.Lets Not Venture Into Hyperbole - Actresses hit streets of Hampstead
.Tuesday 26th May, 2009................................................................Internet
A comic film aimed at the older female audience is being shot in Hampstead’s bohemian streets.

Starring Toyah Willcox, The Power of Three centres on three women in their 50s who team up to transform their lives and fulfil their lifelong ambitions.

Filmed primarily in Hampstead and Belsize Park, the film promises to showcase the highlights of north London as well as celebrating the power of friendship and community.

Producer Ann Cameron said: “The story is all about our shared experiences. We’ve all been there, and we look at life in the same way.”

Ms Willcox plays Michelle, a struggling film director who is finding it hard to crack the highly competitive old boys’ network of the film business.

Friends Olivia and Lizzie, played by award-winning actresses Brümilda van Rensburg and Robin Craig, decide to pool their strengths to help Michelle realise her dreams.

In a case of art imitating life, the plot bears an unmistakable resemblance to the making of the film where the trio of female producers Ms Cameron, Yvonne Deutschman and Thereza Snyman decided it was time to tackle the lack of feature films portraying older women.

Ms Cameron, originally from Canada, said: “We realised that no-one was making movies for people like us, so the inevitable question was – what are we going to do about it?”

In the past five years they have worked to turn an original idea into a script, canvassing support among fellow film professionals and coming up with the simple concept of dividing out proceeds according to the contributions.

South African entrepeneur Ms Snyman said: “Everyone involved takes ownership of the project, because they are the project.

“The enthusiasm and commitment is amazing.”

After the groundbreaking success of Calendar Girls and Mamma Mia, two films that dared to cast older actresses in leading roles as opposed to the usual character parts, it seems the film industry is finally grasping the potential of older women.

Ms Deutschman said: “If we’d been doing this two years ago we wouldn’t have had as much interest, but now the over-50s is rapidly becoming a proven film-going audience.”

The Power of Three will premiere in London in the autumn.

This year's diversity festival was in a new location with Dickson Road in front of Funny Girls chosen to be at the heart of the action. The road was closed off to traffic so a stage could be created which hosted live acts including eighties singers Toyah Willcox and Hazell Dean and SClub 7's Jo O'Meara.

.Round Town News - RTN Exclusive Interview with Toyah
.Thursday 21st May, 2009..........................................................Press Clips
RTN was given an exclusive interview when Toyah appeared in the Sparkles Showbar, Yumbo Centre, Playa del Ingles.  A softly spoken and incredibly nice lady, Toyah had this to say to our reporter:

Toyah, have you ever visited Gran Canaria before?  And what made you take up the offer? This is the first time I've been to Gran Canaria, and when Sparkles Showbar asked me to take part in their Gay Pride celebrations I welcomed the opportunity.  It was good fun riding on the float this afternoon and seeing my many fans.

Have you managed to see anything of the island whilst here? No, only the hotel room, as usual!

Where is your next tour and when? Firstly it's back to the UK, where I have a number of tours organised throughout the country at various festivals and big parks, then I'm off to Seattle to write another album, then on tour again in the US.  Autumn will find me back in the UK to start the new Vampires Rock show.

.Blackpool Gazette - Toyah meets The Producers
.Thursday 21st May, 2009..........................................................Press Clips
Leading men Chris Campbell and Andy Figg from the hit musical The Producers, met Toyah Willcox during their joint appearance at the Blackpool Pride performance last weekend. Toyah who has herself starred in musicals in Blackpool, was keen to offer Chris and Andy some professional words of advice before they take to the Grand Theatre stage in July.

The Premier Theatre Company production of The Producers is being choreographed by Simon Green, aka Betty Legs Diamond, who will also make a cameo appearance in every performance of the show.

The company has also recently been joined by Charlotte Dalton, a professional singer dancer born in Preesall, who is taking a couple of months out from her professional career to join The Producers team as leading lady, Ulla, played by Uma Thurman in the 2003 film.

Sarah Jane Stone, director of the production said: “I am really excited the way the cast are working together and it is becoming increasingly difficult to rehearse such a humorous piece of theatre. I can guarantee our audiences will be laughing from the opening lines.”

The company has invited a number of celebrities to the opening night as well as several of our own local comedians to the final performance.

Jodie Prenger, who won the part of Nancy in the West End’s Oliver! starred in the company’s production of Mack and Mabel in 2000 and is hoping to return to meet the cast and audience on the final performance.

The Producers runs from July 7 - 12 for eight performances and tickets are on sale at the Grand Theatre box office (01253) 290190.

Last night, and coincidentally on her birthday, Toyah finally made an appearance in Ashes to Ashes, with not one but two posters. They used a picture from a 1982 issue of 'Smash Hits' and a European Tour poster with the 'Thunder In The Mountains' image. This was episode five of series two.

.Anchoress - Region 2 DVD Cover
.Tuesday 19th May, 2009..............................................................Releases

Directed by Chris Newby (Madagascar Skin) and starring Pete Postlewaithe and Christopher Eccleston, Anchoress is a visually arresting story of religious conflict set in the Middle Ages.

Starring: Natalie Morse, Gene Bervoets, Toyah Willcox, Pete Postlethwaite, Christopher Eccleston, Michael Pas, Brenda Bertin, Annette Badland, Veronica Quilligan & Julie T. Wallace.

.Sunday Mirror: Me & My Passport: Toyah Willcox
.Monday 18th May, 2009............................................................Press Clips
Here's a short Q&A interview with Toyah, from January 1998. Again it's just a random article but she does mention Estonia, a place currently very relevant due to its connection with The Humans!

Actress, singer and TV presenter Toyah Willcox films reports for the BBC Holiday Programme.

