SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'Wayside Bride' at Belvoir
DESCRIPTION:This month we are in for a special late Sunday afternoon treat at Belvoir\, enabling our members who have weekday commitments to attend. \nIn a street out the back of Kings Cross is a very special place – the Wayside Chapel. It’s a haven for the poor\, the excluded\, the misfits. It’s a place of faith and a place of love. And it’s a place where people could declare their love – sometimes in the face of fierce resistance from family\, from society\, from the church hierarchy. It’s a play of quiet heroism and heartache. \nWritten by Alana Valentine and co-directed by Hannah Goodwin and Eamon Flack\, ‘Wayside Bride’ is based around stories that Belvoir asked from people who had married at the Wayside Chapel. \nCommissioned and developed by Belvoir with the assistance of Wayside Chapel\, the Noffs Foundation\, the City of Sydney and Griffin Theatre Company. \nDATE: Sunday 10 April 2022 (Preview session) \nTIME: 6.30pm \nVENUE: Upstairs Theatre\, Belvoir Street Theatre\, Gadigal Country\, 25 Belvoir Street\, Surry Hills\, NSW 2010 \nTICKETS: Preview $52\nJudith and Cherry have purchased tickets G33 and G34\nTo buy your tickets visit www.belvoir.com.au or ring the Box Office on 9699 3444 \nPRE-THEATRE SNACKS/DRINKS (Optional): Join us at the downstairs Theatre Bar for snacks and chat before the performance at 5.30pm \nRSVP TO: Judith Nguyen at nguyenjm@bigpond.net.au \nRSVP BY: 5 April 2022 \n***************************************************************************\nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2022\nTo enable you to plan your diary for 2022\, below are the dates and selected plays for Theatre Group for the remainder of 2022.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'White Pearl' - Wharf 1 Theatre (STC)
DESCRIPTION:By Anchuli Felicia King\nDirected by Priscilla Jackman \nThere’s no such thing as bad publicity… \nFrom the brilliant mind of Anchuli Felicia King\, White Pearl was a runaway smash on its 2019 Sydney premiere with co-producer Riverside’s National Theatre of Parramatta. After a hit season at Queensland Theatre in 2021\, this knockout production will return in 2022\, this time at The Wharf. \nBehind the sleek and unblemished facade of CleardayTM cosmetics — a market leader in Asia’s booming beauty industry — the scars of deep-seated prejudice are waiting to re-emerge. A team of young and ambitious women from across Asia is working to generate buzz for their new skin-whitening cream ‘White Pearl’. The problem? An ad in development has leaked early and it’s making headlines for all the wrong reasons. As views skyrocket and the ad is shared around the world\, the team races against the clock to get the situation under control\, to save their jobs and to lay the blame squarely elsewhere. \nWith razor-sharp dialogue\, nail-biting tension\, and caustic wit\, this rollercoaster of a production takes a nuanced swipe at cancel culture and toxic corporations\, exploring intra-Asian politics\, 21st century racism and the dark side of going viral. \nApprox. duration 1 hr 25 mins (no interval)\nContent Strong language\, adult themes\, sexual references and themes of racial prejudice. White Pearl dissects aspects of race and culture and contains content that may be confronting for some audience members. \n​​DATE: Wednesday 30 March 2022 \nTIME: 7.30pm \nVENUE: Wharf 1 Theatre\, Wharf 4/5\, 15 Hickson Road\, Walsh Bay\, Sydney\, NSW 2000 \nTICKETS: Adult A Reserve $70\, B Reserve $66\, Seniors cardholder $70 \nPurchase your tickets at https://www.sydneytheatre.com.au/whats-on or by phone at the Box office on (02) 9250 1777 \nCherry and I have booked our tickets for Seats K5 and K6. \nPRE-THEATRE: (Optional): Join Judith and Cherry for pre-theatre Dinner at ‘The Theatre Bar at the End of the Wharf’ at 6.00pm \nRSVP TO: Judith Nguyen at nguyenjm@bigpond.net.au\, indicating whether you would like to join us for pre-theatre dinner\, as booking a table is required \nRSVP BY: Monday 21 March 2022 \n**************************************** \nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2022 \nTo enable you to plan your diary\, below are the dates and selected plays for Theatre Group for the remainder of 2022.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'Orange Thrower' - Griffin/SBW Stables Theatre
