Albert Herring Pocket Opera

Event Date: 21/05/2022, 02:00 pm

Pacific Opera Young Artists present an abridged Pocket-sized production of Britten's Albert Herring
Pacific Opera presents Britten’s Albert Herring for one performance only at the Independent Theatre in North Sydney. In an abridged Pocket Opera form we follow the shy Herring’s loss of innocence as he becomes the “May King” and divulges in a night of debauchery.

Come and meet the colourful characters of the small (made up) East Suffolk market town of Loxford in this comic opera that celebrates some of Britten’s wittiest musical inventions and his gift for parody and caricature. Directed by Peter Coleman-Wright AO, the performance will feature singers from the Pacific Opera Young Artist Program.

Join us before the show for an afternoon tea (to be purchased with ticket) and interview with Young Artists and international soprano Cheryl Barker AO.

Tickets can be purchased individually, and with afternoon tea.

Violet

Event Date: 14/05/2022, 07:30 pm

Lane Cove Theatre Co presents VIOLET
The multi-award-winning musical Violet follows a scarred woman as she embarks on a cross-country bus trip
to be healed by a minister and discovers the true meaning of beauty along the way.

The themes of strength, love, awareness, and growth make Violet the perfect theatre treat.
As a girl, Violet was struck by a wayward axe blade when her father was chopping wood, leaving her with a visible scar across her face.
With enough money finally saved, she's traveling across the Deep South in 1964 towards a miracle — the healing touch of a TV evangelist whom she believes will make her beautiful.
And – if she does not succeed in having her physical scar healed - Violet may be able to repair those scars that lie deeper than her skin.
Lane Cove Theatre Company presents
VIOLET by Jeanine Tesori. Book & Lyrics by Brian Crawley
Directed by Kathryn Thomas, Musical Direction by Stephen Dula
14-29 May 2022 Fridays & Saturdays 7.30pm, Sundays 2pm

TREMORS OF EARTH

Event Date: 29/04/2022, 07:00 pm

The Song Company presents the latest 'Underground' concert tour
THE SONG COMPANY continues its grand tour of European Polyphony with Antoine Brumel's 12-part "Earthquake" Mass The second in The Song Company's 2022 Underground series is the first program presented solely by the dozen SongCo Apprentices, who are recreating the incredible ‘Earthquake’ Mass of Antoine Brumel by learning it from the original choirbook notation written out for a Bavarian performance in the 1570s, led by none other than Lassus.

Singing from the manuscript has been a consistent focus of The Song Company's explorations of early vocal music in recent years and it is now the turn of a new generation of singers to learn these long-lost skills.

The Missa Et ecce terre motus stands at one end of Renaissance polyphony in terms of its 12-part harmonic landscape – which is slow-moving and highly-decorated in the individual singers’ melodic lines around the foundational plainchant.
The final pages of the manuscript are lost to the ravages of time, so in their place it seems appropriate to sing a 12-part homage to Brumel’s Mass from the Missa Tempore Paschali by Nicolas Gombert – himself believed to be a pupil of Josquin.
Reverberating in-between the movements of Brumel’s masterpiece are modern works for six to twelve voices by Alice Chance and Antony Pitts on the themes of loss and resurrection.

Antoine Brumel: Missa Et ecce terrae motus (The ‘Earthquake’ Mass) a 12

The Lies We Were Told

Event Date: 29/04/2022, 07:00 pm

ATYP and Shopfront Arts Co-op join forces once again to premiere The Lies We Were Told
"You don't stop laughing because you grow older. You grow older because you stop laughing." Maurice Chevalier-
We grow up being lied to. Often for good reasons - so we can believe in something magical, to believe we can be whoever we want to be, or to shield us from pain. This is about those moments. When a lie is revealed and the truth is learnt and in that moment something is discovered, something that will change you forever, something that cannot be unlearnt. From global conspiracies to childhood memories to the most personal moments of all. This is how we grow up. This is life!

Following their critically acclaimed partnership on 2017's Dignity of Risk, ATYP and Shopfront Arts Co-op join forces once again to premiere The Lies We Were Told. An ensemble of young people aged 8-18 will share personal stories and verbatim texts, investigating the moments when it felt like you grew up in one day, or one hour, or one minute and nothing would ever be the same again.
