IOTA Gets Sleazy

iOTA has never been to a Sleaze Ball before so he is hoping his performance at this year’s Game On event will be one the crowds talk about for a long time to come.

Although the six-time ARIA nominee and Helpmann Award-winning actor is excited about his debut, iOTA admits Sleaze Ball’s Game On theme will be a challenge. iOTA admits to have never been much of a sportsman, so says he finds the whole concept difficult to grasp.

iOTA is also rehearsing for the Griffin Theatre’s production of References to Salvador Dali Make Me Hot.

Opening at the SBW Stables Theatre on Friday, 25 September, this José Rivera play tells a sizzling story of love, lust and the conflicts of war.

iOTA plays a coyote hungry for love and sex and food, trying to entice a house cat out into the desert to remind her of the wild side of life that she’s missing out on.

On top of his Sleaze Ball and acting duties, iOTA will play with his band, Jungle Hammer, at the Vanguard in October, and is also co-writing a show for Spiegeltent as part of the 2010 Sydney Festival.

Sleaze Ball is on Saturday, October 3, from 9pm. Second-release tickets are on sale through Ticketek.

References to Salvador Dali Make Me Hot opens on Friday, September 25. Bookings on 8002 4772.