DESCRIPTION:For this month’s Theatre Group\, we will see Kirsty Mariller’s award-winning debut play\, Orange Thrower. Directed with zest by musician\, performer and director Zindzi Okenyo\, and starring a kick-arse ensemble playing larger-than-life characters\, Orange Thrower rolls into the 2022 Season\, ripe and ready for an unforgettable premiere on the SBW Stables stage. \nCo-produced with Riverside’s National Theatre of Parramatta\, it is a fresh twist on the Australian coming-of-age story. A joyful comedy\, the play is set in the very white Perth suburb of Paradise\, where Zadie is charged with looking after the family home and her young sister while her parents are in Johannesburg visiting relatives. \nEverything changes when an unexpected visitor bursts back into Zadie’s life in the middle of the night\, breaking the silence with loud music and even louder opinions. To make matters worse\, someone’s been pelting the house with oranges. All of a sudden\, Zadie’s got a big\, sticky suburban mess on her hands. \nWinner of the Rodney Seaborn Playwrights Award \nDATE: Monday 28 February 2022 \nTIME: 7.00pm \nVENUE: Griffin Theatre Company\, 10 Nimrod Street\, Kings Cross\, NSW 2011 \nTICKETS: Tickets are $58 Full and $49 Seniors.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'The Dismissal' - Sydney Theatre Company (CANCELLED)
DESCRIPTION:A world-premiere\, rollicking new musical account of Australia’s great constitutional crisis. \nBook by Blake Erickson & Jay James-Moody\nMusic & Lyrics by Laura Murphy\nConceived and Directed by Jay James-Moody \nWorld Premiere \nIt’s time! \nCanberra\, 11 November 1975. As Gough Whitlam delivers his iconic speech decrying his dismissal as Prime Minister\, a mighty crowd of reporters throngs the steps of Parliament House. Chief amongst them is one of the 1970s most iconic larrikins\, Norman Gunston. \n​Fast forward to Sydney\, 2021 and the Gold Logie winner and Wollongong’s favourite son returns\, played by the hilarious Matthew Whittet\, to narrate a rollicking\, razor-sharp musical account of Australia’s great constitutional crisis. Fans of political satire will revel in this all singing\, all dancing\, all mud-slinging retelling of Canberra’s most controversial moment. \n​The Dismissal revives the full rogues gallery of 70s Australian politics: ambitious Whitlam\, seductive Malcolm Fraser\, duplicitous silver-fox Sir John Kerr\, and even Her Majesty QEII as you’ve never seen her. \n​The Dismissal is equal parts toe-tapping time travel and a nuanced commentary on Australia’s place in the world today. With unimpeachable wit and a cracking soundtrack\, this world- premiere reckoning for the nation’s soul is set to be a sensational night out. \nDATE: Tuesday 23 November 2021 \nTIME: 6.30pm – 9.00pm \nVENUE: Drama Theatre\, Sydney Opera House \nTICKETS: Adult A Reserve $96; Seniors Cardholder $90 + Booking Fee.

DESCRIPTION:Thrilling\, stylish\, and hyper-intelligent\, this hit Broadway comedy investigates the nature of truth in a post-truth era. \nBy David Murrell & Gordon Farrell and Jeremy Kareken\nDirected by Anne-Louise Sarks \nStarring Sigrid Thornton and Charles Wu \nPresented by arrangement with Music Theatre International (Australasia). \nFinding truth in the post-truth era \nIn her debut performance with the Sydney Theatre Company\, Australian legend Sigrid Thornton will lead this thrilling\, stylish and hyper-intelligent hit Broadway comedy that tackles the great question of our time: true or false? \nJim has finally made it – an internship at a prestigious magazine and a once-in-a-lifetime assignment: the chance to fact check a new essay by a writer he idolises. \nBut as he methodically begins his task\, holding each detail up to the light\, he discovers that separating fact from fiction is not such an easy job. Performed by Charles Wu (The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui)\, Jim’s dogged pursuit of the facts is pitted against the titanic ego of the essay’s author. Thornton plays the shrewd\, sharp-tongued editor who manoeuvres the combatants while pushing the article through to print. \nFor fans of The Newsroom and The West Wing\, The Lifespan of a Fact is a timely investigation of the old truism “never let the truth get in the way of a good story.” Directed by Anne-Louise Sarks (Avalanche)\, this high-octane production questions how\, in our age of fake news and big data\, we’ll ever get to a world that’s post-post-truth. \nApprox. duration 1hr 35mins (no interval)\nContent Infrequent strong language\, suicide themes \nDATE: Tuesday 19 October 2021 \nTIME: 6.30pm – 8.00pm \nVENUE: Drama Theatre\, Sydney Opera House \nTICKETS: Adult A Reserve $86; Seniors Cardholder $81 + Booking Fee.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'A Raisin in the Sun' (CANCELLED)
