A SELF-PROFESSED druid priestess has said a Melbourne bar
refused to let her in because of her age and the mistaken belief that
she was Jewish.
Morgan, 51, who uses only one
name, has told the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal that
crowd controllers at the Cushion Lounge in bayside St Kilda denied her
entry when she went there about 1.30am on Monday, December 12 last

But the staff and the bar’s manger claim a private function that night was the reason for refusing entry.
Former manager and part-owner Daniel Centofanti said he could not
prove there was a function booked because he had sold the business in

Mr Centofanti denied his business was discriminatory, though its
regular Saturday night crowd was young “trendsetters” in their 20s and
30s.
