Mother Clap's Molly House

Event Date: 11/02/2015, 07:30 pm

A musical play, bursting with outrageous characters, graphic sexuality and handsome men!
“Shit on those who call it sodomy / We call it fabulous!”

It’s London, 1726, and Mrs Tull is struggling to save her frock-hire business. She hits on a plan to open a molly house – a brothel where the ‘girls’ are boys in drag – and soon business is booming!

Meanwhile, in a trendy 21st century Bloomsbury loft, a gay relationship is disintegrating amidst the drugs and toys of a sex party.

Shifting deftly between time periods, acclaimed British playwright Mark Ravenhill (Shopping and Fucking) has created a subversive and astringent satire that celebrates the diversity of human sexuality and explores our emotional need to form families whilst simultaneously slamming the commodification of sex.

After presenting the Australian premiere a decade ago, New Theatre is thrilled to be reviving this riotous gay romp of a musical play, bursting with outrageous characters, bawdy songs and handsome men!

Virna Sanzone

Event Date: 31/01/2015, 08:30 pm

Experience one of Australia’s most distinguished soul artists
“Sanzone has a voice like the caramel layer in a piece of caramel slice…so smooth, warm and pliable…and you’d definitely want a second serve with another piece to take home. It’s rich and beautiful.” Lissa Christopher, SMH

Virna Sanzone, acknowledged as one of Australia’s most distinguished jazz and soul artists, is a singer whose strengths are her own defined style and tone. Deeply soulful, yet with the ability to sail effortlessly through the most intricate jazz melodies, she is renowned for her passionate delivery and remarkable improvisational approach.

Having worked consistently with many great artists both in Australia and overseas, Virna has been an integral part of projects that have seen her move across a diverse range of genres, including most recently "The Italian Project", a collaboration with pianist Paul Grabowsky which received rave reviews at the 2014 Stonnington Jazz Festival.

"a revelation...Virna Sanzone conveyed so much emotion in vocals that were powerful yet often caressing, the degree of care taken giving the impression that the sounds were being nurtured as they emerged" - Roger Mitchell ausjazz.net

"...left the musicians breathless and the audience whooping with delight" The Age
