Veteran actor and SMH letter writer Bruce Spence and ABC radio’s Marius Webb share stories of their exploits and transgressions.
Veteran Balmain residents Bruce Spence and Marius Webb will share stories of their varied careers and dubious achievements over a combined hundred years of radio, television, theatre and politics. Bruce is of course well known for his various roles on stage and screen since the ‘70’s and Marius recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of the birth of DoubleJay/TripleJay. They will regale us with fascinating tales from the 1970s, acting in Melbourne, falling foul of the law, their political activities, to their more recent ventures such as writing letters to the SMH, and living in Italy. Despite the witty interjections by Marius, Bruce maintains a serious demeanour. Old friends for many years, they have a lot in common except their height.
Thursday 13 March 2025, 6.30pm for 7pm start at the Balmain Town Hall Library (rear of the Town Hall).