DESCRIPTION:An iconic work of American theatre\, a testament to the power of family\, and a hymn to the Black experience. \nBy Lorraine Hansberry\nDirected by Shari Sebbens (the new Resident Director) \nLorraine Hansberry wrote A Raisin in the Sun when she was just 29 years-old and the play swiftly became a mainstay of the modern theatre canon. When it premiered in 1959\, the play was the first by an African American woman to be shown on Broadway and it continues to challenge and move audiences generations later. \nLiving in Chicago during the 1950s and optimistic about rising above the injustices that have shaped their lives\, the five members of the Younger family are all looking for ways to improve their lot: some through activism\, some through fortune\, and some through simple acts of self-determination. The arrival of a change of circumstance – in the form of a life insurance cheque – gives the close-knit family a chance to consider the possibility of a better life. But the distance between dreams and reality proves further than any of them anticipated. \nThis production\, by the Sydney Theatre Company\, marks the first time ever that A Raisin in the Sun will be performed on an Australian mainstage. It stars Zahra Newman and Bert La Bonté. \nApprox. duration – 2hrs 40mins (including interval)\nContent – Infrequent strong language \nDATE: Tuesday 5 October 2021 \nTIME: 6.30pm (pre-theatre 5.30pm) \nVENUE: Wharf 1 Theatre\, Wharf 4/5\, 15 Hickson Road\, Walsh Bay\, Sydney NSW 2000 \nTICKETS: Adult A Reserve $86; Seniors Cardholder $81 + Booking Fee.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'A Chorus Line' (CANCELLED)
DESCRIPTION:“Blood\, sweat and tears don’t date\,” says director and choreographer Amy Campbell\, who will be bringing to life at Darlinghurst Theatre Company\, a thrilling reimagining of one of the most iconic dance spectacles of our time – A Chorus Line. \nThis iconic dance musical was ground-breaking when it premiered in 1975. It will be the first time that a professional Australian production of the show features entirely new choreography. Campbell has rethought the piece to reflect the dance-styles and life of the artist in the 21st Century. \nSet on the bare stage of a Broadway theatre\, A Chorus Line centres on 17 dancers who are desperately auditioning for eight chorus roles in a musical. The show unfolds through a series of vignettes\, giving us a glimpse into the personalities of the people auditioning\, revealing the life experiences that propelled them to become dancers\, along with their hopes\, fears\, insecurities and frustrations. The show famously ends with an epic kick line as they don glitzy costumes\, having previously worn rehearsal gear. \nDATE: Wednesday 15 September 2021 \nTIME: 7.30pm \nVENUE: Eternity Playhouse\, 39 Burton St\, Darlinghurst NSW 2010 \nTICKETS: A Reserve $72 – $88; B Reserve ($65 – $79) + Booking Fee.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' (CANCELLED)
DESCRIPTION:By Oscar Wilde \nAdapted and directed by Kip Williams \nDon’t miss the return season of this smash hit\, in which Sydney Theatre Company gives this classic story a Wilde twist. \nOscar Wilde’s century-old moral fable\, packed with witticisms\, is as devilishly wicked today as on its debut. \nSeeing himself in a dazzling new portrait\, an exquisite young man makes a Faustian wish for eternal youth. Dorian Gray throws himself into a life of wanton luxury\, drifting from the pampered salons of Victorian London to the darkest recesses of the capital\, and revelling in the splendour of his beauty which remains forever golden. Meanwhile\, the portrait – banished to an attic – becomes more and more grotesque. \nThis interpretation of Wilde’s only novel is adapted and directed by Artistic Director Kip Williams. Collaborating once again with Eryn Jean Norvill (Suddenly Last Summer\, Romeo and Juliet)\, Williams’ re-imagining will see Norvill performing every role in the story in an audacious cascade of theatrical transformations. The inventive use of live video that made Suddenly Last Summer and The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui so visually compelling will capture and amplify every move. \n“The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.”  Lord Henry \nContent – Adult themes\, drug use \nDATE: Friday 20 August 2021 \nTIME: 7.30pm (approx. duration 2 hours\, no interval) \nVENUE: Roslyn Packer Theatre\, 22 Hickson Road\, Walsh Bay NSW 2000 \nSEASON TICKET PRICES: Adult A Reserve $86\, Seniors cardholder $81 + Booking Fee \nCo-Convenors Judith and Cherry have purchased their tickets for Seats A20 and 21. \nTo buy your tickets visit www.sydneytheatrecompany.com \nPRE-THEATRE DINNER (Optional): There will also be the option to join Judith and Cherry for a pre-theatre dinner at Walsh Bay Kitchen\, which adjoins the theatre\, at 6.00pm. We will book the table when we know the numbers. \nRSVP TO: Judith Nguyen at nguyenjm@bigpond.net.au by 13 August 2021 \n************************************************* \nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2021 \nTo enable you to plan your diary for 2021\, below are the dates and selected plays for Theatre Group for the remainder of 2021.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - "A Room of One's Own"
