The holy aura surrounding Randwick racecourse doesn’t run as far as Moore Park,
it seems, with the red carpet guest list for the opening night of Dralion – a Cirque du Soleil production – looking positively sinful.
From television thugs to those who have faced real-life criminal charges, the RSVP list for tonight’s event includes Underbelly actors Gyton Grantley and Les Hill and Bra Boy gangsta Koby Abberton (accompanied by his girlfriend, the model Tahyna Tozzi).
Other more mundane guests joining the red carpet rogues gallery are social circuit veterans Sonia McMahon and Ita Buttrose, actors Hugo Weaving and Claudia Karvan, sass & bide fashion designers Sarah-Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton, Ksubi designers George Gorrow and Dan Single and the usual suspects from the small screen and radio networks.
