Podcasts about Strictly Ballroom

This week, the boys pull up their dacks, lace up their blunnies, pull over their cardies, eat a bikkie, grab a tinny, and lob in for the Ridgy Didge himself, Baz Luhrmann's first feature film, “Strictly Ballroom”. This isn't any ear bashing- we loved it! It made us three happy little Vegemites. After Jeff gives a quick mini-review of “Mission: Impossible— The Final Reckoning”, our native Aussie and gutless wonder, Dave, knackered from a good hissy at his lappy, guides us through this absolute hooley dooley. Don't be a drongo- grab a coldie and listen- you'll be doing the bogo pogo in a jiff!  Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

This week, Festival Fever gives us our first Baz!

Christoph vom Sneakpod begibt sich mit mir in die schrille Welt des australischen Ballroom Dancings. Wir haben Strictly Ballroom, das Debüt von Baz Luhrman, dem infamous razzle-dazzler besprochen und dabei Kitsch, Rebellion, Satire, Tanz, eine absurde Cola-Werbung, Konformismus und Individualität entdeckt. Es gab einen Generationen-Konflikt und Multikulturalismus. Ist das eine Komödie oder ein Drama? So richtig können wir uns keinen Reim darauf machen, denn am Ende ist alles ganz schön dünn.

The Luke Skywalker and Frodo Baggins of this podcast are our magnificent sponsors Optimove and Clarion Gaming. We love you in the way that some people love Star Wars and LOTR. No Fintan! This episode's guest is Dr. Sally Gainsbury, Director at Gambling Treatment & Research Clinic and Professor of Psychology, University of Sydney. Dr Gainsbury discusses the importance of language in gambling research and the need for more responsible terminology. Sally and Jon also touch on the flaws of the peer review system in academia, and the unique gambling landscape in Australia. The conversation explores the need for a commercial approach to problem gambling and the importance of effective communication to prevent gambling harm. It discusses the metrics for success in addressing problem gambling and the role of marketing in shaping consumer behaviour. The conversation also touches on the challenges of understanding gambling costs, the impact of lottery advertising, and the need for transparency in gambling inducements. The role of regulators in addressing deceptive practices and the potential for gambling to be a gateway activity are also discussed. Also worth noting: Sally does not disclose the identity of Australia's greatest music act, but there is bonding over the genius of Bluey, and a bit of Strictly Ballroom. Oh, and Democracy Sausages get in the conversation. If you don't know what they are, press play…   In a nutshell: Language is important in shaping perceptions and behaviors related to gambling. The peer review system in academia has its flaws and requires checks and balances. Australia has a high rate of gambling participation, particularly in pokies (electronic gaming machines). Advertising for online wagering has increased, targeting younger men. There is a need for a shift in the responsibility of operators and players in promoting responsible gambling. The gambling industry needs to adapt and change, as seen with previous bans on tobacco advertising. Problem gambling should be approached as a commercial problem, with metrics for success that focus on marketing effectiveness. Effective communication is crucial in preventing gambling harm, including providing information on the costs of play and the chances of winning. Transparency is needed in gambling inducements, such as bonusing, to ensure consumers are fully aware of the terms and conditions. Regulators play a vital role in addressing deceptive practices and promoting responsible gambling. While gambling can provide hope and entertainment, it is important for individuals to have a critical appraisal of their gambling behavior and make informed choices.   Choice quotes from the episode: "Language is at the bottom of everything we do." "The way we talk about something, even casually, has a strong impact on individual behaviour." "Problem gambling terminology implies something inherent about the person that can't be changed." "If you look at it as a commercial problem, then the metrics for success change completely. If you look at it as a marketing issue, because it's getting the right words to the right person at the right time in the right way. And that is marketing, pretty much."   This podcast is presented by Optimove, which is used by 56% of the EGR Power50 to personalize player experiences.

30 years ago this year, a small independent film, by a first time director, and an unknown cast, hit our screens. That film was Strictly Ballroom. And so, for our final episode of Season 2 of Talking Pointes, I'm speaking with the legendary Paul Mercurio. Paul was born in Swan Hill in regional Victoria and started dancing after he saw his elder sister in a local dance class. With dad off the scene early, the family moved to Perth where Paul continued to train at the John Curtin Senior High School as it was known then, before, at 18, being accepted in the Australian Ballet School in Melbourne. But in a rebel move, he joined Sydney Dance Company before graduating, it was the golden era of Graeme Murphy's directorship. It was a position he held for ten years, as a principal dancer, muse and choreographer. During his later years Sydney Dance Company, Paul received a call from an unknown director called Baz Lurhmann who asked him to help choreograph on a dance film. It was a call that changed his life. In this wonderfully honest interview, Paul talks about his early years in dance, his “angry man” years as he calls them—where he wrote poetry, smoked weed, and rode motorbikes. We also talk about how Strictly Ballroom came to be, the behind the scene, and how the film changed his life. Finally we talk new careers, raising a family, and his plans for making a more inclusive community in his local area.Paul and I recorded remotely, with Paul dialling in from Melbourne on the land of the Kulin people. Paul's episode was produced in Sydney on the land of the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation, to whom we pay our greatest respects.

