'CHARLEY'S AUNT', by Brandon Thomas
Directed by Kevin Shorey.
Sunday 20 October @ 7.30pm in the RONDO Theatre Foyer
No need to register, just turn up!
If you thought that 'The Importance of Being Earnest' was a hoot, then you'll also love 'Charley’s Aunt'. Mistaken identities, period costumes, imbibing, cross-dressing, slick dialogue and heaps of innuendo... enough to keep a cast and audience totally absorbed. If you can play bright crisp dialogue and be energetic characters, Kevin needs 3 young male college students, 3 young female college students, 1 older lady and 3 older gentlemen. Actual auditions will be in the middle of November, and the play will open on 21 February 2025.

NEXT AUDITIONS!
Performances will be on July 25 - 27
An experimental and rapid-paced piece, “Scenes from the Climate Era” contains 25 vignettes, presenting a mosaic of snapshots exploring how it feels to live in the ‘climate era’.
Performers play new characters, places and times in each vignette, ranging from scientists in the past, prospective parents in the present and terrorist activists in the future. Each scene explores some of the strange and unfamiliar contours of this new world we find ourselves in, and will perhaps discover in the future.