How many visa stamps are in your passport?
I have a very thick ten-year passport which always gets questioned when I go to Israel. They think I must be a terrorist because I also have a Polish visa. I get interrogated every time, even though they know me - I have a hit satellite show in Israel. I have lots of American visa stamps because my husband, who's a musician, works in Los Angeles (inset) for two weeks a month, and I pop over to see him all the time.

What is your favourite place to visit?
It would have to be Estonia, where I will be making a movie this year. It's sensational, totally unspoiled. Amazingly it's full of Scottish people who went there three years ago for a football match that never happened - and they never came home. There are lots of Scottish pubs and you can live there on about pounds 10 a week. Israel is also fantastic. It's never dull and is full of extremes. On my last visit I was filming for the BBC's Holiday Programme and I had to live like a nomad in the Negev desert for six days. Then I'd pop back to Eilat to have a bath and it was like being in Las Vegas.

What was your worst experience?
I was touring in Poland five years ago and it was difficult getting food. And when you turned taps on all that came out was sludge, so no-one used the bath. There was also a huge alcohol problem.

What is your favourite form of transport?
I love flying. Yachts are awful because you get stuck with people. I can be anonymous on a plane.

Who is your ideal travelling companion?
I like travelling on my own, I'm a very insular person. I just love getting on a plane with magazines and a good book.

What essentials would you never leave behind?
A handbag and a toothbrush. Once I went to LA and that's all I took because I have clothes at my husband's place. Customs were very suspicious because I didn't have a suitcase.

.Tuner Update
.Monday 18th May, 2009 • Thanks to Craig........................................Music
An update to our recent Tuner album news - it seems that the guest vocalist on the song 'Imur' isn't Toyah after all.. She does appear on the, previously mentioned, track 'On Bass'- as a sample - heavily edited snippets of Toyah announcing The Humans on stage when they played together in 2007.

.Toyah guests on Tuner album MUUT
.Wednesday 13th May, 2009 • Thanks to Stephen.............................Music
Toyah is guest vocalist on the Tuner song 'Imur' from the recently released live album 'MUUT (Live in Estonia 2007)'.

Tuner supported The Humans during their Estonia gigs back in 2007, which is probably where and when Toyah provided the vocals

A review of the album says ‘The darkly beautiful "Imur" is languid in its pace, with angelic vocals from (I think) the woefully underrated Toyah Willcox.

Toyah also contributes to another song, 'On Bass', on the album. This is confirmed here.

There are reviews of the album
here and here. It is also available to buy via Amazon, and there is information about it at the DGM website.

.Sunday 10th May, 2009 • Thanks to John....................................Live/Gigs
Toyah appeared on the Main Stage at Maspalomas/Gran Canaria Pride on Friday night. She played 'School's Out, 'It's A Mystery', and 'I Want To Be Free' and came back onstage for 'We Are Family' with the other guests (see video below).

Yesterday Toyah was on the Sparkles Showbar float during the street parade with 'It's A Mystery', 'Be Proud Be Loud (Be Heard)' and 'I Want To Be Free' played during the procession. Not only that but they replayed 'It's A Mystery' and Toyah sang over the track to the delight of the crowds.

Next up Toyah will be doing a PA at the aformentioned Sparkes Showbar tonight (onstage @ 10.30pm), the closing night of the Pride event.

.HoLEY vOid / FM on DVD
.Sunday 10th May, 2009 • Thanks to Michael/Paul.........................Internet
You may remember back in October 2007 the Official Toyah website, and Dreamscape, mentioned that Toyah would be guesting in the online/podcast sitcom HoLEY vOid - The full six episodes are now available to download or listen to at the HoLEY vOid website. Each hour-long episode is also available at iTunes. Toyah plays Dusty Strangefield in Episode Four.

HoLEY vOid is the inimitable audio sitcom with a twist of variety performance.
The setting is 'HoLEY vOid', a glamorous Earth tribute entertainment venue on a spaceship.

The stellar musical guests are alien tribute acts to themselves!

The core characters who run the HoLEY vOid (a flying telepathic cocktail waiter, a multi-armed cyborg and a lone human) battle baddies or solve a mystery - with help or hindrance from the cast and special guest stars.

Paul Daniels, Debbie McGee, Toyah Willcox and Ruth Madoc join the adventure in Normal Space.

Escape to a place where the credit crunch is HoLEY vOid...

• In other Toyah related sitcom news - the complete first series of FM has just been released on DVD - For completists only I would assume as Toyah's guest appearance, in Episode Two, lasts around 10 seconds!

.The Humans - Update
.Sunday 3rd May, 2009......................................................................Music
• The Humans played their album launch gig in Estonia on Friday evening. Reports say that the concert went well.

• Unfortunately availability of 'We Are The Humans' has been slightly delayed.

• Remember The Eighties, the website the album is exclusively available through until it is released on iTunes, issued this information:

Thank you so much for pre-ordering the new album from Toyah / Bill Reiflin / Chris Wong's new project 'The Humans'.

In a perfect world the albums would be all packed up right now ready to be posted to you in the morning, however it turns out that the world is not quite perfect and although the jiffy bags are all addressed and stacked up, I still haven't actually received the albums from the pressing plant. Apparently a printing problem has meant that a whole new set of covers has had to be printed which has led to delays with the delivery.

The albums are due to be delivered any day now (I'm afraid that at the moment I can't be more specific than that) and will be packed and shipped out to you as soon as possible, but it only seemed fair to warn you that they might not be shipped tomorrow as planned. Sorry... [Thanks to Minna]

• Toyah was also namechecked in Mod For It! an article on Quadrophenia in Thursday's
