The haunting of hill house 

An unsettling thriller,  darkly playful, where shadows whisper, walls remember and nothing is as it seems…  

 

Don't miss this chilling theatrical adaptation of Shirley Jackson's “near perfect” (Stephen King) classic ghost story.

F. Andrew Leslie’s dramatization brings the story of Hill House and all its ghosts to theatrical life for the first time. In its spine-chilling story, an anthropologist conducts an unusual research project in a notorious haunted house, bringing a crisis in which the supernatural forces of the remote site reawaken.

Rapunzel - The Pantomime

A hair - raising, family friendly show!

 

Many years ago, the King and Queen of a far off Kingdom were blessed with a baby girl with magical, golden hair. They named her Rapunzel.

Their happiness was short-lived as one day the jealous, evil witch Mother Gothel kidnapped the child and locked her in a tower; selfishly squandering all her powers for herself.

With the help of local hairdresser Dame Fanny Follicle, her silly son Pascal and the dashing Prince Ryder, will Rapunzel ever escape her tower?     

Find out in this 'hair-larious' fairytale pantomime!

Annie Jr

A high - energy musical, pure family entertainment
With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone's hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. Annie is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan. Annie eventually foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, finding a new home and family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

‘It’s a hard knock life’ but will ‘the sun come out tomorrow’?

PLAY ON! 

A fast-paced comedy that takes audiences behind the scenes of a hapless theatre group

This play within in a play follows the rehearsals of a cash-strapped community theatre troupe rehearsing to perform an original murder mystery, "Murder Most Foul"

The good news is the haughty authoress has agreed to let them perform the show for no charge. The bad news is she constantly keeps adding new scenes, new characters, and changing who the killer is, as opening night approaches.

Act I is a rehearsal of the dreadful show, Act II is the near disastrous dress rehearsal, and the final act is the actual performance in which the cast and crew learn firsthand "what can go wrong, will go wrong" as they give their best efforts for the show to go on.
