Plaything

Event Date: 31/03/2016, 08:00 pm

Absurdist one-act comedy PLAYTHING by multi-awarding winning Australian comedy writer Simon Dodd.
Directed by Julie Baz Designed by David Jeffrey

Featuring Caspar Hardaker, Michael Harrs, David Jeffrey, Cherilyn Price, Cherrie Whalen-David

Two strangers mistake the stage door for the toilet door and find themselves trapped in a play. Unable to leave the stage and faced with an audience, they feel the pressure to perform, but don’t know their lines. To make matters worse, a third stranger enters and dies under mysterious circumstances. PLAYTHING is part homage to and piss-take of the Theatre of the Absurd, part existential dilemma, part philosophical rant, lots of bodily fluid jokes and a murder mystery to boot.

Playwright, Simon Dodd is a professional television comedy writer and the recipient of ten Australian Writers’ Guild Awards (AWGIES) as part of the writing team behind such successful TV series as Good News Week and The Glasshouse.

30 March – 16 April 2016 - 8pm Wed-Sat, 5pm Sun

Away

Event Date: 18/03/2016, 07:30 pm

AWAY is a nostalgic look at Australia Australians separated by diversity and drawn together by conf
One of Sydney’s premier community theatre companies opens its 2016 season with Michael Gow’s iconic and much loved Australian play, AWAY.
Lane Cove Theatre Company presents the season from 18 March to 9 April at The Performance Space, St Aidan’s in Longueville.

Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, AWAY is a nostalgic look at Australia and Australians separated by diversity and
drawn together by conflict. Audiences will be inspired by Gow’s story of three different families on Christmas vacation in 1967.

Immigrants Harry and Vic love their adopted country but are faced with their son Tom’s terminal illness.
Jim and Gwen fret over their daughter Meg’s blossoming independence and her friendship with the socially unsuitable Tom.
Roy is unable to console a grief-stricken Coral over the death of their only son.
But with the help of some Shakespearean fairies and a spectacular storm, these families are reconciled and face the future anew.
Perhaps AWAY’s greatest strength is as a tale of redemption: tragedy can be overcome; the human spirit can triumph in the darkest of times.
From despair finally emerges the bright dawn of a new day. It’s a message rarely seen in modern theatre – a play of hope.

AWAY is directed by Peter Farmer and stars Rowena McNicol, Claire Guiffre, Wills Burke,
Katherine Stewart, Dimitri Armatas, Kevin Weir, Nicola Read and Trent Gardiner.

Clarinet Mastery And The New World

Event Date: 20/03/2016, 02:30 pm

The Balmain Sinfonia opens its 2016 program with a program of mesmerising clarinet virtuosity
The Balmain Sinfonia opens its 2016 program with a program of mesmerising clarinet virtuosity and symphonic joys (with both an American and central European twist) on Sunday March 20 at 2.30pm.

Showcasing Australian international artist and SSO member Francesco Celata, the concert features American Artie Shaw’s much-adored Clarinet Concerto as well the showy Czardas by Monti, Smetana’s sweeping Moldau and Dvorak’s epic New World Symphony.

The orchestra’s founder, artistic director and conductor, Gary Stavrou said the Moldau – with its famous themes depicting nature, drama and patriotic pride - was the epitome of Romanticism.
Monti’s Czardas in the style of an alternately teasing then unhinged Hungarian dance, is probably the most famous and technically brilliant piece ever written for violin and is here performed in an arrangement for clarinet (“the ultimate party piece for a talented soloist”).

“Shaw’s tuneful Clarinet Concerto has risen above early snobbery to withstand the test of time and be universally adored by audiences the world over.
And the New World Symphony may well be the most well-known and well-loved Romantic symphony of all time,” he added.

Francesco (Frank) Celata joined the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in 1993 as Associate Principal Clarinet and has appeared as soloist on several occasions. He has also appeared as soloist with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra and the Auckland Philharmonia, and on a number of occasions between 2003 and 2009 he appeared with the London Symphony Orchestra as guest Principal Clarinet, performing on international tours and recordings.
Frank Celata has also been a past soloist with Balmain Sinfonia, performing the Mozart Clarinet Concerto to great acclaim.
Frank has also given generously of his time as wind tutor to Balmain Sinfonia.
Join Frank, Gary and the Balmain Sinfonia for this attractive – and well-priced – autumn afternoon treat in the comfort of the Macquarie Theatre.

Ku-Ring-Gai Philharmonic Orchestra's Fantastic...

Event Date: 12/03/2016, 07:30 pm

KPO Season Launch 2016
In a programme of vivid and entertaining works, the Ku-ring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra launches its 2016 season with a musical landmark, the famous Symphonie fantastique by Hector Berlioz.

This revolutionary symphony, built around a sensational dramatic narrative, was a breakthrough composition both for musical romanticism and for the young Berlioz. Using the symphony as a vehicle for the exploration of his own passions and fantasies, Berlioz found a vital new path for symphonic composition after Beethoven. And yet, the Symphonie fantastique is just as famous for its exciting orchestral effects and memorable melodies.

Richard Strauss's bold and engaging First Horn Concerto is the work of a highly talented 18 year old and shows the early signs of a composer looking beyond the constraints of his conservative training, towards the magnificent tone-poems that were to follow. Our outstanding young soloist is Alice Yang, a former student of the legendary Sydney-born horn player, Barry Tuckwell.
