Another year – though what a strange year – and another AACTA Awards, and they too were a little strange, though some would say they always are. Due to Australia’s current good luck and good management of the pandemic, an actual physical AACTA Awards Ceremony was possible yesterday (Monday 30 November), presented by Foxtel at the The Star Sydney event centre.
With social distancing in place, this came complete with red carpet, fancy frocks, musical performances by the likes of Tim Minchin (who won Best Comedy Performer) and lots of local talent in attendance to present and accept awards, in amidst the now-requisite sprinkling of homely pre-recorded segments.
