Classical Quartets For Clarinet And Stri...

Event Date: 09/07/2016, 07:00 pm

La Seccatura - Haydn, Schubert and Hummel
Under the artistic direction of acclaimed Australian conductor Richard Gill OAM, four of Australia’s most renowned chamber musicians step off the international stage to perform Viennese classical music from the masters:
Haydn, Schubert and Hummel: Sydney 9 July, Melbourne 11 July and Noosa 17 July.

The orchestra seventeen88 Chamber Soloists
- Nicole van Bruggen clarinet, Rachael Beesley violin, Simon Oswell viola and Michael Dahlenburg cello -
bring to life Viennese Classical Chamber works by Haydn, Schubert and Hummel in a program displaying virtuosity, sensitivity and the enticing colours of period instruments.
An arrangement of Haydn String Quartets, published in the early 1800s for Clarinet, Violin, Viola and Cello by Gambaro, gathers movements from various Quartets including the famous ‘Sunrise’ Quartet to create a new work of stunning naiveté and poignancy.
Schubert’s String Trio D471, composed in 1816, shows a glimpse into the Classical world in which he grew up, strongly influenced by Haydn and Mozart. Finally, Hummel’s lively and dramatic Clarinet Quartet
continues along the path laid by Haydn but goes on to reveal a sensuous and melodically revealing character.

“Highlighted by unity, authenticity and sonorous beauty" (ABC Limelight magazine) the orchestra seventeen88 Chamber Soloists' performances are full of life, creating expressive and engaging concerts, leaving the audience "entertained with exquisite results”.

Acquaint yourself with Orchestra Seventeen88 as they embark on a rediscovery of Classical and Romantic repertoire in Historically Informed Performance style and showcase the beauty and clarity unique to instruments of the Classical era.

Audrey, a 1930’s outback girl with the world’s biggest backyard
This giveaway is for a family pass (2 adults, 2 children).

The Eaton Gorge Theatre Company and EMU Productions are proud to present this timeless Australian tale of growing up. The story is based on the adventures of a 9 year old girl Audrey Barlow who lives in the outback in 1930’s Australia. There’s a lot of change occurring in the outside world as Audrey wonders about the really important things in life such as ...whether being a swaggie is lonelier than being a girl and how many eggs can a chicken hold in their stomach at one time?

This is a remount of The Eaton Gorge Theatre Company’s play based on the award winning children’s book by Christine Harris. Audrey Of The Outback was presented at the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre to sell out crowds and was developed with support from Merrigong Theatre Company and Upper River Arts Exchange Artist Residency, dramaturgy with Richard Tulloch, design by Imogen Ross and for this season directed by Juliet Scrine. This season features 15 year old Darcy Scrine playing Audrey; Audrey’s brother Price is being played by 16 year old Edward Atkinson; Dad, Toothless & Mr Akbar are all played by Ben Verdon; and Mum by Susan Kennedy. This charming story will be enjoyed by the whole family from grandparents to littlies.

Event Date: 02/07/2016, 06:30 pm

Madcap hilarity, silly sounds and naughty bits; served up with Christmas-in-July dinner - Yum!
The Goon Show LIVE! returns to the Blue Mountains for a 4th consecutive year, serving up a sumptuous dinner and show featuring Spike Miligan's madcap hilarity, silly sounds and naughty bits.

This year’s featured episode is the ever popular ‘The International Christmas Pudding’ (series 6, ep 9). It’s a tale of danger and custard!

The programme is completed with two more Goon Show classics;

- ‘The Missing No. 10 Downing Street‘ – It was midnight on Christmas Eve 1953…Number 10 Downing Street & the Prime Minister had disappeared! AND…

- ‘China Story’ – To end the evening’s entertainment, an ancient Chinese play translated from an old Greek soup recipe found engraved on the seat of a dustman’s trousers in East Acton

​Be there… it’s ‘the best of British comedy.’​

The Goon Show LIVE! is cult comedy entertainment, with high energy and snappy one-liners that you will be quoting for days, weeks and months to come; it is the Best of British Comedy.

Step back in time to the golden days of radio, when the whole family sat around the wireless for their weekly fix of madcap hilarity, silly sounds and naughty bits.

Using the transcripts of the original BBC Radio broadcasts and digitally recreated sound effects, The Goon Show LIVE! is the perfect blend of situation comedy, radio theatre and absolute lunacy all rolled into one rib-breaking giggle-fest!

As in previous years, all of your favourite Goon Show characters will be featured, including those conniving cads Grytpype-Thynne and Moriarty, the feeble and idiotic couple Henry Crun and Minnie Bannister, everyone’s favourite school-boy Bluebottle – and of course the famous Eccles.

Chris Gudu & Afro Pamoja Back In Sydney

Event Date: 01/07/2016, 07:30 pm

The Chris Gudu performance is worth experiencing, not just once but over and over again.
After their last concert at this venues a few months ago totally sold out within days Chris Gudu & Afro Pamoja From Bulawayo, Zimbabwe bring the irresistible township jive rhythms back to Django Bar as part of their 2016 international tour, by popular demand.

The band has the musical and spiritual grooves from Chris Gudu’s homeland where he grew up not only playing musical instruments and singing with his family, but actually making the instruments, namely guitars and drums.

Chris Gudu was the co-founder of Matonto, alongside his brother Calvin Gudu, and he is the former leader, bass man and lead singer of the group Jive Kayana, which during its days sold out concerts and created big waves at festivals. His up tempo and exuberant music is what is often referred to as “Township Jive Music” and is better known in Southern Africa as Umbaqanga music which sometimes presents a touch of Afro jazz. Umbaqanga music originates from the streets and shebeens of Southern Africa.

Chris Gudu was born into a musical family where he was exposed to a musical environment from a tender age, playing the African drum, singing in church choirs directed by his mother as well as featuring in school choirs and a lot of talent shows from primary to high school. He continues to leap from strength to strength as his music gets more and more attention from media and the fans at large. There is always the unmistakable and unique magic when Chris Gudu & Afro Pamoja takes to the stage. Their unparalleled performance has the richness of that unique and powerful soothing yet exuberant, exhilarating and ‘get up and dance’ kind of rhythms. Afro Pamoja comprises some of well respected and sought after talented and well trained musicians who always leave the audience wanting more and more. If you have seen this fine band on stage before you know for sure that you are bracing yourself for another awesome treat.
