Mr Gorski At Sydney Fringe

Event Date: 18/09/2018, 06:30 pm

Mind blowing fun and games with Mr Gorski
One of Australia’s most loved festival stars comes to Sydney Fringe in September with a twinkle in his eye,
a twist in his moustache and a slew of tricks and gags to delight audiences of all ages!

The charismatic Mr.Gørski executes his favourite variety-show skills and seemingly impossible tricks
in a chaotic and hilarious show at St Peters Town Hall from 18-29 September.
The ‘man behind the mo’ is Daniel Gorski, originally from Melbourne and now seen regularly on stages and televisions
all over Australia including La Soiree, Mad Hatter’s Tea Party and ABC Kids’ Hoopla Doopla.

Daniel was lucky enough to be brought up in a very eccentric, Polish artistic environment that
encouraged his creative choices to start performing early. It is this early family influence that has inspired such characterisation.

Mr.Gørski's festival show was first performed with great success as part of Sydney's Hoopla Festival 2014
and has since been part of Sydney Children's Festival, Viva La Gong, Woodford Folk Festival, Melbourne Fringe Festival,
Perth Fringe World, Adelaide Fringe, KISS arts Festival, Tasmania's Festivale and Perth's Joondalup Fest.
Daniel Gorski is also known for playing the character Jango from the ABC Kids show ‘Hoopla Doopla’.

The charming, high energy show winks at old-time vaudeville and an era before computers and special effects.
Find yourself entangled in this truly 3D experience with Mr Gørski. This is real entertainment!

Oz Comic-Con Brisbane

Event Date: 22/09/2018, 09:00 am

Oz Comic-Con Back in Town
Oz Comic-Con is back in Brisbane 22 - 23 September, at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, providing QLD’s yearly, ultimate celebration of pop-culture.
Oz Comic-Con is an exciting culmination of multi-genre content, from across the spectrum, with a lot of everything, for everyone – appearances by film and television stars, comic book artists and voice actors; gaming demonstrations and cosplay competitions; creative workshops and master classes; and hard-to-find, exclusive merchandise from vendors that’ll leave convention goers totally geeking out.
Kids can try their hand at comic art, at the kids’ comic artists workshops, or even get into cosplay for the Kids Cosplay Parade. Comic collectors can head over to the comic grading area, and to the main stage for guest panel discussions. Anime fans will have their knowledge tested with trivia, and die-hard cosplayers can kick off their journey to take home the international title, in Brisbane’s Championship of Cosplay heat. Gamers will be getting a work-out too, with Couch Warriors, putting their skills to the test in daily tournaments of new and classic titles. And this is only a preview of what’s on offer!
Jono Whyman, Event Manager of ReedPOP says: “This is the biggest Oz Comic-Con to hit Brisbane. We’re proud to be supporting great, local Brisbane businesses and talent at this year’s expo and in Artist Alley. It’s going to be an awesome showcase of all things pop-culture, from original and fan art, to comic books, art prints, novels, jewellery, clothing and homewares. If you’re looking to buy the next closest thing to Thor’s mighty hammer, this is where you’ll find it!”.

Opera, Wine & Dine Series -

Event Date: 14/09/2018, 07:00 pm

Fully costumed comic opera and a superb bespoke meal in a stunning hidden-Sydney venue.
Enjoy a night of hilarity with Opera Bites and Rossini's "The Barber of Seville". Following sold-out performances in 2017, Opera Bites has once again partnered with The Castlereagh Boutique Hotel to bring you an unforgettable evening of fully costumed popular opera complete with a bespoke menu and select fine wines to match. As you step through the doors of this breath-taking heritage listed dining room you’ll find yourself immersed in the world of operatic splendour.

Count Almaviva has fallen in love with Rosina – he has come to Seville in disguise as the student Lindoro to win her hand and to see if she will love him for who he is and not his rank. First, however, he must get her away from the clutches of her protector Dr Bartolo who wants to marry her himself. Almaviva enlists the help of Figaro, the barber and general factotum, who is always ready (for a price) to come up with a brilliant idea. Rosina is indeed in love with Lindoro (although she has no idea who he really is) but Dr Bartolo’s accomplices, Berta and Don Basilio try their best to thwart the Count’s plans. Figaro makes the Count disguise himself as a soldier as a way of getting into Bartolo’s house but will Rosina want ‘Lindoro’ when she finds out about his deception...?

Double pass includes entertainment, 3-course bespoke menu and matching wines.

Next Lesson

Event Date: 13/09/2018, 08:00 pm

Next Lesson by Chris Woodley
“Children who need be taught to respect traditional moral values are being taught that they have an inalienable right to be gay. All of those children are being cheated of a sound start in life – yes, cheated.” Margaret Thatcher, October 1987.

In 1988, Michael, a gay student at a South London high school, comes out to his mother. That same year, at the height of the AIDS crisis, Thatcher’s Tory government introduces Section 28 of the Local Government Act, which forbids ‘the promotion of homosexuality’ in British schools, including supporting or encouraging the view that gay relationships are ‘normal’ or equal to heterosexual ones. The legislation will not be repealed until 2003.

Spanning two decades, Chris Woodley’s semi-autobiographical play looks at the enduring impact of Section 28 on that boy, the man he becomes, and the school he attends and subsequently returns to as a teacher.

Along the way, teachers and students – male and female – debate, flirt, mourn, argue, and strive for acceptance within the school and its community, as the years pass and opinions around homosexuality change.

Australian premiere, produced by New Theatre as part of Queer Fringe @ The New

Bespoken Word

Event Date: 12/09/2018, 07:30 pm

Bespoken Word is a monthly fresh new night of wonderful live storytelling & comedy.
Bespoken Word brings together Sydney's most interesting and exciting writers, entertainers and comedians for an evening of hilarious true storytelling!

The first half of the evening, hosted by Kate Iselin, sees our special guests telling short, pre-written stories on a specific theme. The second half of the evening, hosted by John Knowles is a live episode of his successful Comedy Festival show and ABC702 Radio Afternnoon segment 'I Can Top That!'. John and three guests take the stage to tell completely true yet totally unprepared stories inspired by topic suggestions from the audience.

The stories told at Bespoken Word can be shocking, others embarrassing, insightful, sweet or just plain hilarious. It's a smorgasbord of real life adventures and raw revelations with an emphasis on vulnerability, confession and laughter. Staged at the cosy Petersham Bowling Club, known for its welcoming community and artsy offerings, Bespoken Word aims to create a friendly modern version of traditional parlour entertainment.