Australian legend Paul Mercurio has mostly wonderful memories of his debut film STRICTLY BALLROOM. The film catapulted Paul to global stardom and a series of international films.  Whilst Paul has no regrets about his career, he highlights the myth that successful movies always make its stars rich. Indeed, he acknowledges that receiving no royalties from his most successful work has made life challenging. Enjoy this very frank and honest conversation with the wonderful Paul Mercurio. 

"A life lived in fear is a life half lived." February starts off with a quickstep and a foxtrot by looking at the iconic and well-respected work of auteur Baz Luhrmann debut film, "Strictly Ballroom." It is a romantic comedy/drama centered on a gifted dancer bound for great things and a lust for bucking the system with his unconventional dance steps and trying to succeed with a new partner. This was one of Joe's "library" movies that he and his family watched a bunch growing up, and Justin had never even HEARD of it before! The boys discuss the ins and outs of Luhrmann's debut film and how it ties to the other films of his red curtain trilogy, "Romeo + Juliet" and "Moulin Rouge." Speaking of, stay tuned for the next episode where we look at Luhrmann's follow up, "Romeo + Juliet"! -- We are Uncultured Universe - the podcast where two friends show each other movies, tv, music, or anything else to get a little more cultured.

CONTENT WARNING. A note from Clare: "While in this Episode, we talk about creativity and hope, baking and Strictly Ballroom, and address a wide range of things from the politics of climate action to biodiversity, we also discuss the details of going on a hunger strike. Personally, I would say that bit is not suitable for children, although I suspect Gregory would disagree. I'd also like to let you know there's mention of eating disorders in this interview. It's a compelling listen - there's much to think about and learn from here, and I admire Gregory's stand and his ethics. But do exercise your own judgement with little or vulnerable/ anxious ears around.Thank you,Clare xxx"How far would you go for climate action? Changing your lifestyle? Sounds doable (to an extent!). Divesting from businesses that support the fossil fuel industry, perhaps? Would you consider getting into politics? Or more controversial actions, like risking arrest at a banned street protest, or harbour blockade, for example? Our guest this week embarked on a much more unusual - and indeed dangerous - strategy to spur the government into stronger action on climate issues.Gregory Andrews is a former diplomat, and was Australia's first ever Threatened Species Commissioner. He worked as a public servant for more than 30 years, including for 15 years in the Departments of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Environment, Climate Change, and Indigenous Affairs. Today he's an adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Canberra's Institute for Applied Ecology.In November 2023, in the run up to COP28, he stationed himself outside Australia's federal parliament, and staged a hunger strike for climate action. His demands included that the government stop permitting the logging of native forests, and end subsidies to fossil fuels companies. He lasted 16 days before ending up in hospital.

How a fashion-loving misfit from Sydney took over Hollywood with husband Baz Luhrmann, winning more Oscars than any other Australian (R)

In the thirty-eighth episode of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by editor Kristi Shimek and novelist Samuel Cullado to discuss the fabulous madcap immersion into the insanely competitive world of ballroom dancing in Baz Luhrmann's directorial debut about creative authenticity and collaborative trust that is Strictly Ballroom (1992).

Drew McOnie is a British choreographer and theatre director, and one of the busiest people in show business. He danced with Matthew Bourne's New Adventures company, but soon wanted to run the show. His work hits a sweet spot between warm and witty, always with a kinetic fizz: whether in the West End, on Broadway or in ballet. His new version of the Nutcracker gives the festive favourite a sweetly queer twist, and next year sees his stage version of the Oscar winning movie The Artist. Drew became a father just a week before this recording – no wonder that we speak about making families in and out of dance.Drew McOnie is Artistic Director of the McOnie Company and an Associate Artist at the Old Vic and Birmingham Rep theatres. He won an Olivier Award for Best Theatre Choreography for In the Heights and was nominated for the same award the following year for Jesus Christ Superstar. His credits as director/choreographer include: On the Town (Olivier Award Nomination for Best Musical Revival), The Wild Party and Strictly Ballroom in the UK and King Kong on Broadway. Ballets include Merlin (Northern Ballet). The McOnie Company's latest works are Nutcracker (Tuff Nutt Jazz Club), which runs until 6 January 2024, and The Artist, which opens in May 2024.Find out more about the work of the RADFollow the RAD on social media and join the conversation with host David Jays:Instagram @royalacademyofdanceFacebook @RoyalAcademyofDanceTwitter @RADheadquartersYouTube / royalacademydanceDavid Jays @mrdavidjaysSign up to our mailing list to keep in touch!RAD is an independent educational charity and does not receive regular government funding.

