DARRYN KING – NEW VOICE

A good man is hard to find

IT'S A THRILL to be able to recommend to you a new critical voice in Sydney. Darryn King is a passionate enthusiast who lives and breathes theatre (and related entertainments and general lunacy). More than that, however, he can really, really write - which is more than be said for virtually all other bloggers.

As traditional media continues to contract and disappear up its own fundament, it's vital that new voices be encouraged and allowed to sparkle in the eFirmament. It's also important that those voices are attached to hearts and minds that want to strive to be as good, expert and rigorous as the art forms on which they commentate. And that's where Darryn is my cause for optimism and gladness.

Darryn also has lots of ideas and the energy and will to move them forward (tiny tribute to LaG in case you're wondering); his live West Side Story tweet-fest is a case in point and you can still read it and check the pix and much, much more on: backstageaustralia.wordpress.com/
