Performing Pippin Pearmain 4

By Lark Westerly

Pippin Pearmain was back from her Experience over there in the place she thought of as fairyland. The lull in excitement was short-lived, because she was due at a film studio for a screen test. Two days at the guesthouse brought new acquaintances, a reunion with her friend, Jane, and an extraordinary offer from a part-time spaniel.

Pippin Pearmain leaves her beloved Lemonwood Cottage in the care of the cats and Cousin Clarkia while she flies to Sydney for her first screen test in decades. A new role, a new agent and a new challenge await, but Pip is sixty-six and she's not sure a comeback is what she wants. Behind her lies a comfortable but eccentric life of performing in offbeat roles, and a decade of living alone. She's short of family and friends, but she has the surprisingly conversational cats, the cottage, and her memories. She has her bucket list and plans for an interesting personal project involving an album and decoupage. Is that enough? Or should she jump feet-first into her new role and see where a comeback takes her?

Pip's few days in Sydney teem with new possibilities, none of which involve decoupage. Mind you, she'll get to that sometime, once she's sorted out two ballets, a film, and a festival.
