WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE AUDITIONS AT THE RONDO ARE BACK!
LIFE WITHOUT ME by Daniel Keene, Directed by Lynn Cropp
Auditioning Sunday 6th and Monday 7th December, 7:15 PM at The Rondo Theatre, Green slopes St Edge Hill
Performance dates 26 February – 6 March 2021
“My life just seems to go on, but…without me in it.”
If you don’t know who you are and you don’t know where you’re headed, you might find yourself spiralling in ever-tightening circles until you come to rest in a nondescript part of town; in a crummy two-star hotel, where the service is churlish, the lift doesn’t work, the toast is burnt and the pot plants set off your allergies. But! Keep our expectations low, really low, and who knows? You might be pleasantly surprised by how everything works out.
An absurdist comedy full of whimsy and wit with liberal lashings of life’s painfully poignant moments.
CAST

shows still missing on our list? Both are below for your peruasal - CLT shows and Fringes...
Narelle is also calling for paraphanalia, such as programmes and photographs, to complete our hard copy archives

Please check the new list below and get in touch if you think you can help Narelle with this endless task.

Our Archivist, Narelle Shorey has certainly been busy going back through the old files and is trying to create a complete list of Cairns Little Theatre - The Rondo theatre's past shows including Fringe Theatre. Narelle does have a huge collection of information to sort through; old programs, photos, newspaper clippings and now digital memories and has dedicated uncountable volunteer hours to organise it all! We can't thank you enough Narelle.
Next time you visit check out our digital memories compiled by Narelle on the foyer telly. You might just spot yourself!
We are now looking for your help to fill in the gaps and share your memories with us.
Check out the two lists below and email Narelle at narelles43@gmail.com if you can help us add any missing shows...?
