Eyes To The Floor

Event Date: 17/05/2019, 07:30 pm

Win a double pass to Eyes to the Floor - Manly
Following its acclaimed 2017 production of Alana Valentine’s Parramatta Girls, The Rough Hewn Theatre Troupe presents its companion piece, EYES TO THE FLOOR.

The 13-year-old northern Beaches-based theatre company has, since 2015, devoted itself primarily to the work of women theatre practitioners – writers, directors and actors of all ages.
With its almost entirely female, local cast, Eyes to The Floor is a potent realisation of that philosophy: a play that is both shocking and empowering.
Eyes to the Floor is a lament; a grieving for the bruised, abused and broken lives of young girls sent,
in the 1960s and 1970s, to the Institution for Girls, Hay.

Valentine asks her audience to bear witness to the brutality meted out to those girls aged 13-17 under state care who were expelled from the Parramatta or Cootamundra Girls Homes and sent to be disciplined in Hay.

Hay sits on the Hay Plain in western NSW and the Institution for Girls was housed in the Hay Gaol.
Concrete cells surrounded by tall concrete walls with ominous observation towers.
The girls marched everywhere, with militaristic precision – to bed, to the toilet, to their duties, to the isolation cell. And, because looking staff in the eye would lose them rations, get them humiliated or bashed… they always kept their eyes to the floor.

Valentine shines a spotlight on a dark time in NSW’s governance of wards of the state. Hay may have closed in 1974 but its former inmates still suffer post-traumatic stress, anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, depression, sleep disorders, broken marriages and suicide.
Sent to Long Bay, one former Hay inmate described it as "a breeze" compared to Hay.

Classical Fireworks In Orchestras Spectacular...

Event Date: 14/05/2019, 06:30 pm

“In Celebration” season with a musical ‘rocket’ - amid a firmament of stars! SYDNEY
Mannheim Rocket transports listeners back to the explosive birth of the modern symphonic style of Mannheim in the late 18th century.
The cutting-edge orchestral sinfonias of Stamitz and Richter were simultaneously energetic and sensuous,
and were a significant influence on the young Mozart, who was later at the epicentre of the Classical Viennese scene.
His fifth violin concerto – nicknamed the Turkish – inhabits a hazy world of love and intrigue, and the finale of Mozart’s Symphony No.40 contains the most famous ascending musical rocket of all.

To continue the bold vision of the orchestra’s founding artistic director – the late Richard Gill AO – violinist Rachael Beesley has been appointed as one of the new co-artistic directors.
Audiences will have the chance to see her direct the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra at City Recital Hall and Hills Grammar, and hear her featured as soloist in the Mozart concerto.
In conjunction with the main concerts, The Voyage of Musical Discovery invites exceptional guest musicians
to join the orchestra to reveal and explain some of the similarities between historical and contemporary musical works.
On May 14, the orchestra shares the City Recital Hall stage with Jane Rutter and her Third Culture World Music Ensemble.
Together they demonstrate the many surprising cultural and historical links between the early classical symphony and the world music of today.

Part of the popular Prelude in Tea series at the Independent Theatre, the mouth-watering afternoon in prospect also includes the theatre’s famous afternoon tea.

Eugene Lynch and Antonia Zappia have been mentored by founding Artistic Director of the company, Christine Douglas and will make their debut alongside fellow associate artist, repetiteur Su Choung.

Bare - The Musical

Event Date: 10/05/2019, 07:30 pm

Lane Cove Theatre Company
Having receiving an outpouring of support after being the object of a hate crime when it produced Holding the Man last year, Lane Cove Theatre Company follows up this May with Bare - the contemporary cult classic ‘coming of age’ pop opera set at a Catholic boarding school in the early 2000s.

The car tyres of audience and cast members were slashed last year when the company staged the famous Australian play about gay love during the heat of the Marriage Equality plebiscite. In response, the public flocked to support the play and express their solidarity.

Now, their production of the pulsating, electric contemporary LGBT pop-rock musical Bare follows a group of students at a Catholic boarding school as they grapple with issues of sexuality, identity and the future.
The Off-Broadway hit takes audiences on an emotional musical journey.
Peter and Jason have fallen in love, but they struggle with the fears of revealing their true selves to such an unforgiving world.
With a unique sung-through pop score, heart-pounding lyrics and a cast of bright young characters,
Bare rings with the sounds of youthful repression and revolt.
Bare is a provocative, fresh and utterly honest look at the dangers of baring your soul … and the consequences of continuing to hide.
10th-25th May, Fri & Sat 7.30pm, Sun 2pm

The Poor Kitchen

Event Date: 09/05/2019, 08:15 pm

The Poor Kitchen by Daniela Giorgi
Elle unexpectedly inherits an olive farm in Italy. The neighbours are colourful, the food is divine, but as she tucks into her tagliatelle, she finds herself at the table with the ghosts of a barbarous past. Set in southern Italy, THE POOR KITCHEN is a funny and deeply moving play that explores the personal, the political and the pasta!

"Daniela Giorgi’s script is both thoughtful and insightful." - SUZY GOES SEE
