Marcus Westbury Writes...

Hey Folks,Just a quick (and final!) reminder that Not Quite Art FINALLY goes to air TUESDAY night [Oct 16]on the ABC at 10pm for the next three weeks. The Age's Green Guide have listed NQA is this week's PICK OF THE WEEK and according to Jim Schembri, "Not Quite Art is the freshest, most illuminating, thoughtful and funny locally made arts program in years." (Ok, so that may not be the most competitive category going around, but still!) Over at The Sydney Morning Herald Robin Oliver has nominated "this extremely watchable series" as their SHOW OF THE WEEK. They also printed this excellent story about it in the TV Guide.Now, if all that sounds like it's carefully selected and mad crazy positive well it is. For the sake of balance I should warn you that over at The Australian Giles Auty described my views as "resolutely juvenile", said that I was "play[ing] the part of a disillusioned teenager on television" and that I should be congratulated for "being granted 90 minutes of good TV time to explore his grievances against the adult world." Well, you can't win them all! Anyhow, if you are in Melbourne, please come along to our LAUNCH PARTY at:Horse Bazaar,397 Little Lonsdale Street,Melbournefrom about 9pm (Tuesday 16th) - the show is on at 10pm. If you aren't in Melbourne watch it on TV! Afterwards, feel free to email me and let me know what you think.Thanks, Marcus.
