Ian Michael spent the last week of February in Canberra shooting a short film "Where are the Warriors" with Richard Jameson of Wirrim Films. The following quote from Richard tells it all about the potential of this fine young actor.

'Ian was very professional and we totally enjoyed the experience of working with him.  Most of my crew are professional film makers and all were very impressed by his work ethic.  It was commented that we think we have just worked with a break through actor who will do very well in the near future'.

'Waltzing the Wilarra'  opened on Saturday 5 February to an enthusiastic audience with cheers , loud clapping and a standing ovation at the conclusion.  The show has also received great reviews with this from the West Australian: 

This is a terrific production and Wesley Enoch has marshalled a powerful, charismatic cast.  All the performers are outstanding, with Jamieson and Yovich remarkable both as the young, talented Charlie and Elsa of the 1940s and the haunted old couple half a century later.

Don't miss this wonderful production - seats are selling fast so book early or you might miss out. 'Waltzing the Wilarra' closes on to 6 March 2011