DESCRIPTION:Written by Virginia Woolf \nAdapted for the Stage by Carissa Licciardello & Tom Wright \nDirected by Carissa Licciardello \nWhat started as a lecture to a roomful of students became an essay\, became a book\, became a seismic wave. Virginia Woolf’s 1929 classic description of the need for new spaces and a complete redefinition of who owns our story making is by turns wise\, amusing\, incendiary and poetic. Rippling with passion\, this is one of the finest pieces of writing in the last hundred years\, with the distinct talents of Anita Hegh walking Woolf’s tightrope of thought and feeling. \nA teacher once told me work by and about women is usually only small and domestic\, never bold or formally radical. He’d obviously never read this (or seen our production). – Carissa Licciardello \nSupported by The Group \nDATE: Wednesday 19 May 2021 \nTIME: 7.30pm \nVENUE: Upstairs Theatre\, Belvoir St Theatre\, 25 Belvoir Street\, Surry Hills NSW 2010 \nTICKETS: Adults: (Centre) $83\, (Left/Right) $78; Seniors: (Centre) $73\, (Left/Right) $68 + Booking Fee.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - "Is There Something Wrong With That Lady?" - by Debra Oswald
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Lee Lewis with Debra Oswald \nAs a lapsed playwright\, creator of the Offspring TV series\, former Junior Champion Hypochondriac\, and a floundering novelist\, what should Debra Oswald‘s next move be? And what motivates people to write or create more ‘stuff’ anyway? Shame? Fear of death? The hope of more sexual offers? \nFor now\, Debra plans to seize control of the Griffin stage: the exact location she fell in love with theatre\, aged 11\, and the place her plays Mr Bailey’s Minder and The Peach Season came to life. \nIn a funny and excruciatingly honest one-woman show\, Debra tells stories about her neurotic childhood\, clumsy romantic history\, and the anxieties and joys of the writer’s life – all in the hope that the audience can help her work out that ever-important question: what comes next? And having waited for this show to be staged since its original 2020 season… it’s kind of urgent. \nDATE: Thursday\, 22 April 2021 \nTIME: 7.00pm (6.00pm for pre-performance drinks) \nVENUE: SBW Stables (Griffin Theatre Company)\, 10 Nimrod Street\, Kings Cross\, NSW 2011 \nTICKETS: $40 \nWe have bought tickets for Seats 43 and 44. \nTo purchase your ticket go to boxoffice@griffintheatre.com.au or phone (02) 9361 3817\n10.00am – 6.00pm weekdays.

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - "Stop Girl" by Sally Sara
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Anne-Louise Sarks \nStarring Sheridan Harbridge (Prima Facie) \nAward-winning ABC foreign correspondent Sally Sara adds playwright to her many accomplishments with the new Belvoir St Theatre show Stop Girl. Drawing on her own experiences as a foreign correspondent\, it stars Sheridan Harbridge (Prima Facie) as a renowned front-line reporter used to throwing herself into the most dangerous situations worldwide. \nBut now she’s back home in Australia and has to readjust to the new normal. How has the country she knows and loves changed while she’s been away? Has she really been able to process everything she’s been through overseas? \nThis insightful look at what it takes to maintain a high-pressure career like this and then settle into a totally different rhythm is ably tackled by An Enemy of The People director Anne-Louise Sarks. \nA ratbaggy\, wise play by a writer who’s seen it all first hand\, and has learnt how to ask the pointed questions.I’m sure everyone’s familiar with Sally Sara from her work at the ABC. She’s lived more than most of us would if we had several lifetimes. And her play is a remarkable debut. It’s about our complicated world\, and it’s full of heart.\n– Eamon Flack (Artistic Director) \nDATE: Tuesday 23 March 2021 (Preview) \nTIME: 7.30pm (6.30pm for Drinks and Snacks) \nVENUE: Upstairs Theatre\, Belvoir St Theatre\, 25 Belvoir Street\, Surry Hills NSW 2010 \nTICKETS: $56.00 Preview \nCherry has purchased her Preview ticket (Judith unavailable) in the Centre Bank for $56 (Seat J-26) + Fees: Single Tickets $5.00 online; $6.00 phone; $0.00 counter \nTo buy your tickets visit www.belvoir.com.au\, or ring the box office on 9699 3444. \nPRE-PERFORMANCE (Optional): You are welcome to join Theatre Group Co-Convenor Cherry Spoor downstairs at Belvoir St Theatre from 6.30pm\, where you can buy snacks and drinks at the bar. \nRSVP TO: Cherry Spoor at bungalowbrennan@yahoo.com  by Tuesday 16 March 2021 \n                           ************************************************* \nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2021 \nTo enable you to plan your diary for 2021\, below are the dates and selected plays for Theatre Group in 2021.
