28 Oct 08 Broome - margo has some more new best friends in Broome. They are here to film "The Circuit 2", and on the left is Aaron Pederson (aka Drew) - You can currently see him on GWN Channel 7 Monday nights 8:30 pm as Sergeant ?????
On the right is margo's next new best friend, the very very famous Geoffrey Rush, he is here to head an all-star cast filming an adaption of a locally written musical called "Bran Nue Dae" originally penned by Broome's living legend Jimmy Chi who draws on indigenous spirituality, following the journey of a young Aboriginal boy as he journeys from Perth back to his home at Djarindjin on the Dampier Peninsula. His 3000km journey brings him into contact with a range of eclectic characters including his long lost father. Young Mark Cole-Smith (in the pic below) was in the same play earlier this year when my neighbour Justine and baby Zoe went to the local shire hall to see the play then.
