Well, what are you waiting for? Come on up!
Yes, that’s right. Andy and Terry had such a ball with their crash-landingentry into the world of theatre with The 13-Storey Treehouse, they’re
back for more, 13 storeys more, in fact. And you’re invited!
You know what 13 more storeys means. More inventions – like the 78flavour ice-cream dispensing robot and the brain bamboozling Maze of Doom
(not to mention the self-inflating underpants) and more things to go wrong – not least of which is the very real possibility that the entire show is a completeand utter disaster. Will Andy and Terry push their friend Jill, to her absolute
limits? And who is this shady Hector Houtkop, with a really bad pirate accent? And what about all those pirates?
Adapted by award-winning playwright and author Richard Tulloch(The Book of Everything, Bananas in Pyjamas) The 26-Storey Treehouseis brought to you by the same cracker team that delivered the smash-hit
stage version of The 13-Storey Treehouse.
So what are you waiting for?You’ll laugh your head off!

Ned Kelly sits in his prison cell. Tomorrow he is going to hang. A wounded beast in a cage, defiant till the end. A priest enters to give him his last rites
and it is revealed to be Dan Kelly - Ned’s younger brother believed burnt todeath at Glenrowan. Dan is desperate and needs one last thing from his
older brother and Ned stands firmly against him.
History tells us that Dan and Ned never saw eye to eye and there is also myth that Dan escaped the fire and disappeared to Queensland. This makes for a brilliantly charged premise, explored beautifully on stage in 80 gripping minutes, weaving
Kelly fact, theory and myth while exploring masculinity, brotherhood and the dangerous dynamic of mateship.
The new Australian play, Kelly was written by young Queensland Playwright Matthew Ryan and boasts a brilliant cast of three of Brisbane’s finest actors - led
by the Matilda Award winning Steven Rooke who plays Ned Kelly in a powerhouse performance with humour, heart and depth.

Sex with Strangers
by Laura Eason Thursday June 24, 8pm - Lighthouse Theatre
A love story for the 21st century.
Trapped in a rural writer’s retreat by a snowstorm, serious writer turned professor, Olivia (Tottie Goldsmith) is settling down to write her second novel, which she
hopes will be more successful than her first. In from the snow walks Ethan (Samuel Johnson), a brash, handsome, highly successful, Generation Y blog writer with
aspirations of literary legitimacy. Olivia succumbs to his obvious charm and seemingly poetic soul. But can love really bloom between an old-school book
lover and a man whose publicity-generating exaggerated tell-all memoir “Sex with Strangers” chronicles his rambunctious sex-ploits on an internet blog?
First staged by Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre in 2011, and more recently at the STC and off-Broadway, this is story telling at its best. Dark, sexy and funny Sex with Strangers delves into the lives of two people equally capable of ambition, kindness and cruelty. Sex with Strangers makes timely and insightful observations about the
foibles of first impressions and about love and relationships in the digital age.
How far will Olivia and Ethan go to get what they want?

The township of Bodgy Creek has seen better days: The mill’s closed; the Tidy Town sign has fallen into the long grass and the weir is as dry as a spinster’s gusset. The
dying town is about to claim its next victim.
Unable to field even one full side, the footy club will either have to fold or mergewith their arch rivals - the Hudson’s Flat Cougars. But prodigal son coach TroyCarrington has other ideas; to save the club, he embarks on a plan to recruit
players from the Asylum Seekers Refuge Centre.
Will the new players cope with pre-season training while fasting for Ramadan? Damian tells the Roosters’ story through a character based narrative. Along the way you’ll meet
Sayyid, the AFL obsessed Afghani, Bull Barlow, the charismatic but bigoted Club President with the story held together by his cinematically inclined grandson, Neil.
The show earned Damian his 3rd Barry Award nomination at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and has been touring throughout the country ever since. The show is
currently in development to be adapted for the big screen with the backing of Screen NSW.

Anguish, passion and desperation collide in this tragic telling of Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark who is tormented by the impossibility of his dilemma, and
who remains one of theatre’s most fascinating characters.
Dark acts result in darker consequences. And there is little that’s darkerand more complicated than the act of revenge!
A family torn apart by murder, a son burdened with the truth and the taskof avenging his father and a country on the brink of war.
Damien Ryan, returning to Bell Shakespeare following the critically acclaimed Henry V in 2014, will deliver a new production of Hamlet, infused with the passion,
contemplation and emotion that Shakespeare’s compelling poetry cries out for. Josh McConville (Griffin Theatre Company’s The Boys and Sydney Theatre Company’s Mojo) and Matilda Ridgway (Sport For Jove’s A Doll’s House) will
delve into the depths of the complexity, violence, philosophical reflection,madness and maddening seduction of Hamlet.
