SUMMARY:Theatre Group – ‘A Broadcast Coup’
DESCRIPTION:For our first theatre outing for 2023\, we will go to the Ensemble Theatre to see the long-awaited world premiere of writer and broadcaster\, Melanie Tait’s (‘The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race’) thought-provoking\, sharp comedy\, A BROADCAST COUP. \nA major highlight of the 2023 Sydney Festival\, A BROADCAST COUP incisively delves into the abuse of power and lack of accountability from controversial public figures. \nCut-throat journalist Jez Connell is out for her next sting. It’s been a year since she brought down one of TV’s most lauded stars for behaving badly\, and now she’s got Michael King\, the top-rated darling of public radio\, in her sights. This time\, it’s personal. \nMelanie Tait says – “This play draws on my decade plus working in the media – from things I would see and hear across networks and\, to be honest\, just thought were part of working in that arena. It was only after the Me Too reckoning I began to see that some behaviour was unacceptable and could even change.” \nDirected by Janine Watson. \nDATE: Wednesday 15 February 2023 \nTIME: 7.30pm (90 minutes\, no interval) \nVENUE: The Ensemble Theatre\, 78 McDougall Street\, Kirribilli NSW 2061 \nTICKETS: Standard Adult $80\, Seniors Concession $77 \nJudith and Cherry have purchased tickets F17 and F18  \nTo buy your tickets visit https://boxoffice.ensemble.com.au/ or call (02) 8918 3460 \nPRE-THEATRE: (Optional): Join Judith and Cherry for pre-theatre Dinner at Bayly’s Bistro \nRSVP TO: Judith Nguyen at nguyenjm@bigpond.net.au indicating whether you would like to join us for dinner at 5.45pm\, as we need to book a table \n*********************************************************** \nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2023 \nTo enable you to plan your diary for 2023\, below are the dates and selected plays for Theatre Group for 2023.

SUMMARY:Monthly Activity - The Jewish Museum of Sydney
DESCRIPTION:To start our 2023 program of Monthly Activities\, we will be having a guided tour of the Jewish Museum by one of our own members who also volunteers at the Museum. \nThe Sydney Jewish Museum was established in 1992 by the generation of Holocaust survivors who came to Australia. They envisioned the Museum as a place which could hold their stories and personal objects\, memorialise those who were murdered during the Holocaust\, and within which the lessons from the past would be taught. \nThe Jewish Museum is a place that holds the voices of history\, and in which survivors still share their experiences with visitors. The Sydney Jewish Museum is an institution that gives history a voice through collecting and preserving historic objects\, commemorating and educating\, with a mission to challenge visitors’ perceptions of morality\, social justice\, democracy and human rights. \nThe Museum has welcomed multiple generations through their doors\, some as students who have returned later in life as adults. Visitors have learnt about the history of the murder of 6 million Jewish people in the Holocaust; they have kept their memories alive and taken away the important messages of tolerance and the dangers of prejudice. \nThirty years since its inception\, the Museum continues to give a voice to the victims of the Holocaust so their stories can start conversations and inspire change. \nAt the end of the tour\, for those who would like to have lunch\, I will book for us at the Rusty Rabbit. \nDATE: Thursday 19 January 2023 \nTIME: 10.30am to 12pm \nVENUE: Sydney Jewish Museum\, 148 Darlinghurst Rd\, Darlinghurst. Meet at reception at 10.25am \nCOST: $18.00. We will adjourn for lunch at the Rusty Rabbit. Please let me know if you would like to join us so that I can give them numbers. \nRSVP TO: Caren Trafford at swic.activitymonthly@gmail.com with your name and mobile phone number. \nRSVP BY: Thursday 12 January 2023 \nTRANSPORT: The Museum is minutes from Kings Cross and Oxford Street\, vibrant centres of activity for tourists and locals alike. \nGETTING THERE: \nThe Museum is located close to Sydney’s CBD\, with multiple options for public transport. \nFrom Central Station\, the 311 bus stops across the road from the Museum. Additional options include the 339 bus stopping on Flinders Street\, or the 440 bus stopping on Oxford Street\, both just a 10-minute walk to the Museum. \nFrom Kings Cross Station\, the walk to the Museum takes approximately 10 minutes. \nStreet parking is limited and ticketed. Parking is available in St Vincent’s Hospital car park.

SUMMARY:Art & Culture - Day Trip by Chartered Coach to Retford Park Bowral
DESCRIPTION:Retford Park is a place of great heritage significance. Its European history extends back to grants of land promised to Edward Riley senior by Governor Macquarie in 1821. The house\, built in 1887 by Samuel Hordern and his wife Jane\, is a grand\, rendered brick\, Italianate style residence. In 1964 James Fairfax AC bought the property and started to turn it from an agricultural property into a gentleman’s residence. James Fairfax always believed that Retford Park should be preserved for the enjoyment and benefit of future generations\, particularly those of the local district. On 19th April 2016 and in fulfilment of his ambition\, Mr Fairfax gifted his historic Retford Park home to the National Trust of Australia (NSW). \nAs our coach ventures up the driveway\, this grand Victorian Italianate homestead will appear from a towering arboretum of a magnificent collection of evergreen and deciduous trees.
