Not Strictly Ballroom

Event Date: 13/06/2015, 07:30 pm

Paul Hayman's 'Not Strictly Ballroom' - The Story of Cloudland
The late 1940’s to the 1980’s saw many social changes within the Australian landscape. None more so than the changes in Music, Dance and fashion.

“The Saturday Night Dance” was the norm and involved an evening of live music and social dancing. The venues were majestic and played host to a multitude of Iconic National and international acts.

Now a show takes you on a journey through one of the most Iconic Dancehalls of them all….

Cloudland Ballroom sat high on the hill overlooking Brisbane city and was a landmark for almost 40 years.

We all know the saying “if only the walls could talk”….

…. Well, there aren’t many buildings in Australia that would have more to tell than this venue, which, was considered by many as “The Greatest Ballroom in the Southern Hemisphere”

It’s overnight demolition in 1982 became as controversial as some of the acts who played there. Many Brisbane residents were not only stunned, but saddened and disheartened.

The show “Not Strictly Ballroom’ is the Complete History of this Iconic Building.

The stage set is a concise replica of the Band Stand of the original venue. The cast of 20, comprise of a 7 piece band identical in line up to the original house band of Cloudland, complimented by some of Australia’s best Ballroom and Rock’n’Roll Dancers and hosted by Entertainer, Producer and Director Paul Hayman.

This 2 ½ hour production is a truly unique entertainment experience. A historical tribute, not to a Band or an Artist, but to the venue which housed them! The dance showcases by the cast during the program highlight how not just the Australian Music scene has evolved over the last 40 years, but also the Dance scene.

The truly unique element to this show is that the audience doesn’t have to sit in their seats and just watch, they too can dance on the Dance floor in front of the bandstand during the show just as you would have done at the original Cloudland.

FAULT LINES

Event Date: 11/06/2015, 07:30 pm

A show combining traditional Chinese dance & culture with contemporary dance
Fault Lines depicts the human response to the devastating earthquakes in Christchurch and the Sichuan province of China. The show had its world premiere at the Melbourne Festival in October 2012 in a unique collaboration between New Zealand choreographer Sara Brodie and China’s Sichuan province- based Leshan Song & Dance Troupe.

Together they crafted an intimate, personal response to explore shared earthquake experiences by combining traditional Chinese dance and culture with contemporary dance.
Now this critically acclaimed production is touring to Sydney and Canberra from 11 to 16 June 2015.
On a quiet spring afternoon in 2008, an earthquake measuring eight on the Richter scale devastated the Sichuan province of China, killing over 69,000 people. It was a natural disaster on such a scale that defied imagination – but for millions of Chinese survivors, there was nothing for it but to pick up the pieces and carry on.

As well as dance and theatre, the performance includes elements of song. Composer Gareth Farr sat in on the creative process and composed the music as the work was put together.

“The dancers are beautifully trained in Chinese classical dance, and handle the unfamiliar contemporary dance vocabulary with skill.”

Opera In The Pub At The Roxbury

Event Date: 10/06/2015, 07:30 pm

Opera Bites returns to The Roxbury Hotel with The Elixir of Love, Donizetti's delightful comedy
Mid-week in a Sydney pub - glasses tinkling, conversation bubbling, steak sizzling . . . . SURPRISE! . . . . the divine melodies of an opera begin and a fully costumed cast appear!

As the sublime music begins, a touch of narration is added and a favourite opera comes to life.

Feel like you have front row seats as you get up close to the thrill of live performance.
Join us for a relaxed drink and delicious meal whilst enjoying some of the opera world’s favourite music – we promise even the non-opera-lover will enjoy an evening Opera Bites style!

Opera Bites returns to The Roxbury Hotel with The Elixir of Love, one of Donizetti's most delightful comic operas. Sung in English, this 90-minute version tells the story of a country bumpkin who wins the hard-to-get heart of the girl he adores, aided by a "magic potion" and a travelling quack. This charming comedy bubbles along as the "elixir" causes as many problems as it solves.

Featuring one of operas best loved arias: ‘una furtiva lagrima’ – ‘one furtive tear’, this operatic gem contains many more hits and even some audience participation – Opera Bites style!
The combination of top tunes and all the hilarity is sure to keep everyone laughing and humming all the way home.

*Note*:
GIve-away is for 1 double pass (two tickets) to Opera in the Pub at The Roxbury (Show Only). Dinner & Drinks available for purchase from 6pm. Show commences 7.30pm.
