Year Of The Queen: The Making Of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert - The Musical - Plot & Excerpts
Part of my gusto can be attributed to having played football yesterday. This is one of the great gifts of revitalization given to mankind. A bunch of actors, artists, and assorted fanatics assemble at a dishevelled oval in Alexandria religiously every Sunday morning to kick the ‘pill’. It’s the Sydney ‘chapter’ of a gang of madmen I kick with in Melbourne. Don’t get me wrong. We don’t play a ‘game’, that would be far too physical. We do what’s called ‘circle work’ where the ball travels clockwise around the oval, each player kicking or hand-balling to the next, as if we’re playing a game. Almost everyone is far too old and injured to be a respectable athlete, but it’s hilarious in its earnestness, for each to relive his past glory days of football heroics. I arrive in a state of stressed panic from the week’s pressure and leave with the gaze of a Buddha having walked the seven steps to Nirvana. In two hours of footy, I run off all the campery and the stress of Priscilla.
