The Caretaker

Event Date: 21/02/2019, 07:45 pm

HAROLD PINTER'S TWISTED TALE OF BROTHERLY LOVE TAKES TO THE STAGE AT RIVERSIDE THEATRES IN FEB
For the first time, Riverside Theatres will present a play by the legendary absurdist playwright, Harold Pinter, live on stage! Pinter’s The Caretaker is one of the most brilliant contemporary classics of our time and is a must-see in Parramatta from 21 st to 23 rd February 2019.
Following its premiere nearly 60 years ago, The Caretaker remains as relevant today as ever with issues of identity, power, family and mental illness. It will be presented by Throwing Shade Theatre Company (Metamorphosis, Vincent River) in association with theatrongroup (Anna in the Tropics, Greek Tragedy and The Importance of Being Earnest).
The Caretaker follows the story of Aston who lives in a junk filled room in personal and emotional isolation. His
brother, Mick, inhabits his own world of aspirations but is held back by having to care for his vulnerable brother.
When Aston provides shelter to a tramp he has rescued off the street, a battle of wits begins as the three try to
manipulate the situation to achieve their respective ends. As the play unfolds, so does the mystery of how the lives of these three men will forever be changed.
This new production of The Caretaker boasts stage and screen stars Alex Bryant-Smith, Nicholas Papademetriou, and Helpmann Award winner, Yalin Ozucelik.
Nicholas Papademetriou said, We’re excited to do this production because it deals with much we can relate to today. It is a compelling study of loneliness, the power of family and of how people manipulate each other. It still has the power to fascinate, shock and amuse!”

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

Event Date: 27/02/2019, 07:30 pm

Step inside a world of pure imagination
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is perhaps Roald Dahl’s best-known story and has proved to be one of the most enduring children’s books of all time. The story of Charlie Bucket, the five Golden Tickets, the Oompa-Loompas and the amazing Willy Wonka has become firmly embedded in our culture since it was first published in 1964. Conservative estimates suggest the original book has sold over 20 million copies worldwide; it is now available in 61 languages.
Roald Dahl began working on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in 1961, but its origins can be traced all the way back to Dahl’s own childhood. In his autobiography, Boy, he tells us how, while at school in England, he and his fellow Repton students were engaged as 'taste testers' for a chocolate company - something that seems to have started him thinking about chocolate factories and inventing rooms long before Mr Wonka was on the scene. But when he came to write Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the story went through several drafts until the story as we now know it was released in 1964.

The Spooky Mens Chorale

Event Date: 10/02/2019, 02:30 pm

Joyous, hilarious and deeply human choral mischief!
The Spooky Men’s Chorale is a vast, rumbling, steam powered and black clad behemoth.
Based on the twin pillars of grand foolishness and the quest for the perfect subwoofer-rattling boofchord,
the Spooky Men seek to commentate on the absurdity and grandeur of the modern male
- armed only with their voices, a sly collection of hats and facial hair, and a twinkle in the eye!

Their audiences are invited to first joyously experience a wall of mansound, then laugh stupidly, then venture into areas of great tenderness.
Not so much comedic as hilarious, not so much shimmeringly perfect as pleasingly and deeply human.

Formed in 2001 by spookmeister Stephen Taberner, the Spooky Men’s Chorale emerged from the Blue Mountains of NSW,
armed with no more than their voices, a nice line in deadpan and an ill-matched set of hats.
A judicious combination of Georgian table songs, pindrop beautiful ballads, highly inappropriate covers,
and immaculate man anthems like “Don’t stand between a man and his tool” and “We Are Not a Men’s Group”
saw the Spooks attract audiences in Australia and internationally.

Now in middle age, the Spooky Men are more masters of their territory than ever before.
For this delicious Prelude in Tea appearance, they will delicately garnish their much-loved black-catalogue
with further incursions into beauty and stupidity, somewhat like a chocolate muffin with extra bits of chocolate in it.
You must see them, really you must!

A Prelude in Tea is a Sunday afternoon concert series featuring a scrumptious afternoon tea served from 2:30
followed by a 3:30 concert performed by some of Australia’s best and most exciting small ensembles.
With the Streeton Trio, the Flinders Quartet, The Seraphim Trio and more, A Prelude in Tea concert is the perfect Sunday afternoon out!