Sean Comer and Mark Radulich present their Baz Luhrmanns Red Curtain Trilogy Review. The Red Curtain Trilogy is a DVD boxed set, released in 2002, of the first three films directed by Baz Luhrmann: Strictly Ballroom (1992), starring Paul Mercurio and Tara MoriceRomeo + Juliet (1996), starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire DanesMoulin Rouge! (2001), starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor The films do not form a trilogy in the traditional sense, as there is no relationship between the plot and characters of the three films. Rather, Luhrmann said that the three films followed a specific style of filmmaking. Each film contains a theatre motif that reappears throughout the film. Dance is used in the first film, poetry and language in the second, and song in the third. Baz Luhrmann has coined the term red curtain cinema for his technique of using theatrical conventions to invigorate films to dazzling and dizzying heights, as shown in the three contained in this set: Strictly Ballroom (1993), William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet (1996), and Moulin Rouge (2001). Luhrmann notes the important characteristics of this style: take a well-known myth or fable and set it in a heightened creative world that the audience can participate in. In Strictly Ballroom, it's both David and Goliath and the Ugly Duckling set in the supercharged world of ballroom-dancing competition. For Romeo & Juliet, it's the star-crossed lovers transplanted to modern-day Verona Beach yet still peppered with Shakespeare's iambic pentameter. Moulin Rouge takes the story of Orpheus descending into the underworld in search of love then sets it in 19th-century Paris and adds modern pop songs.

This episode is a reboot of a chat I had with Todd a while back. What am I going to talk to the grumpy judge from Dancing with the Stars about? I wondered. The bloke who wrote and starred in The Boy from Oz? I wondered. The bloke who starred in 42nd Street, The Pirates of Penzance, Camelot, La Cage aux Folles, Singin' in the Rain, Priscilla Queen of the Desert (the musical) and Baz Luhrmann's film, Strictly Ballroom? Well, the answer is.. plenty. We spoke a lot and laughed a lot. He's funny, real and loves dogs (big tick). Of course, he's a talented, successful and well-known performer but more than that, Todd McKenney is a genuinely interesting bloke who's done a sh*t-load, is a brilliant story-teller (no surprise), is great to chat with and I absolutely loved meeting him. Enjoy. toddmckenney.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi pals! There's a new celeb in our mix; Tube Girl is taking over our FYPs (and our hearts). We discuss her meteoric rise to fame and why she's the internet star we need. We also talk about the other Internet Moment of the week, the Roman Empire.  Is it steeped in white supremacy? Or just a silly little meme? We reference a Vox article titled Why The Alt-Right Loves Ancient Rome by Sean Illing and a piece on the Roman Empire trend by Dani Maher for Harper's Bazaar Australia.  Next, a TikTokker has gone viral on Twitter after sharing a conversation she overheard in a cafe. The style influencer posted a video sharing that that morning, as she was at brunch in London, she overheard a group of women bitching about a bride. The video received over two million views and sparked a debate on TikTok surveillance culture.  In recommendations, Jas loved Shameless' In Conversation With Dolly Alderton episode while Maggie has put the 1992 film Strictly Ballroom in her top five movies ever.  That's all for now! Chat soon.  Jas & Mags xo  Katie Zhou created our fab cover art and India Raine is our wonderful editor and composer of our jingle.

Lea Salonga, Claude-Michel Schönberg, Gerard Salonga and Daniel Edmonds discuss the process of working through a piece that isn't going well, what drives them when starting a new project, and the most important things they look for in a performer of musical theatre. Lea Salonga has done everything from playing Kim in the original production of Miss Saigon, to playing Fantine and Éponine in Les Misérables. She has also released 12 of her own albums. Claude-Michel Schönberg is a French record producer, actor, singer and musical theatre composer with a prolific career in music. He is best known for his collaborations with lyricist Alain Boublil and has scored some of the biggest works in musical theatre including Les Misérables, La Révolution Francaise and Miss Saigon. Gerard Salonga is a Filipino conductor, composer and arranger who is currently the resident conductor of the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra in Kuala Lumpur. He started playing piano at the age of five and sang duets with Lea, his sister, for her first album, Small Voice, before going on to study at Berklee College of Music. He's conducted orchestras across the Philippines and has worked with distinguished conductors and composers across the world. Musical director, composer and arranger Daniel Edmonds has written music for both screen and stage. He was the musical director of the musicals King Kong, Strictly Ballroom and Dream Lover, as week as the award-winning show Beautiful: The Carole King Musical. He's also worked closely with Lea on various projects, such as writing the music for her 2020 single Dream Again, which was released to raise funds for Covid-19 charities.

