Too Many Elephants In This House @ NIDA - Quick...

Event Date: 23/05/2014, 01:00 pm

See this award-winning children's book come alive on stage!
For the first time, see this wonderful book come alive on stage.

Recently honoured by the Children’s Book Council of Australia in the Early Childhood category, NIDA is delighted to present a live version of this remarkable book.

'Too Many Elephants in this House', created by two of Australia’s best-loved children’s authors, will be vividly brought to life on NIDA’s main stage, the Parade Theatre.

Specifically designed to engage young people with humour and mystery, this unique story encourages creative problem solving and playfully explores the concepts of size, space and perspective.

"In Eric's house there were too many elephants – in the living room, in the kitchen, in the bathroom, even in his bedroom! The elephants take up a lot of space, but Eric loves every one of them. So when his mum says they have to go, Eric comes up with a clever solution to a very BIG problem..."

Under the guidance and expertise of NIDA staff, this production will introduce children to the excitement of live performance while celebrating children’s writing.

Suitable for children 2 years and up.

The Laugh Stand @ FBi Social With SMART CAS...

Event Date: 22/05/2014, 08:00 pm

Another cracker of a show at FBi Social with the world's best Emcee & a musical comedy sensation!
Comedy is back at FBi Social, Kings Cross Hotel on Thursday 22 May with an absolute cracker of a show!

Your Emcee is Lindsay Webb (QLD). Lindsay is widely known as one of the best, if not THE best Emcee in the business. He has been on TV shows, like ‘Good News Week’ and ‘The Footy Show’, has been ‘the funny bloke’ on the Sea FM Morning Crew (QLD) and has toured sold out Festival shows around Australia and New Zealand. He even has a Guinness World Record for The Longest Show by An Individual - 38hrs & 6 mins (October, 2009)! "left marvelling at his instant wit" **** Herald Sun.

Your headline act is musical comedy sensation, Smart Casual!! Hand-picked by The Melbourne International Comedy Festival for their new talent showcase in 2009, these festival favourites are most loved for their infectious energy, catchy songs, amazing live shows, undeniable stage presence, and hit YouTube videos (including ‘The Hawk’, about an alleged love affair between Jennifer Hawkins and Stephen Hawking) . This marks the first year in quite a while that Smart Casual are not doing the Sydney Comedy Festival, so this will be the best way to soak up their brilliance in Sydney at this time of year. “Immediately likeable. Aussie laconic humour is alive and well,” The Age.

Lindsay and Smart Casual will be joined by another stellar round-up of rising talent, including: Doug Suiter, Kirsty Mac, Gearard McGeown, Kyle Legacy, Emma Malick, Matthew Lane and Becky Lucas (also handpicked, just this year in fact, by Melbourne Comedy Festival for the same new talent showcase)!

All this is FREE for winning WOMBATS and CHEAP for friends and keen comedy goers!

Tiny Hearts CD Launch

Event Date: 22/05/2014, 08:30 pm

Tiny Hearts CD Launch
Tiny Hearts is a collaborative ensemble founded by two exciting voices in contemporary jazz, Eamon Dilworth & Paul Derricott. Featuring compositions from each member, the music draws inspiration from personal experiences, encouraging the listener’s mind to explore imagination.

There are tales of travel, searching, thinking of the cosmos, loss and identity and strong melodic devices that are turned, twisted and developed through improvisation into powerful, emotionally charged and often high energy performances.

In March 2014, Tiny Hearts released their debut album Alluvium which was recorded following a tour across New Zealand and the east coast of Australia.

Featuring:

Eamon Dilworth - Trumpet,
Dave Jackson - Saxophone,
Steve Barry - Piano,
Tom Botting - Double Bass
Paul Derricott - Drums

Jo Elms - Debut EP Launch

Event Date: 16/05/2014, 08:30 pm

Supported by Alex Gibson
New-Zealand born singer/songwriter Jo Elms has enjoyed an impressive career between her homeland and Australia - amongst many achievements are a top ten single, prestigious awards for her original compositions, electric performances at major jazz festivals including The Norfolk Island Jazz Festival, The New Zealand International Jazz and Blues Festival and the Java Jazz Festival held in Jakarta Indonesia (alongside Chaka Khan, Jamie Cullum and Level 42).

Jo’s debut E.P The Right Time comes across as a timeless classic to the listener who will indeed appreciate the stories and range of emotions behind each song. Recorded and mixed during her time living between Sydney and London, the album showcases her acoustic style, blending her Celtic heritage with her love of jazz and soul music. The result is a collection of country, gospel and pop influenced songs, brought together by magical melodies, slick production & a rich, sweet, edgy voice.

With all her career achievements and a voice that draws comparisons from singers such as Sarah Vaughn, Vanessa Carlton & Chaka Khan, you’ll see why this woman is in great demand.

The Young Tycoons

Event Date: 16/05/2014, 08:00 pm

The Young Tycoons by CJ Johnson
Darlinghurst Theatre Company presents a wickedly subversive comedy that takes a scathing and satirical look at the ruthless world of Australia’s empire builders. The Young Tycoons by CJ Johnson will preview from 16 May and open on 20 May at the Eternity Playhouse.

A smash hit for Darlinghurst Theatre Company in 2005 and 2006, this new version, created especially for the Eternity Playhouse stage, promises to be every bit as scandalous and uproariously funny.

Michael Pigott is excited to revisit this work, having directed both sell out shows almost a decade ago. “Still as edgy and incisive as ever, this contemporary piece has been reworked to bring it right up to today. With reimagined staging and design, a new cast and a different ending, audiences can expect the unexpected.”

When Australia’s two largest media barons hand over power to their sons, fortunes are risked, secrets are exposed, unspeakable acts are performed and lives are ruined.

Kim and Trevor are two young men each handed the keys to mighty media empires. They leap into a major takeover together, but Kim goes in for ten times the level of investment. When the share price starts plummeting, the results include ridicule, outrage – and death.

Darlinghurst Theatre Company Director Glenn Terry has long-admired the work of CJ Johnson. “He is a writer who taps into our desires and creates a seductive world that we secretly aspire to. The Young Tycoons is about power and extreme wealth and Johnson lures us in and presents its darker side.”

Directed by Michael Pigott (The Dysfunckshonalz, La La Land), the cast includes Andrew Cutcliffe (Calendar Girls) as Trevor, Edmund Lembke-Hogan (All’s Well that Ends Well) as Kim, John Turnbull (Hamlet) as Liam, Lawrence Coy (The Removalists) as Ted, Terry Serio (Hollywood Ending) as Donald, Briallen Clarke (All My Sons) as Kylie, James Lugton (The Taming of the Shrew) as Dave, Paige Gardiner (Marriage Blanc) as Sally and Gabrielle Scawthorn (Poetry
