Company information

Excalibur Theatre Company was established in 1994 by Shirley & Mark Lucas as a vehicle to showcase Mark's plays and has developed into one of the premier theatre companies in South-East Queensland.

Excalibur have competed at over 100 drama festivals throughout Queensland winning over 250 awards for their work.

There are now a number of successful one-act scripts available for production by theatre companies. These range from contemporary dramas to farcical comedies to Gothic thrillers. Each of the plays have been extensively workshopped by Excalibur and have been performed and adjudicated at festivals throughout Queensland.

These plays have also been successfully performed by other groups at drama festivals in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Norfolk Island, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Details on these plays can be obtained by visiting www.excaliburtheatre.com or by contacting Mark directly at info@excaliburtheatre.com.

"Stroke" - award-winning farce
Author: Mark Lucas

Mark Lucas's picture

"Stroke", an outstanding one-act play for 3 females & 1 male, garnered 27 awards on the South-East Queensland Drama Festival circuit in 2006. This is a high-powered, rip-roaring farce that centres on two inept bank robbers (Stacey & Sandra) who find themselves holed up in a seedy motel room inhabited by Myron & his wife Adele.
