Coram Boy

Event Date: 26/11/2019, 07:00 pm

CORAM BOY - adapted for the stage by Helen Edmundson
Epic, Heart-breaking Tale of Love, Loss & Redemption
bAKEHOUSE Theatre and KXT present CORAM BOY – Nov 22 to Dec 7

“The silk on your back, the sugar in your tea, all of this - all wealth is built on the suffering of others”

From Broadway and London’s West End comes this spell-binding adaptation of Jamila Gavin’s best-selling novel – in its Australian premiere at the Kings Cross Theatre (KXT) from 22 November.

Spanning three generations, Coram Boy is at once a glorious love story and an epic thriller - a heart-breakingly beautiful tale of mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, children lost and found, betrayal and murder. And the redemption that love brings.

On the cusp of the Industrial Revolution, the wealth of England’s aristocracy is built on slavery - and children are its commodities.
Alexander and Meshak yearn for a world of beauty and music, a world they can barely touch before it is snatched away again.
Melissa and Thomas must make the best of their limited options, but friendship with the wealthy Ashbrook family may provide as many dangers as opportunities. Aaron and Toby, abandoned as babies, long to know where they came from.
All will eventually come to know the Coram Man, who takes unwanted children and saves desperate women from ruin… but what does he ask in return?

Co-Director John Harrison says: “We wanted to stage something grand in our intimate theatre, but also something that makes us take stock of how we stand as a community today.
It’s 300 years after the time of the play but child slavery is on the rise.
Coram Boy is also a great play for the end of the year –
it features events around the first public performance of Handel’s Messiah in 1742 and traditionally performed at Christmas – and I think this is a perfect time to come together to share a story that considers how we treat the most vulnerable members of our community.”

Our Town

Event Date: 22/11/2019, 07:30 pm

HUNTERS HILL THEATRE presents – OUR TOWN by THORNTON WILDER
A landmark in American drama, Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Our Town tells the
story of a small town, Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire, in order to tell us the story of
every town, the whole world over. Narrated by the “Stage Manager”, we follow the Gibbs
and Webb families, residents of Grover’s Corners, through twelve years of life changes --
from the mundane in Act I, “Daily Life,” to the romantic in Act II, “Love and Marriage,” to the
finale in Act III, “Death and Eternity.”
Through the young lovers Emily and George, their strong and loving parents, and the many
other Grover’s Corners’ locals, Wilder delivers universal truths about what it means to be
human.
“Oh, earth,” Emily Webb exclaims towards the play’s end, “you’re too wonderful for anyone
to realize you.” With humour, wit, and exceptionally powerful storytelling, Our Town offers
a unique opportunity for audience members to make precisely that realization.
Directed by Kaye Lopez who has directed the HHT production of BRIEF ENCOUNTER, this
play is a hymn to the ordinary yet rich lives of a community.

Nell Gwynn

Event Date: 15/11/2019, 08:15 pm

A bouncy, bawdy and engaging look at Restoration England
After an incredible response to the poignant Diary of Anne Frank, Castle Hill Players end their 2019 season with NELL GWYNN, a bouncy, bawdy and engaging look at Restoration England, directed by Jennifer Willison.

It is London,1660. The Puritans have been routed and King Charles II has taken the throne – and brought with him a love of all things loud, extravagant and sexy.
In Drury Lane, the heart of the theatre district, a young Nell Gwynn is peddling oranges when her sassy nature gets her a role on stage – the very first woman to ever do so! She is gutsy and very talented and soon has the attention of the new King.
But in a time when women are second-class citizens, can Nell’s charm and fearless spirit protect her from the dangers of the court?
With a cast of larger-than-life characters, plenty of ribald humour and cheeky double entendres, this is a loving tribute to the world of theatre and a woman far ahead of her time.
