It’s hard to pull yourself up by your bootstraps in this economy - Sue should know. It’s harder when you’ve got kids, even whip-smart, talented ones like Judy. Sue has big dreams for both her basement beauty shop and her daughter, who’s anxiously waiting for a letter from MIT that could change her life. Armed with tough love, combative humour and an uncompromising work ethic, Sue is struggling to balance her own livelihood and Judy’s future.

Bespoken Word

Event Date: 24/08/2017, 07:30 pm

Bespoken Word is a monthly fresh new night of wonderful live storytelling & comedy.
The idea in creating Bespoken Word is give audiences an engaging, funny and at times poignant evening of great stories well told. The show is divided into two halves - the haves and have nots. Those who have prepared - and those who have not. The first bracket features crafted and practiced stories. Guests who take the stage in the second bracket have not even been given the topic yet, let alone time to prepare.

The first half, hosted by Kate Iselin will feature invited writers and people from the public performing their best stories linked by a theme for the night such as ‘Betrayal/Betrothal’ or ‘Wrong Place Wrong Time'. Each participant has about 5 minutes of stage time to take us on a vivid storytelling journey. The audience chooses the story that most moved them and the winner receives a magnificent very inexpensive prize and a bottle of wine.

After intermission, John Knowles hosts a live episode of ‘I Can Top That!, John’s storytelling gameshow as heard on ABC 702’s Afternoons with James Valentine. Its competitive true-story-telling-one-upmanship. Three professional comedians are challenged to tell their funniest true recollections based on a random audience suggestion. As one performer finishes their story, another shouts, “I CAN TOP THAT!” and tried to do just that with their own even better story. Its like The Moth meets Family Feud. It’s like Hamish and Andy’s True Stories but experienced live onstage without interruptions, editing or a net. The audience decides which guests wins the round, and then suggests a new topic. The key to this brand of comedy is that these stories are all true. Some will be shocking, others embarrassing, insightful, sweet or just plain hilarious. Its a smorgasbord of real life adventures
and raw revelations with an emphasis on vulnerability, confession and laughter.

Modern Jesus

Event Date: 24/08/2017, 08:00 pm

Conquer the mundane on a night out at the theatre - literally.
Charlie works at a local supermarket. She is entirely dissatisfied with her life to date. In a moment of pure frustration she assaults a charity collector who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. This moment of liberation leads to Charlie losing her job, but also ignites her desire for change and rebellion. Modern Jesus is a play about the line between idealism and extremism and how easy it is for the two to blur.

23 Aug - 2 Sept 2017

The Depot Theatre, 142 Addison Rd, Marrickville

THE ARAB FILM FESTIVAL - Melbourne

Event Date: 26/08/2017, 06:30 pm

The 14th annual Arab Film Festival Australia (AFFA)
The 14th annual Arab Film Festival Australia (AFFA) returns this August in 2017 sharing the stories and cultures of the Arab world with an impressive program of six features and five short films.

AFFA will screen films from Lebanon, Egypt, Algeria, Jordan, Palestine, Iraq, Tunisia and Australia, and kicks off in Sydney (17–20 August), moving through Melbourne (25-27 August), Canberra (01–02 September) before concluding in Perth (09 September).

The 2017 Arab Film Festival program serves as an important platform for films that share unique and often unheard or untold stories about the experiences of Arab people today. This year the Festival shines a light on the lives of generations of Arab women and how they navigate and overcome modern day prejudice. AFFA also features stories that provide audiences with an in depth look at the lives of young men and how they battle with expectations of masculinity in today’s society. From documentaries to classic love stories, the program explores the politics of identity and finding one’s place in a world plagued by turmoil

“I am very excited that this year’s films have such a strong representation of women and complex stories about the lives of men as they challenge societies expectations of them” says Co-Festival Director, Fadia Abboud. “We are thrilled to have the opportunity to feature new female directors through the incredible films we have selected in this year’s Festival.”

Visit their website for the program of films. www.arabfilmfestival.com.au

NOTE - When you win a double pass to the festival we will email to ask which film you would like to see. The giveaway is for any night apart from the opening nights in each State. To win you must live in the state for which you have entered.

Romantic Winter Treat

Event Date: 20/08/2017, 03:30 pm

Sydney Schubert Society presents SCHUBERT’S WINTERREISE (D911)
Completed in the autumn of 1827, Schubert’s moving lieder cycle left the composer himself in a state of exhaustion. According to contemporary reports, Schubert had been gravely ill for a long time.
“He had experienced much melancholy…. and winter had arrived for him.”
Contemplating the unresolved fate of a wanderer who is nowhere at home and has no prospect of arrival or redemption, Schubert presents us with a beautiful musico-lyrical anatomy of melancholy.
His Winterreise is a profoundly personal statement, a timeless reflection of human fate within a rootless existence and one of the greatest examples of romantic sensibility in music.It is no exaggeration to say that “Gute Nacht”, the opening song, is emblematic of the entire cycle.
The opening phrase, ‘A stranger I came, a stranger I depart’ sets the scene for the extraordinary journey which is to follow.

Australian baritone Barry Ryan OAM has performed in concert throughout Europe, Australia and Asia.
His many awards include the Shell Aria, the New York Metropolitan Auditions, the Marten Bequest,
the Vienna State Opera Award and the Green Room Award. He has performed with the London Symphony Orchestra, the Scottish Symphony Orchestra, the Norwegian Symphony Orchestra, the Shinsei Nihon Symphony Orchestra Tokyo and all the major Symphony Orchestras in Australasia. Barry has performed under the batons of some of the world’s leading conductors, including, Riccardo Muti, Zubin Metha, Sir Charles Mackerras, Simone Young, Richard Bonynge, Carlo Felice Cillario and Richard Hickox.

Jeanell Carrigan studied at the Sydney and Queensland Conservatories and then in Europe with Nancy Salas, Leah Horwitz, Pamela Page, Alfons Kontarsky and Karl Engel and is currently Associate Professor at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
Jeanell has performed as a soloist, chamber musician and accompanist in Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland and throughout Australia, and has recorded for the Bavarian Radio Corporation and ABC.
