In her ground-breaking theatrical appearances, she often enquires if her audience members live in nice homes ("...well, Possum, you can afford it...you've saved on clothes..."), if their homes are attached to other people's homes (in Mooney Ponds everyone has their own home), and if they have a shag on the stairs (I mean carpet, of course! Don't twist my words!).
She even explored the nooks and crannies of her audience members' homes in her fabulous TV show "Dame Edna's Neighbourhood Watch". Lucky little darlings!
And this summer, Dame Edna will be lending a touch of glittering gladioli glamour to the home of the Sitwell family - Renishaw Hall in Derbyshire!
The gorgeous possums at Renishaw have added a Dame Edna exhibit to their stately home this summer. Visitors will be able to enjoy a showcase of Edna's costumes, accessories, and photographs. How exciting!
After wandering around the home and grounds of Renishaw, groups of bewildered senior citizens will be so grateful to discover the exhibit featuring their favourite international phenomenon and swami.After all, if you've got a choice between a gilded portrait of a crusty old ancestor, or an Australian Gigastar, you're going to choose the Gigastar every time!!!
So quicksticks, Possums! Clear your schedule and make your way to Renishaw Hall soon! Who knows...there might even be incidents of healing. Edna often has that effect on people - they're finding discarded canes in the aisles of her theatres all the time - and Renishaw could be the next Lourdes!!!
With Dame Edna memorabilia at the V&A Museum in London as well, it seems Edna is on the cutting-edge of exhibitions these days! It won't be long before her best friend Lillibet begs her to lend some diamonds and frocks to a summer exhibit at Buckingham Palace. Well, someone's got to give the place a little glamour....
