Tabrett in a play: Savage In Limbo

Tabrett was in a play this week, called Savage In Limbo. It was directed by Tahyna Tozzi, the rest of the cast included Trilby Glover, David Coussins, Alexander DiPersia and Tahyna Tozzi. The last show was on the 13th.

The play's description:
"The setting is a slightly seedy neighborhood bar in the Bronx, where a group of regulars (who all happen to be the same age—thirty-two) seek relief from the disappointments and tedium of the outside world. The first to arrive is Denise Savage, a perennial loner who announces that she is still a virgin, but would like to remedy the situation. She is joined by an old school friend, Linda Rotunda, whose problem has been the opposite—too many lovers (and illegitimate children) but who is now fearful that her current boyfriend, Tony Aronica, is losing interest in her. And when the macho Tony comes bursting in shortly thereafter and announces that he is leaving her to pursue "ugly girls," girls who have read books and can teach him something, Linda is desolate. Denise, sensing an advantage, makes a play for Tony, and the action quickens, moving swiftly from zany comedy to tense confrontation which requires the muscle and mediating skills of the taciturn bartender, Murk, who, heretofore, had been content to keep the glasses filled, including that of his mixed-up girlfriend, April, a failed nun who is also a classmate of the others. In the end, tensions subside, Linda recaptures Tony, Murk proposes to April, and only Denise remains as she was—still in the limbo of loneliness from which she so desperately wants to escape."

Tabrett didn't win Fangoria's Chainsaw Award

I’m sad to announce that Tabrett Bethell did not win Fangoria’s Chainsaw Award in the Best Actress category. :( She finished 4th, Rose Byrne received the most votes, Pollyanna McIntosh finished second.

Here's the complete list of the winners and the runners-up: http://www.fangoria.com/index.php/moviestv/fearful-features/7379-the-2012-fangoria-chainsaw-awards-results

Vote for Tabrett in the 2012 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards!

Great news, Tabrett has been nominated for the Best Actress Award for her performance in The Clinic! Now we have to help her win!

The nomination is mentioned on her IMDb page too.

Rules from the Fangoria site:

While the majors struggled to give us enough fright features worthy of best-of-the-year nominations, 2011 offered a bloody good crop of indie releases—so many that for the first time, we’ve established a Best Foreign-Language Film category to honor them all. (As usual, we’re holding off on citing a few films, like A Lonely Place To Die, until they receive wider U.S. disc exposure.) And we’ve expanded to six nominees per category to include all the fine work on screen last year. Now it’s time for you to name your favorites.
E-mail your choices—one list only per person, please—to postalzone@starloggroup.com This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please be sure to vote in all categories; personal e-mails only, no mass ballots.

Deadline for ballots is April 25; winners will be announced in Fango #315, on sale in June, and at this site the same month.

Tabrett's profile at Showcast, the leading casting service in Australia

Showcast.com.au/Showcast/TabrettBethell

There is contact information for the RGM Artist Group, Tabrett's Australian agency, you can also see 2 photos, the list of her credits and some information about her (most of it isn't new though).

Professional Skills: Actor, Model
Type of Model Work: Body, Commercial, Hair, Hands, Legs, Promotional, Teeth

The film titles in her credits are outdated, Anyone You Want was originally called Freestyle, and Mei Li Johnson became Strangers Lovers Killers.

A higher resolution version of the picture which was released on the AFI site in 2010:

Tabrett in a short film: The Swallow trailer

Don't get your hopes up, she's only in this clip for about 1 second, but it's better than nothing.

The short film was directed by Gabriel Dowrick, who is also the editor of Sanctuary. Sadly, I've only been able to find 3 trailers (the others don't have more of Tabrett either), and it's not listed on IMDb and it can't be found on Gabriel's official site either. Tabrett plays the beggar. My buest guess is that this was never released, I'll try to find out more about it though. It was probably shot in 2010.

Go to 0:43 to see her. Or: https://vimeo.com/36590939


From the description:
'The Swallow' is an ultra-violent hyper-reality film about a boudoir, its proprietor and his fall from grace. After recently discovering some previously unknown details about his families past, Atilol feels compelled to change his life, which has thus far been rather lax in moral. It is this 'change' that has a great effect on the people he loves and those that frequent his establishment as they grapple with the daily troubles of a constant hedonism, and the eternal fear of a life lived alone.

