Stage Fright! by Richard Tulloch based on the stories of Paul Jennings | 12 - 28 January
Kick off 2012 with some (spooky) family holiday entertainment!
Paul Jennings’ delightful stories of the bizarre and the ridiculous have made him one of Australia’s most popular authors of children’s books. Round the Twist saw them adapted for television. Now acclaimed playwright Richard Tulloch has turned them into an outrageous and hilarious theatrical adventure. Stage Fright! brings together the quirkiest, funniest and most spine-tingling of Paul Jennings’ stories to create great family entertainment. It’s ideal for ages 7 – 13 and the perfect summer treat.
The Temperamentals by Jon Marans | 7 February - 3 March
Long before Stonewall, a few brave men spoke up. In the closeted USA of the early 1950s, ‘temperamental’ was code for ‘homosexual’, part of a secret language that gay men used to communicate. The Temperamentals is the story of Harry Hay and Rudi Gernreich, who fell in love while forming America’s first gay rights organisation, The Mattachine Society. History is brought to life in this intelligent, sexy and entertaining mix of politics, camp humour and emotional candour. An official Sydney Mardi Gras event.
