Great Rocks Tour and Amazing Guide.
Our guide has to be one of the most enthusiastic and engaging guides I have ever met. This tour was a very nicely priced great way to get an overview of the rocks area, and although I have done other tours here, I learnt new things and saw new places, which I wasn't sure was possible. I enjoyed myself immensely.

Great Experience
I thoroughly enjoyed this night. Tour guide was informative and totally enthuisiastic in her story telling. Her passion for history was clearly evident mixed in with some great humour that you just had to laugh at. I would totally recommend this tour to anyone into historical true crime.

Great Night Experience for Something a Bit Different
This tour was fantastic!! We toured around some really interesting unknown alleyways around the Rocks area and we were guided by an amazing, insightful and great storytelling guide. Would highly recommend for the local looking for something a bit different or a tourist looking to explore the area with a bit of history and true crime thrill to go with it.
Sometimes I think I listen to too many true crime podcasts. 😄 May be influencing my writing.
Or perhaps I am getting in the mode for my next two theatre experiences with darkstoriessydney!
This is is my poem, written in a Rondine #poetryform. Thanks to talented poets, my friends Mike mikejdennis5 Elle 5cand1e__lie5 for tags to write a piece in this form. 💚
Please read my poem twice.
The first time, read it with a romantic feel, it’s full of 💗love and matching jewellery gifts, watching his girl as she sleeps etc
Then… read it with the POV from an obsessed stranger. 🖤
I would love to see if my story of what’s happening is clear to you. Please write in the comments what’s happening!
A #rodine is a 12 line 8-10 syllable / line poem. Lines 7 and 12 are the opening reprise from line 1.
Rhyming - abba abR abbaR
Writing this was very enjoyable! Give the Rondine a try ✨💚Tagging a few but as always, open to all!

Finally getting around to admitting that the Sydney season of `The Secrets of Carmichael Manor` is done and dusted. Or should I say done and poisoned?
Thank you so much to everyone who made the trip to Experiment Farm Cottage, and supported this show. And thank you to my incredible cast - gary_leonard_belshaw, erica.nelson.stories, matt.mcdk_guitar, & captainbenmerica - who all went above and beyond to help me bring this little story to life.
I definitely struck lightning with this incredible, brilliant and talented group of humans, and I am so very grateful.
I couldn`t have asked for a better Original Cast for the premiere of my very first full-length play.
No matter where this play goes from here, any future actors will definitely have tough shoes to fill.
My heart is indeed very full 💙🩷❤️

So... I wrote an immersive play!
THE SECRETS OF CARMICHAEL MANOR is coming to Parramatta from 13th - 22nd October.
Come along to Experiment Farm Cottage and immerse yourself in an hour of murdery, time-travelling mayhem.
Here`s hoping you`ll make it back, all in one piece.
