Confucius

Event Date: 18/11/2014, 07:30 pm

National Chinese Opera & Dance Company
The National Chinese Opera and Dance Company celebrate the wisdom and life journey of Confucius in this grand dance drama CONFUCIUS that will premiere on Tuesday 18 November at Sydney’s State Theatre.

A staple in Chinese tradition and belief, Confucius comes to life in the form of 60 dancers who tell the story of the iconic sage who so drastically changed the moral and political landscape of China.
In a discordant world with a faltering king, Confucius fights to bring harmony and wisdom to the court and the people of China.

Since its debut nearly two years ago, this dramatic dance drama has been performed over 100 times and has received a warm audience welcome.
This year marks the 10th Anniversary of The Confucius Institute that operates in centres across the world, including Sydney.
National China Opera and Dance Company perform all over the world and visited Australia with many other shows including Legend of the Four Seasons and Mulan.

The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe

Event Date: 15/11/2014, 07:30 pm

Now a heart-warming musical!
Get ready to enjoy the Sydney stage premiere of the timeless children's classic
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe – now a heart-warming musical!

Presented by Chatswood Musical Society – with a huge cast bursting with young talent -
the show plays from 14-22 November at the Zenith Theatre, Chatswood.

C.S. Lewis’ thrilling tale - which generations have enjoyed as a book and more recently as an
award-winning motion picture - comes to life on stage in Irita Kutchmy’s beautiful musical.

Can the mighty Aslan rescue two sons of Adam and two daughters of Eve from the fearsome perils
on the other side of the wardrobe? Come and join Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy
as they are thrown into the middle of a world they don't know, didn't expect and can't leave
- at least, not if the White Witch has her say!

Already universally loved and thoroughly enchanting in the original, this all-new production
adds the further magic of gorgeous music… and realised by a brilliant cast and crew,
liberally sprinkled with young local talent – some as young as 8!

I SPIED Starring David Callan

Event Date: 14/11/2014, 07:30 pm

Australia’s least reputable spy – is back… and he’s not happy!
David Callan – Australia’s least reputable spy – is back… and he’s not happy!

With ASIO’s powers being expanded like never before and the threat of terrorism on the very streets we walk down, we all want to know just what the hell is going on…
And only one man has the answers: David Callan

Agent “Frosty” Callan is the only man in the world to leave the spying game for the comedy game –
and while his answers may not always be the right ones, they are bloody funny.

With all-new tales of daring-do and daring-don't, our man in Redfern's new Sydney show from 14-24 Nov
I SPIED will lay bare the workings of the seedy underbelly of international espionage and reveal that,
while you may think you need to know, you probably don’t want to...

If there is one show that will make George Brandis’ head explode, this is the one.

“Polished, political, personal and very, very funny.” - Melbourne Herald-Sun

The Grumpy Old Women - Sydney

Event Date: 17/11/2014, 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.

The Laugh Stand: Cup Comedy Gala

Event Date: 04/11/2014, 08:00 pm

Kick off new weekly comedy with our Cup Comedy Gala after the big race!
We’re off and racing…to another comedy extravaganza at Harold Park!

On Tuesday 4th November, you can put a bet on at the race that stops the nation, and then get your laugh on at the comedy night that stops you wondering what to do the night of the Melbourne Cup.

It’s a fascinator-worthy Cup Comedy Gala with the best comedians in the business and some top rising stars.

Your Headliner for the evening is comedy veteran Darren Sanders, one of the most established and hard working pro comics, Emcees and presenters on the scene. Darren has done it all; been a radio star; shaped community television; owned an iconic comedy club; played cruise ships and clubs all over the world; had the very last line in a hit film (‘Any Questions For Ben?’) and currently is in the third season of his own tonight show ‘The Darren Sanders Show’ about to start on GO.

Your Emcee, is Aussie mirth-master Jeremy Keast - comic, Emcee, writer, singer, songwriter, guitar player, beer drinker and top bloke. His TV and DVD credits include ‘I Rock’ and ‘Underground Comedy’. Jeremy likes asking the big questions, like: Is ‘Wuthering Heights’ the worst song ever written? And: If somebody falls over in the forest, why didn’t he get to laugh at it? His comedy comes from the heart and exits his body via his mouth via breath and vocal chords.

Darren and Jeremy are joined by one of Australia’s funniest grumpy-pants, Amanda Gray, and rising stars: Neel Kolhatkar (YouTube Sensation), Dave Bloustein (Writer; ‘Good News Week’, ‘Back Seat Drivers’), Seamus McAlary, Justin Anderson and Emma Zammit!

PLUS!! 2 for 1 meals all night!!

So race on down to Harold Park and take a sure-fire punt on entertainment!