Written and produced by Bradley Tomlinson. Directed by Gabriel Dowrick. Photographed by Marc Windon.

Trailer edited by Kannika Thongsaeng.

Tabrett Bethell's audition video

I'm sorry I haven't reported about this before but I have been trying to get permission to talk about it, didn't want to post anything too early, not going to make that mistake again. But it's out of the bag now, so here you go.

I'm not sure what the story behind this video is but it looks like an audition for the next James Bond film, which is called Bond 23 for now. Not much is known about the film itself and we don't know everything about the casting either, but since the video was posted several months ago I guess Tabrett didn't get the role. I'm keeping my fingers crossed though until they'll announce something.

On the other hand, it could be what is called a "speculative audition" or showreel, agents and actors do this to get the actor out there.

And to clear things up, no, it was not an audition for Casino Royale. That film was released in 2006, before Tabrett started acting, and the video was uploaded earlier this year, in April. Yes, she is saying the lines from that film but it's not uncommon for productions which are secretive to use material from previous films. We don't know anything about Bond 23's story or who the female lead character will be or who will play her. Makes sense to test an actress with an earlier, strong character. Maybe they chose Vesper because the new one will be related or similar to her (but this is just my speculation, and I read some comments from Bond fans who'd love to see Vesper's sister).

Originally posted here: http://vimeo.com/22426028 Please, do not flood the account with messages. It could be Tabrett's own but it could've been set up by her agent too, anyway, don't go crazy. :)

Tabrett is co-starring in "Poe", ABC's new pilot!

Great news about Tabrett, it's a big opportunity for her! If ABC picks up the show, she will be on network tv in a hopefully successful show. It could also mean lots of new pictures for us, fans, and probably some interviews too. And I'm sure we'd all be very happy if she decided to join twitter to promote the show a bit more. :)


"Poe" is a new crime procedural TV series that will follow Edgar Allan Poe, the world's very first detective, as he uses unconventional methods to investigate dark mysteries in 1840s Boston.

It has an element of Guy Ritchie’s version of Sherlock Holmes, an element of steampunk and a real sense of fun. This is before Poe’s darkest days. He has a sense of humor; he’s a believer surrounded by skeptics. The show in some ways bears a resemblance to Castle.

The cast:
Tabrett Bethell - Sarah: Poe's ex fiancée
Christopher Egan - Poe
Kevin McNally - Police Commissioner Kyle Kilpatrick
Leslie Odom, Jr. - Julian 'Jupiter' Noble: a doctor at a free clinic who helps Poe


Director: Alex Graves (long list of impressive work, many nominations and awards, including 2 Emmys)
Writer-executive producer: Christopher Hollier (Alias, Kyle XY)
Executive producers: Dan Lin (Sherlock Holmes films, Terminator Salvation, The Departed) and Brad Kern (Human Target, Charmed)

ABC is looking at Poe to become a full series, but as of yet only a pilot has been green-lit. They'll be shooting from March 14 to March 31 in Toronto.

Charity Drive via the Tabrett Bethell Appreciation Project!

The awesome people behind the project recently asked for help in covering expenses and within days they had all that they needed and then some! Tabrett and Legend of the Seeker fans are amazing! They had said that any surplus beyond expenses would go to charity, but since it happened so quickly, they're not stopping there.

Now they're raising funds to go to a charity in Tabrett's hometown of Sydney, Australia, in her name! Tabrett will surely be thrilled at such a gesture done on her behalf! (They'll include notice of the final donation in the scrapbook to her.)

They're researching charities right now, and will keep everybody posted on who gets the nod. But whether you were able to submit something to the scrapbook Project or not, everyone is welcome to give a little or alot to the charity fund now, via the Project's PayPal account. Let's show Tabrett what her fans are made of, and turn her inspiring performances into an inspiration to help others.

This way to donate!

Current Total: $761.00 USD

This total is all going to charity!

Article about Tabrett in the Herald Sun

I've got the full article right here, it's quite short, but it's nice. Makes you wish Tabrett gave interviews more often.
