STREETON TRIO’S ‘CLASSIC” SCHUBERT & BEETHOVEN SUNDAY TREATS
On Sunday 25th November at 2:30pm, join the Streeton Trio - “Australia’s most internationally successful piano trio” and winners of the 2011 Musica Viva Chamber Music Competition - for a bewitching offering of Schubert and Beethoven Piano Trios entitled simply “The Classics”.
The latest ‘Sunday afternoon treat’ in the popular Prelude in Tea series comes – as always -
with a delicious afternoon tea, all included in the ticket price at the Independent Theatre in North Sydney.

'Australia's most internationally successful piano trio,' the Streeton Trio was formed in 2008, in Geneva, Switzerland, by three young Australian musicians.
In 2010, the trio was selected to be a part of the prestigious European Chamber Music Academy, where it was in residence for three years.
Winner of the 2011 Music Viva Chamber Music Competition, the Streeton Trio has been laureate of several prestigious international competitions and in 2012, the trio was featured as Musica Viva's Rising Stars ensemble. The trio has released four CDs, to international acclaim, which are frequently featured on ABC FM and the MBS Networks.

Boy Out Of The Country - Sydney Premiere

Event Date: 24/11/2018, 07:00 pm

There's more to land than real estate. There's more to family than DNA.
A fast, funny and darkly observant look at family, urban development and the progress of life, Felix Nobis’ Boy Out of the Country will have its Sydney premiere for two performances only at the new Pioneer Theatre this November 24.

A family property is suddenly zoned as part of a regional housing estate to accommodate an ever-increasing urban sprawl. At this moment of shifting economies, and loyalties, Hunter returns from a seven-year absence. Finding his boyhood house boarded up and his mother in aged care, Hunter goes in search of answers.

And he starts with his brother Gordon.

Presented as the premiere work at the inaugural Pioneer Play Festival by theatre makers Company of Rogues, Nobis’ ‘Boy’ is a bush ballad for contemporary life, written in vernacular verse reminiscent of the poetic tradition of Banjo Patterson.

Here, old Australia meets new Australia. A country cop comes to terms with rapid social change, a backyard is less important than extra bedrooms, and technology has the potential to unearth old family secrets. For Hunter and Gordon, sibling rivalry and childhood nostalgia collide with unexpected consequences.

The debut work for Director Erica Lovell, co-directed by Goldele Rayment, this new production features a stellar cast including Brendan Miles (A Place to Call Home), Tom Harwood (Things Not to do After a Break Up), Jason Glover (Van Dieman's Land), Jeannie Gee (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof), and Amelia Robertson-Cuninghame (Anatomy of an Offence, Love Child).

“A play infused with the vitality of Aussie idiom and melodrama, that crackles with understatement and wit.” Cameron Woodhead, The Age

“Mr Nobis’s writing is a particular kind of brilliant… Nobis’s command of ‘vernacular verse’ is faultless” Stage Whispers

A story of land, family and belonging, Boy Out of the Country emerged from the Melbourne Theatre Company Affiliate Writers Scheme and was awarded the R. E. Ross Trust Script Development Award.

What Santa Does Other Days Of The Year

Event Date: 24/11/2018, 11:00 am

A Christmas show for all the family
It is the day after Christmas and Santa has received in the mail a brochure about the latest in electric sleds. While the other reindeer are off on holidays Juniper and Snowflake, who are renovating the stables due to their fear of flying, are inadvertently told by Alf the Elf that Santa has gone ahead and ordered the new electric sled.

Fearing they are facing unemployment the two Reindeer decide to take action by writing to the newspapers to tell them that Santa's visit is cancelled.

But Santa all along has had a different reason for ordering the electric sled, so, the reindeer don't go on strike and Christmas does not have to be cancelled. Santa Claus then reminds us of the real reason for Christmas.

A Baroque Christmas - Sydney

Event Date: 24/11/2018, 02:30 pm

Magnificent! Transporting! Phenomenal!” - Schwäbische Zeitung
The Australian Chamber Choir is set to thrill audiences in Sydney and Melbourne this Christmas season
with a program of Baroque ‘hits’ to bring seasonal joy to music lovers of all tastes.

Starting in Sydney 24 November in the atmospheric locale and spectacular acoustic of St Mary’s Cathedral Crypt,
the choir continues with four performances in Victoria. At St Andrew’s in Brighton on 8 December,
the audience can experience the results of an acoustic refurbishment that makes heavenly voices sound truly celestial!

In Europe across the centuries, Christmas has been a time when serious composers would compete
to write music with the maximum popular appeal for adults and children alike.
This program represents a “pick of the pops” by the Australian Chamber Choir’s director, Douglas Lawrence:
Bach (In dulci jubilo, Singet dem Herren, O Jesulein süss), Gabrieli, Praetorius, Sweelinck, Schütz and Scheidt.
Douglas Lawrence OAM, a world-class organist, established the ACC in 2007. In its young life, the Choir has already toured Europe six times, giving some hundred concerts to rapturous sell-out audiences and winning unqualified critical acclaim.
With a reputation for its “lucidly articulated” performances of Bach’s Motets, the choir has performed several times in Bach’s church, St Thomas’, Leipzig, including in the Bach Organ Festival.
In 2015, it was hailed in the Danish press under the heading “Australian Choir in the Super League”
and recognized as an honorary life member of Denmark’s oldest classical music festival, the Sorø International.

The final play in Neil Simon’s quasi-autobiographical trilogy
“Maybe I don’t have to become a writer. I’ll just set up seats in the living room.”

The final play in Neil Simon’s quasi-autobiographical trilogy (preceded by Brighton Beach Memoirs and Biloxi Blues) continues the story of young Eugene Jerome, an aspiring comedy writer with dreams of a career in radio.

It’s 1949 and Eugene and his brother-cum-writing partner are stuck in the wilds of Brooklyn, with their increasingly remote father, disillusioned mother, and unreconstructed socialist grandfather. Meanwhile, their mother’s sister, who has ‘married well’ and now lives the good live on Park Avenue – a betrayal of her working-class roots in the eyes of her father – is attempting to reconcile her and Kate’s parents.

Life in this hard-scrabble, working-class Jewish household is an incessant round of baiting and bickering. But when the boys use their family as fodder for their comedy scripts, they learn early lessons in compassion and artistic integrity.

Simon’s reverie is bittersweet and nostalgic, but never sentimental. He chart’s Eugene’s coming-of-age and the family dynamics with truth, humanity and great humour.

“Simon may be the greatest comedy writer of the 20th century” Chicago Critic

Plays 13 Nov - 15 Dec

Calendar Girls By Tim Firth

Event Date: 16/11/2018, 07:30 pm

A Hunters Hill Theatre production that'll knock your socks off!
A ‘maturing’ group of ladies from the local Women's Institute is desperately looking to raise money for leukaemia awareness.

They come up with the idea of posing for an ‘alternative’ calendar – with just a little help from strategically placed cupcakes and flower pots!

This sentimental play, based on a true story, is full of heart and, well, just a little bare-faced cheek.

***Don't miss this limited run of only 8 performances!***

Hunters Hill Theatre is proudly supporting the Australian Cancer Research Foundation and The Concord Hospital Survivorship Centre with this production of Calendar Girls.
