Learn Social Mandarin Over Speed Network...

Event Date: 27/11/2014, 07:30 pm

Unique experiential learning of Mandarin & Chinese culture
This is a structured experiential Mandarin Program where you enjoy networking with like minded people and learn:

• Social dialogues in Mandarin including asking for name, occupation, hobbies, age, nationality etc.
• The Chinese culture of networking and socialising
• Functional dialogues in Mandarin including the purchase of beverage and food

Join the revolutionary new Mandarin program 'ChineseWize' where you learn in the real world rather than a simulation environment that is the traditional classroom. In the 'Social Mandarin Program: Speed Networking' stream, you will practice all the essential social dialogues to get to know people in speed networking style - every 10 min or so you will swap partners to chat. We will have these speed networking sessions in bars, cafes, teahouses or wherever we fancy.

These real-life experiential classes are designed to accelerate your mastery of Chinese conversational skills and cultural savviness. Suitable for beginners to intermediate learners - you will learn according to your level.

The program including prior reading materials is valued at $80/person. The first hour is facilitated by an experienced Mandarin teacher. The second hour is free practice.

China Conservatory Orchestra

Event Date: 27/11/2014, 07:30 pm

Australian Concert Tour 2014
Hosted by De Rucci and presented by Ausfeng

Sydney Opera House Concert Hall
– Thursday 27 November 7.30pm

Exploring the Soul of Chinese Culture through Folk Music
After a successful tour in Australia last year, the China Conservatory Orchestra (CCO) will make their second tour to Australia performing in the Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House on Thursday 27 November. The CCO will perform with Sydney Conservatorium of Music.

Established in 1964, CCO is acclaimed to be the most devoted and professional folk music orchestra in China. The performance of the orchestra is unique in that it takes its roots from the traditional Chinese folk and opera music allowing the charm of the oriental mystery to blend into the modern folk music style.

Proudly led by the laureate conductor Maestro Kuan Naichung, the concert will feature the renowned Erhu soloist, Song Fei, the Queen of Chinese folk music. Erhu is a traditional string instrument known as the ‘Chinese violin’. It was developed during the Tang Dynasty and has been played for more than two thousand years. The concert will also highlight award-winning musicians Song Fei and percussionist Wang Yidong. Their mastery of Chinese folk music will bring the diverse and fascinating cultural heritage of China to Australian audiences.

CCO features the talents of the China Conservatory. From the Concert Hall of National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing to the Golden Hall in Vienna, CCO has travelled far and wide to transport the charm of Chinese folk music.

RUPERT

Event Date: 26/11/2014, 07:00 pm

With Academy Award Nominee James Cromwell
Rupert, David Williamson’s take on the greatest media mogul of all time will play an exclusive four week season at Sydney’s Theatre Royal from 25 November to 21 December 2014.

American film and television actor JAMES CROMWELL will play Rupert Murdoch alongside an all Australian cast who will play a myriad of over 60 roles. TV comedy icon JANE TURNER from Kath & Kim fame will play Dame Margaret Thatcher and Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, her fist time on a Sydney stage in 15 Years; DANIELLE CORMACK (well-known from hit series Wentworth and Underbelly) will play Anna Murdoch; GUY EDMONDS will play Young Rupert; SCOTT SHERIDAN portrays Lachlan Murdoch; HAI HA LE is Wendi Deng and Rebekah Brooks; BERT LaBONTE is Frank Packer and Ronald Reagan; and JOHN LEARY plays Tony Blair, James Murdoch, Kerry Packer, David Frost, Gough Whitlam and others.

Rupert is a timely, theatrically inventive, often hilarious, cabaret infused recounting of the life and times of this influential yet elusive man who has shaped our world. Charting his stellar rise to the top, Rupert tap dances (sometimes literally) his way through his first newspaper acquisitions, discoes toward his American breakthrough, shares a fiery flamenco with Margaret Thatcher, and charms some of the most colourful characters of the 20th century, including Tony Blair, Ronald Reagan and Wendi Deng.

James Oliver Cromwell is well known to Australian audiences after playing Farmer Hoggett in Babe, for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. During his career Cromwell has been nominated for an Oscar, four Emmy Awards, and four Screen Actors Guild Awards. He won the 2013 Canadian Screen Award for Best Actor for his role in Still Mine and the 2013 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie for his role in American Horror Story: Asylum.

The Grumpy Old Women - Port Macquarie

Event Date: 23/11/2014, 08:00 pm

Based on the Hit UK TV Comedy!
Back to knock some sense back into the nation, THE GRUMPY OLD WOMEN return with their brand spanking new show FIFTY SHADES OF BIEGE!

These outrageous women will be entertaining audiences in Warrnambool, Wendouree, Warragul, Latrobe, Shepperton, Sydney, Cessnock, Taree, Tamworth, Newcastle and Port Macquarie from 10 to 23 November.

This jam-packed show comes from the original authors, Jenny Éclair and Judith Holder. It includes all the most Grumpy topics... learning the art of 'Grumpy Grooming', the joy of large pants, a free nagging master class (how to get your own way without him even noticing), beards for women, which style will suit you?

Complimentary Anger Management workshop, middle-aged drinking: the rules, navigating the smorgasbord of worry, voluntary euthanasia vs. retirement, how to customise an unwanted pole dancing kit and a mercifully brief Zumba demonstration. All this and more!

Inspired by the ratings-busting BBC Two series and best-selling Grumpy old Women handbook, Grumpy Old Women Live, is a celebration of the pre-, peri- and post-menopausal female condition. Three live and rather furious females take to the stage for an orgy of middle aged mayhem, with not a thong in sight. Don't forget your bifocals.

Come and bask in an orgy of fury and big laughs in this glorious live version of the hit TV show.

Rachmaninov Symphony No.2

Event Date: 22/11/2014, 07:00 pm

Rachmaninov Symphony No.2 - Music of Hope & Redemption
Written in the early years of the twentieth century, Rachmaninov’s Symphony No. 2 is filled with emotion and brimming with gorgeous melodies. A hauntingly beautiful, unashamedly romantic work composed in a time of revolution and change.

The Adagio is a perfect blend of passion and serenity; it takes divine beauty to its upper limits. Sit back, close your eyes, and let its heavenly caress wash over you, melody after melody, in a dream that does not seem to ever end.
