Don Giovanni

Event Date: 01/11/2013, 08:00 pm

Meet opera’s most brazen womaniser!
Sydney Independent Opera delves deep into the dark and complex world of the narcissistic sociopath that is Don Giovanni in their final production of 2013. Often considered Mozart’s best opera, this morality tale, drawn from the legendary, fictional character of Don Juan, examines the sexual and emotional responsibility of one of opera’s most brazen and charismatic womanisers. The Don’s arrogant air of untouchability and machismo is a contrast to explorations of consequence, moral outrage and revenge as Mozart’s timeless genius (with some great help by da Ponte) takes our flawed hero from smooth operator to hell-bound rebel!


Randall Stewart, Qestra Mulqueeny, Salina Bussien, Maia Andrews, Paul Smith, Alastair Colgrave, Ian Fisher and Joshua Salter star in Paulo Montoya‘s innovative and exciting new production.

Steven Stanke conducts the Sydney Independent Opera Orchestra.

Theatresport Cranston Cup - Heat 4
It’s Comedy! It’s History! It’s the Impro Australia's THEATRESPORTS CRANSTON CUP!



Since 1985, the funniest comedians, actors, improvisers, writers and performers, have thrown away their scripts and stepped up the to the edge of the comedy cliff… and jumped off!



These comedy lemmings have swan-dived into the unknown, like ad-lib parachutists, like laughing lunatic base jumpers, freefalling with just their wits, their best one-liners and their craziest comic characters to save them from disaster!


And it’s all for your pleasure!

For nearly 30 years audiences have come along to belly laugh at the antics of these brave teams of comics as they either succeed or fail epically!

Every year, wave after wave of teams, scared scriptless and desperate to score big with the judges, play to win their way through the Heats, Semi-finals, and then all the way to the Enmore Theatre for the Grand Final, and the chance to engrave their names on the Theatresports Holy Grail, the Cranston Cup!



Each week they battle it out for the honour of being crowned the funniest, most inventive, most spontaneous and just sheer craziest performers in Australia!


The Honour Roll of Winners includes such famous names as Andrew O’Keefe, Andrew Denton, Josh Lawson, Rebecca De Unamuno, Jay Laga’aia, Jordan Raskopoulos, Geoff Kelso, Adam Spencer, Davd Callan, Marko Mustac, Ewan Campbell, Lisa Ricketts, Murray Fahey, Jon Williams and more!


Who will win in 2013?

The Drifters 60th Anniversary Gala Luncheon...

Event Date: 23/10/2013, 11:00 am

Under the Boardwalk Australian Tour
The heart of Australian harness racing, Sydney’s Bankstown Paceway, will host a sixtieth birthday party luncheon and show for The Drifters on Wednesday, October 23rd, as part of the legendary American vocal group’s Australian concert tour.



Long before Justin Timberlake was “bringing sexy back”, before Madonna was a “material girl” and even before The Beatles had “come together”, there were The Drifters, who became an international chart phenomenon in the 1950s.


As one of the world’s biggest selling groups of all time, The Drifters created a huge catalogue of more than fifty hits – with such timeless classics as Under the Boardwalk, There Goes my Baby and This Magic Moment. With such iconic songs as Save the Last Dance, Up on the Roof and On Broadway, it’s no wonder that The Drifters are hailed as the godfathers of soul, R&B, doo wop and pop, and that they have been ranked by Rolling Stone Magazine as among the greatest artists of all time.


The Drifters sixtieth birthday party luncheon and show will be held on Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013, at the heart of Australian harness racing, Sydney’s Bankstown Paceway, 178 Eldridge Road, Bankstown.



These tickets are for the show only.



For more information or bookings, including to add lunch, please call 1300 843 564 or 1300 THE LOG

Love Field

Event Date: 23/10/2013, 08:00 pm

...a World Premiere
Only this morning, LYNDON BAINES JOHNSON, once one of the most powerful men in Washington, was a figure of ridicule in the powerless ceremonial position of Vice President of the United States. JACQUELINE KENNEDY was the most powerful woman in the world, having single-handedly turned the office of First Lady into a position of glamour and influence. Now Lyndon is the President and Jackie is splattered with her husband’s blood.


As they fly back to Washington to face a shocked, grieving nation, the widow and the usurper are forced to confront their dreams, fears and regrets – as well as each other. As the 50th anniversary of the assassination approaches, this frank, funny, heartbreaking new play from award-winning Melbourne playwright Ron Elisha (In Duty Bound, Einstein, Two, Impropriety) strips away the public facades of these two extraordinary people to explore what it is inside one human being that engenders love in another.


Michael Dean directs two of Australian theatre’s rising stars, Lizzie Schebesta (Mrs Warren’s Profession for STC and Macbeth for Bell Shakespeare) and Ben Wood (Henry IV for Bell and Empire for TRS) in this, Elisha’s newest and most intriguing creation. With design by Nick Plummer, lighting by Christopher Page, sound by James Colla, Carmen Lysiack (voice coach). Produced by Suzanne Miller for Bakehouse Theatre Company.
