Sylvia Keays portrays Sophie - witty, whimsical and utterly heartbroken. In Blind Tasting, she shares her hilarious coming of age story, as she navigates love, loss and the realisation that none of us really knows what_x0019_ s going to happen next. Breathe in the atmosphere of the evocative Medina Treasury Tunnels, and join Sophie in a glass, as she tastes life and discovers the most unexpected pleasures. Part performance, part wine tasting, this is the latest work by Sydney_x0019_ s critically acclaimed subtlenuance. _x001C_ a small, fiercely independent company of proven integrity& [their work] augurs well, not only for subtlenuance_x0019_ s future as a distinctive, important, independent voice in Australian theatre, but for the future of Australian theatre at large._x001D_ Australian Stage. For Blind Tasting, subtlenuance is proud to bring together two extraordinary artists, writer director Paul Gilchrist and actor Sylvia Keays. Paul Gilchrist is one of Sydney_x0019_ s most vibrant and engaging writer directors. _x001C_ Like Stoppard, Gilchrist is great with words... obviously a playwright worth watching_x001D_ Media Culture. _x0018_ So cleverly interwoven with perceptive questioning is his writing that you begin to feel as though Gilchrist's understanding of the human psyche is on a different more-in-tuned level_x001D_ The Blurb. _x001C_ I can't really bring to mind the last time I laughed as loud and, almost amidst it, felt the agony of intense, searing tragedy_x001D_ Australian Stage. Sylvia Keays is one of Sydney_x0019_ s most exciting actors. Theatrically trained from AADA Los Angeles, she has worked in contemporary & classical theatre, film and TV both in LA and Sydney. "Sylvia Keays gives the production's most nuanced and enticing performance as middle child Regan" Back Stage West LA. "Sylvia Keays radiates compassion and indestructible optimism as Anya" OC Register. "Sylvia Keays_x0019_ vampy widow Elena Ivanovna Popova was a delight to watch" Australian Stage. subtlenuance is proud to bring these two extraordinary artists together again after their hugely successful collaboration on Paul_x0019_ s 2011 play Toy Box. _x001C_ drenched in an exceptional ability to observe human behavior and thought. & ..This play could be staged anywhere in the world and it will resonate with the audience._x001D_ Ticket Stubbies.
