Maggie Millar at the Kyneton Daffodil & Arts Festival: Fairytales for Grown Ups. 6 September 2012


Once upon a time fairytales were stories told by adults to adults and there were no holds barred. Maggie Millar has gone back to these earlier and much grimmer versions to concoct a riveting and sometimes scary evening of captivating stories, spiced up with some twisted takes on the well-known tales by modern writers.
Maggie Millar is one of Australia’s leading exponents of reading stories aloud and she brings to her performance all the vocal and acting skills acquired in her training at RADA and during her long career in stage, radio, film and TV, where she won a Best Actress Logie.
This promised to be a very different and quite compelling night out, but it is definitely Adults Only. It is Not Suitable for Children – please leave them behind, in the care of the nice old lady who lives in the Gingerbread House.
8:00 pm, Thursday 6 September
