"Duets"

Peter Quilter

Tina Barker and Peter Kirkwood

Harbour Theatre's First Production for 2011 is the comedy:

"Duets" by Peter Quilter
Directed by Tina Barker and Peter Kirkwood

Renowned British playwright Peter Quilter (Glorious!, End of the Rainbow), with more than a nod to Neil Simon, mixes humour and pathos in “DUETS”, Harbour Theatre’s first production for 2011. Directed by Tina Barker and Peter Kirkwood, “DUETS” brings together four sets of characters, four crucial moments in a gloriously funny examination of love, relationships and why the grass is never greener.

In Quilter’s play four very different and feisty mature age ‘couples’ appear in situations that could go any which way. Jonathon (Trevor Dhu) and Wendy (Elizabeth Jansen) are two singles on a blind date, feeling their way very gingerly. Janet (Paula Sayers) reveals her feelings for her boss, Barrie (Andy Markland), whilst waiting for party guests to arrive. Shelley (Sherrilee Walsh) and Bobby (Rory Innes) go on holiday and arrive in their hotel room in Spain. Rather odd, considering that they only recently been granted a divorce! Angela (Ann Speicher) is having last minute tremors as she is about to take wedding vows for the third time, and is having a heart to heart with her brother, Toby (David McGarr).

How do I ...

Featured event
LEGentertainment (Australia) auditions for
By Jeeves!

Sir Andrew Lloyd-Webber, and Alan Ayckbourn

Scott-Leonard Landers

By George! By Jove! By Jeeves!

From the classic P.G. Wodehouse stories of the amiably dense Bertie Wooster and his estimable manservant Jeeves,
two of the theater's most celebrated talents have fashioned a jolly chamber
musical chock full of hilarity and invention. Bertie is looking forward to
enlivening a charity benefit at a church hall when his beloved banjo
mysteriously goes missing. Assisted by the unflappable Jeeves, Bertie instead
entertains the audience with an improvised account of how he and two chums -
with, as one song puts it, "a collective I.Q. of around 42" - all got their
names and identities confused in the course of one riotously raucous weekend.
This tale of escalating chaos and labyrinthine high jinx unfolds to the
accompaniment of one of Andrew Lloyd-Webber's most vivacious and sprightly
scores. BY JEEVES cleverly intertwines the twin English passions for amateur
theatrics and bumbling silliness, taking us back to a time when flirty girls
pursued men, not careers, and where good breeding took precedence over
brainpower.
