About The Cast
Abbie Cardwell
In her very first diary entry at the age of 10 Abbie decided she was going to be a dancer, actress and singer when she grew up. Dancing soon gave way to her acting addiction which led her to study acting at the Flinders University Drama Centre.
This soon gave way to the love of her life, music. With her guitar, banjo, harmonica and "voice of a homesick angel". Abbie continues her passion for performing her own compositions around the world. Already, Abbie has received accolades from Triple J Unearthed to the USA BMI Songwriting Awards in Hawaii.
Abbie's latest album By Hook Or By Crook is due out nationally in Sept. '07
But it is here in Everything's Fucked that Abbie, for the first time, can marry her love of singing and acting in one project.
André Eikmeier
André always dreamed of being in a musical called Everything’s F**ked. Really truly. And he was willing to do anything to get there.
Such TV highlights as A Country Practice at age 8, Pacific Drive, Breakers, Bambaloo and Beastmaster, playing half-man, half-horse (ahem) were just stepping stones in his higher quest. Even the ill-fated, straight-to-video soft porn film “All The Way” was just character research for the mighty, mighty Jack.
His schlepping about the Sydney gig scene with bands Hollywood Horns, One Hit Wonders and Supernatural, comedy act Mad Cow Lounge and regular appearances on Good Morning Australia – these were all in the pursuit of loftier goals.
Even his two children Kalen and Lulu were conceived just to gain curry and simpatico with the writer. Well, it’s all paid off. Here he is. Everything is indeed f**ked, but in the “I’m 16 and I just got f**ked!!” way, not the “my house just got repossessed and my wife is really a terrorist” way. Which is therefore GOOD!! Everything’s great!!
