jalan sampai kita pun
Bertemu kembali…

Saya lupa ini apa, tapi mirip seperti tas bulu Kasuari dari Merauke yang dihadiahkan Kaka Ella Brasil untuk Mama Ijo Spanyol di Mnukwar. Kela bilang harganya mahal, apa kita minta dibelikan yah?

Foto ini saya ambil di ponsel sendiri saat sedang rusak, entahlah kebiasaan ponsel butut, tidak bisa diandalkan saat dibutuhkan.

Kaka Afni yang baik, terimakasih sudah menjadi kawan dan membantu kami selama di Naarm.

Boru Batak rasa Nona Ambon memang beda!

Dewi yang cantik, seharian mengajak ku mengelilingi kotanya, terimakasih Naarm sudah menerima dan menjaga kawan saya yang cemerlang.

Semoga Dewi pulang ke Pulau Dewata dengan semua hal baik yang dia terima dari Naarm yang penuh kejutan.

Pho yang kita makan sangat enak Wi, saya masih bisa mengingat rasanya!

Ini karya seni milik Yayoi Kusama, mirip deng

October / November / where the hell are we DUMP!?

This past few weeks has been A LOT! Both on the stage, in the rehearsal room, at the computer (BIZNESS) and a whole ONSLAUGHT of personal things to boot.

✅ finished a national tour
✅ hosted gay Christmas aka Halloween Private Gig
✅ hosted a burlesque comp
✅ started writing new solo show
✅ started rehearsing for new group show
✅ went to AC/DC for wah b’day
✅ produced a Chaos Cabaret
✅ then did the late show 👀
✅ started a new residency at a new melb venue
✅ launched new solo show and Chaos for Perth Fringe
✅ did photoshoots for said new projects
✅ planning and finalising tour dates for next year
✅ 8 flights ( and counting 🙃 )

…. All while being a busy cat mum of 3. 💅
And a wife to my two husbands! (Kev & Trigger Happy PTY LTD).

I am writing all this down mostly for myself to understand just how many things I’ve achieved despite the universes best attempts to test me. I am so so so very lucky I have the best husband and friends in the world. From long catch ups on the phone with balls to my shaft aka Marcus. To wines and shit talking with my gal Memphacima. To scheming, being ridiculous and brainstorming with my work husband Trigger. To airport rides, cuddles and excellent dark humour from Maddie. To supportive and loving chats with my gal Tess. And countless (and I really mean countless) wines with a whole bunch of fucking excellent humans.

And all of this culminated into this week in the rehearsal studio….. where I learnt dance at Musical Theatre School….

I know it sounds cliche as fuck. But that gal back then with her jet black hair and terrible eyebrows would be pretty fucking stoked with what we have done with ourselves (despite probably not believing me that I wore this much make up now or owned cats or even being openly queer).

So cheers to the rough, busy, beautiful, hilarious and whatever the fuck that was - as always it has been ✨Dreamz✨
