18 Months of One Night Stands

It was real, funny and I couldn't put it down, great read.

Heart, Humour, and the Magic of Theatre

Reading 18 Months of One Night Stands feels like sitting down for a long coffee with an old friend who just happens to be a theatre icon. Dolores Dunbar takes us on a wonderful journey from her far north Queensland roots to the bright lights of the stage, proving that "making it" is possible for anyone with enough heart, passion and perseverance. What I loved most was her honesty. Dolores doesn’t sugarcoat the industry; she shares her mistakes with a generosity that allows us to learn alongside her. Filled with incredible theatre lore and practical tips, this book is a gift to the Australian arts scene. We are so lucky to have a legend like Dolores sharing her wisdom and giving back to young aspiring artists which she has continued to do so gracefully for the past 30 years.

I think the title of the book is very appropriate.
