Spretzzatura! Early Italian Baroque Songs...

Event Date: 10/06/2018, 02:30 pm

A Prelude in Tea Concert at the Independent Theatre
In the latest of the popular Prelude in Tea series, The Muffat Collective with guest Anna Sandstrom, soprano
present a mouth-watering Sunday afternoon concert of music by Montiverdi, Caccini, Peri & Rasi.

Featuring the sublime soprano Anna Sandstrom, this program of early Italian Baroque songs & sonatas
explores the Italian concept of Spretzzatura. And, as always in this series, the concert includes a delicious selection of cakes & refreshments with every ticket.

Translated as 'effortless mastery', Spretzzatura encompassed almost all areas of early 17th Century Italian courtly life.
The Grove Music Dictionary describes it as “the true source of grace... revealed in the effortless resolution of all difficulties."
Spretzzatura developed into such a desirable character trait and had infiltrated so many aspects of the Italian court
that by the beginning of the 17th century, the concept informed every arts discipline of the time.

This program features the music of the musical pioneers Montiverdi, Caccini, Peri and Rasi.
Anna Sandstom will sing - with Spretzzatura - popular madrigals of the time, accompanied by the Muffat Project’s strings.
This concert is a rare opportunity to enjoy a special form of music-making, led by 17th century experts,
and to “strike into the very heart of human emotion and awake the passions"!

The Muffat Collective comprises four period instrument specialists: Matthew Greco, Rafael Font-Viera (violins), Anton Baba (cello) and Anthony Abouhamad (harpsichord) who are extremely passionate about performing chamber music from the 17th and 18th century.
All top graduates from The Royale Conservatoire of The Hague and Utrecht, the four have returned to Australia after extensive experience playing with some of Europe's leading Baroque orchestras.
The Collective offers music lovers a genuine and moving experience by sharing incredibly rare
and often unperformed works by forgotten masters.

Oz Comic-Con Back in Town
Oz Comic-Con is back in Melbourne June 9-10, at the Convention & Exhibition Centre, providing Victoria’s yearly, ultimate celebration of pop-culture.
Oz Comic-Con Melbourne 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 Melbourne’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 Melbourne. We’re proud to be supporting great, local Victorian 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!”.

Assassins

Event Date: 07/06/2018, 07:00 pm

Stellar cast assembled for Sydney Opera House season of ASSASSINS
The Sydney Opera House has announced the final cast members for its upcoming production of the critically-acclaimed musical Assassins. After a sold-out season at the Hayes Theatre Co, which received widespread critical praise and multiple nominations in last year’s Sydney Theatre Awards, this darkly entertaining, revue-style musical arrives at the Sydney Opera House’s Playhouse in June.
As previously announced, reprising the role of John Wilkes Booth, earning him the 2017 Sydney Theatre Award for Best Male Actor in a Leading Role, is acclaimed actor, singer and showman David Campbell (Dream Lover). Joining him in the role of Sam Byck is Anthony Gooley, awarded ‘Best Actor in an Independent Production’ (2011 Sydney Theatre Awards). Playing the role of Giuseppe "Joe" Zangara is Luigi Lucente, most recently seen on Sydney stages in Muriel’s Wedding and leading the cast in the Australian Premiere of Dogfight at the Hayes Theatre Co. The final cast announcement is Sydney Theatre Award winner Madeleine Jones (Muriel’s Wedding, Ladies in Black) who will play the role of Emma Goldman.
Set in a fairground shooting gallery, the Tony Award-winning Assassins tells the story of nine misfit Americans who killed (or planned to kill) their President-of-the-day. The genius of America’s greatest musical-theatre composer and lyricist, Stephen Sondheim (West Side Story, Gypsy, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods) combines with John Weidman’s book, exploring the disillusionment associated with patriotic idealism. Deploying a dose of absurd humour and a century of musical pastiche, Assassins dissects the motivations of some of history’s most notorious criminals.
Continuing their roles from the critically-acclaimed Hayes Theatre Co season are Connor Crawford (The Sound of Music, City of Angels), Hannah Fredericksen (Dream Lover, Heathers), Kate Cole (Ladies in Black, Sweet Charity), Bobby Fox (Jersey Boys, Blood Brothers), Jason Winston - formerly known as Jason Kos - (Cabaret, Miracle City),
