Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient) makes her long-awaited Broadway debut this fall, in a stunning production of Chekhov's masterpiece, a melancholy comedy set among the high society of late 19th-century Russia. Thomas portrays Arkadina, a volatile, extravagant actress and mother of Konstantin (Mackenzie Crook, BBC’s The Office), a young man struggling to define himself as a writer. Her arrival to the family’s country home, along with that of her lover (acclaimed film actor Peter Sarsgaard) creates a host of long-lasting romantic and artistic conflicts.

Direct from a sold-out run at London's Royal Court Theatre, where it broke box office records and became the must-see event of the season, The Seagull will be on Broadway for a strictly limited 14-week engagement. The New Yorker calls it, "The finest British production of Chekhov in recent memory."

Australian Museum Entry exhibition tickets, Australian Museum, Sydney

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 08:43:00 GMT

The Australian Museum has an international reputation in the fields of natural history and indigenous research, community programs and exhibitions. The Museum was established in 1827 and is Australia's first museum, with unique and extensive collections of natural science and cultural artefacts.

A Brief History
The Australian Museum is Australia's oldest museum: a museum of natural history and anthropology, its collections cover invertebrate and vertebrate zoology, mineralogy and palaeontology, and anthropology.

The Australian Museum was founded in 1827 when Earl Bathurst, Secretary of State for the Colonies, wrote, on 30 March, to Lieutenant-General Darling, Governor of New South Wales:

"It having been represented to me that it would be very desirable were the Government to afford its aid towards the formation of a Publick Museum at New South Wales where it is stated that many rare and curious specimens of Natural History are to be procured.. I am disposed.. to allow a sum, not exceeding 200 per annum... to be dispersed for the purpose of assisting in the accomplishment of this object"

A museum had earlier been planned in 1821 by the newly formed Philosophical Society of Australasia, and some specimens collected, but the Society folded in 1822. A new impetus came with the arrival, in 1826, of Alexander Macleay, entomologist and Fellow of the Linnean Society of London, appointed as NSW Colonial Secretary. Macleay, along with other prominent Sydney figures, lobbied for a museum.

A Brief History of the Collectors
From the beginning of European settlement, the curious specimens of the strange flora and fauna encountered were collected. The great interest by European naturalists in this 'land of contrarieties', together with the growing competitive imperial acquisitiveness of the great museums, saw large shipments of specimens of flora and fauna sent back to Europe, where descriptions and studies were published in the scientific literature. The small convict colony lacked naturalists to describe the new world encountered.

In 1827, when the idea for a museum was proposed, the impetus came from the desire to procure the 'many rare and curious specimens of Natural History' for naturalists in England. The early museum collections were acquired solely for display - for the edification and entertainment of the public. In 1832, Dr George Bennett, medical practitioner and naturalist, visited the Museum and described the infant institution in his 'Wanderings in New South Wales...'[1834]:

'the ornithological collection is by far the best, both for the number, and being beautifully stuffed and 'set up' in attitudes... There are also several of the mammalia, and reptiles of the colony in the collection.'

Times: Open 9.30am to 5.00pm every day except 25th December.

Child ages 5-15 years.

American Buffalo theater tickets, Belasco Theatre, New York

Wed, 27 Aug 2008 21:46:00 GMT

In David Mamet's classic American comedic drama, three small-time crooks, fancying themselves businessmen, wax philosophically about society while conspiring to steal a rare and valuable coin from a neighborhood collector. Volcanic and motor mouthed Teach schemes and spars with tender-hearted but street-savvy junk-shop owner Donny, eventually enlisting Bobby, a slow-witted and desperate young delinquent, to carry out their misbegotten robbery. A hilarious, banter-fueled heist comedy and a heartbreaking portrait of criminal desperation, American Buffalo's all-star cast is powered by David Mamet's stark, rapid-fire, uniquely American and unforgettable dialogue. Directed by two-time Tony Award winner Robert Falls (Death of a Salesman, Long Day's Journey into Night).

Starring:
John Leguizamo (Moulin Rouge!, Romeo + Juliet)
Cedric the Entertainer (Barber Shop, Be Cool)
Haley Joel Osment (Academy Award® nominee, The Sixth Sense)
