Errol Flynn’s Grandson Stars in Ojai Play

16 Feb

Errol Flynn’s Grandson Stars in Ojai Play “Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?” runs through Feb. 22

Legendary actor Errol Flynn’s grandson Sean is part of the “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” cast in Ojai.

Flynn plays the role of Nick alongside Jessica Stone as Honey. They play the young couple visiting George (Michael Permutter) and Martha’s (Tracy Williams Sutton) home for a faculty party.

The Edward Albee play got its name from graffiti written on a mirror in the bar.

It also conjured up the song “who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.”

Yet Virginia Woolf is a British author and feminist.

The play deals with marriage, relationship and heartbreak.

Director Tom Eubanks said the actors have a wide variety of expertise, including TV, movies and voice-overs.

The play won the Tony and became the film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton earned Taylor an Oscar.

“Woolf” opens the 2015 season and runs through Feb. 22 at the Ojai Art Center, 113 S. Montgomery St., at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday nights and 2 p.m. Sundays.

Cost is $18 general, $15 for seniors, students and Art Center members. Reservations are available by calling (805) 640-8797 or via www.OjaiACT.org….

Hi and Navy Island

17 Jan

Well I wonder if any of you wondered where we were. well our provider had not been passing on any Errol Flynn E mails they were all stuck at the server. So today it took Steve almost 2 hours to get it sorted out. So if you sent us anything and did not get a reply that is the reason why. On another line did we ever find out weather Errol really owned a house on Navy island. Or did he just tie up the Zaca there. And also I sent e Christmas cards to all our friends in the states. The people who did not receive them are as follows David De Witt, Robert Matzen, Brian Twist, Thomas Mc Naulty and Jack Marino. I think we must have an old e mail addy. If so can I have your e mails please. Thank you. Genene and Steve.

Can you spot. Errol

16 May

Hi all

It is Albera ST Schools 100th centenary .And they are having a large day to celebrate this. We have been sent 2 pics 1 is of the school class and 1 I believe is of the dancing school he attended at the theater Royal. The dancing teachers name is Miss Lola Smith if this  helps. Now comes the hard part do any of you recognise Errol in these pics as to help us add to the information we can give the school as Errol was attending Albera St at this time. And as the teacher said he is the most famous person to attend the school . Love Genene.

TASMANIA’S new theatre awards have been christened The Errols, paying tribute to the state’s swashbuckling Hollywood star Errol Flynn.

Theatre Council of Tasmania chairman Rod Anderson announced the name, which was chosen via a public competition, on ABC Breakfast Radio this morning.

“My fellow judges and I were overwhelmed with the number of entries we received and were really impressed — not just with the level of interest shown — but the amount of thought that went into each of the 120-plus nominations,” Mr Anderson said.

CURTAIN RISES ON NAME GAME

Several people suggested The Errols as a potential name, leaving the judges to pick the competition winner out of a hat. Duncan Hall, from South Hobart, was selected and will receive two tickets an Errol-nominated show of his choice.

Designed to celebrate excellence in the performing arts throughout Tasmania, the inaugural Errols feature almost 30 award categories, open to local productions staged between February 1 this year and January 2015.

Judging has already started, with the first awards ceremony to be held next March.

Errol Flynn Society of Tasmania Supports local drama

11 Apr

The Errol Flynn Society of Tasmania is to support the younger drama students in the Hobart Eisteddfod with a cash prize for a period of ten years. The syllabus has been released and can be viewed at the address below. Have a look at page 44 (55 in right column) for the mention of the society. The society had some monies in deposit and wanted to support young drama students under 18 in the hope that our prize may help them to realise a dream and possibly go through to an acting career as did our most famous Tasmanian, Errol Flynn.