The sound of what we've come to know as "emo" from the insane popularity of bands like Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance and Panic! At The Disco in the 2000s differs pretty wildly from the sound of the bands that spawned the genre. 90s emo is a particular brand of emo - much more moody, more lo-fi, more rooted in punk, hardcore, new wave, and bands like Fugazi. In large part thanks to Nirvana, little scenes began popping up all over small town America throughout the 90s, and seemingly random outcroppings like Boise, ID Mesa, AZ, Kansas City, MO and Milwaukee, WI became hotbeds of guitar driven heart-on-sleeve bands made up of kids getting in touch with their emotions while bashing out some cathartic rock n roll. You didn't have to be there, but it helps and this week's guest was right in the thick of it back in the day as was your humble host.

Episode 219: The history and legacy of William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996) Two households (Baz Lurhmann & 20th Century Fox), both alike in dignity,In fair Verona (Australia / Hollywood), where we lay our scene,From ancient grudge (Strictly Ballroom was a huge success) break to new mutiny, (mutiny = partnership)Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. (there was no blood that I'm aware of)From forth the fatal loins of these two foes (they decided to collaborate, non-fatally)A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life; (They made Romeo + Juliet, which is a tragedy)Whose misadventured piteous overthrows (Kidnappings, illness and storms plagued the set)Doth with their death bury their parents' strife. (As far as I know, everyone's parents were ok with it)The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, (A 72-day shoot culminating in the joint onscreen deaths of both characters)And the continuance of their parents' rage, (Would you want to be a Montague or a Capulet?)Which, but their children's end, nought could remove, (Parents just don't understand!)Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage; (And this movie is exactly two hours long)The which if you with patient ears attend, (48 minutes worth of patient ears, please)What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. (This episode was a labour of love, I hope you enjoy it!)I would love to hear your thoughts on William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996) !CONTACT....

Baz Luhrmann is an Australian director whose debut film, Strictly Ballroom, became one of Australia's most successful releases, and also inspired the title of the BBC's popular Saturday night dance show. He went on to direct Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge!, the Great Gatsby and, more recently, Elvis starring Tom Hanks and Austin Butler. Baz was born Mark Andrew Luhrmann in 1962. His friends nicknamed him Baz after the puppet Basil Brush because of his unruly hair. When he was five the family moved to Herons Creek, a remote settlement in New South Wales. Several years later Baz started ballroom dancing after he picked up a leaflet advertising classes while travelling on a bus. At drama school in Sydney he devised a play called Strictly Ballroom with his fellow students and later wrote a screenplay with his school friend Craig Pearce. The film was screened at the Cannes Film Festival in 1992 where it received a rapturous response and went on to win eight Australian Film Institute awards and three BAFTAs. Baz's most recent film, Elvis, tells the life of Elvis Presley from the perspective of his infamous manager Colonel Tom Parker, played by Tom Hanks. The film has been a commercial success – making almost $300 million around the world to date. In addition to making feature films Baz has directed theatre and opera productions. He lives mainly in New York with his wife and frequent collaborator, the production designer Catherine Martin, and their two children.

This is a blockbuster Table Manners episode. Having seen Romeo + Juliet 7 times in the cinema, and frequently quoting Strictly Ballroom, to have the genius, Baz Luhrmann in our kitchen was an absolute honour. Both of us are huge fans of his work so we were thrilled to ask him a hundred questions about Elvis, Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge and all the other brilliant projects he has been involved in. Baz whirlwinded into Lennie's for some baked salmon, wine and a barrel of laughs. We talk about his love of ballroom dancing, good luck pearls from Australia, on set catering, Elvis & his obsession with a caviar.Thank you so much Baz. We LOVED the Elvis movie and we loved having two precious hours with you. X Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Exactly two of auteur Baz Luhrmann's movies interest Rose: Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge. Fran's fandom runs deeper, and they forced Rose to watch Strictly Ballroom for the making of this episode They also discuss their qualms with Elvis, touch on Gatsby and sing a lot Plus, Fran's trip to the Chromatica Ball, Gaga set list analysis from resident Little Monster Rose, a PSA from Fran to NOT watch Secret Celebrity Drag Race, the A League of Their Own reboot, and the Kim Petras leaked album post about how Moulin Rouge shaped you and tag our finsta @likeavirgin42069See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
