“How can I ever pay you back if my water pot gets broken just outside the door?”

It’s different in the Sudan, not just the environment but the way of life. Young women, standing on the threshold of adulthood, have a rigid, defined future…unless they are educated…but at what cost?

Description:

Take it away or it’s going to the tip....(or somewhere that recycles)
Spotlight Theatre Company is on the move...which means disposing of a lot of collected stuff ie: things that might be ‘useless’ in the context of non-theatre life sale but ‘useful’ for other theatre companies!! Bring a trailer, bring a roomy car...take it away. FREE or maybe very small dollars depending on the item(s)
SETS: Flats, standard height 3 metres, various widths from 1.1m down to 200cm. French windows, two arch door flats (one damaged), two standard door flats (with doors), one damaged fireplace with filler flat. French legs, g-clamps. All designed to be clamped together in various combinations as suited to your production. We have found it necessary to hinge at corners but otherwise the g-clamps work quite well. We are moving away from box set style productions and would like these to go to good home(s) if possible. Sturdy and well made.
2 x single hospital style beds. White, metal frames, designed to come apart and re-assemble quickly, raked slightly so actor lying prone can be seen. Mattresses to match.
Chairs, various combinations, set of two or more, some singles, etc. etc.
Two seater sofa and matching single armchair. Not too big for smaller stages, ideal for lounge room style settings. Currently in a cream covering with red piping (which needs repair here and there) and in need of a good clean and maybe a new slip cover? These were very popular in the 70s.
Small round cafe style tables, 4 of these.
Useful tables with metal legs, melamine tops, ex-school type, make good props tables, etc. A number of these are available.
Yellow metal lockers (office style, for hanging your coat etc. with a shelf for bags)
Misc. rostra, steps, etc. etc.
COSTUMES/CLOTHES Some period and vintage stuff, some panto stuff, gents suits, ladies dresses, shirts, blouses, some cabaret style gear, a sprinkling of 80s stuff (including an amazing gold lamѐ dress). Hats, bags, shoes, etc. Also on offer a friendly Bunyip, you really have to see it to believe it.
PROPS including matching sets of bottles, older style suitcases, foam books, glassware, china, teapots (don’t ask), fake turkey (I said....don’t ask), some slightly weird and wonderful objects.
SUNDAY 9th October from 1.00 pm. 55 Essex Street, Woodville Gardens (corner of Essex & Murchison, enter from Murchison). If it’s on the grass or under the carport it must go........seriously.

WORLD EXPERT OF COMMEDIA DELL'ARTE, ANTONIO FAVA, COMES TO ADELAIDE FOR ONE SHOW ONLY!!!

Come see the internationally acclaimed, Australian premiere of PULCINELLA FURIOUS!

Pulcinella lives a life of struggle against hunger, fleas, flies, mosquitoes, rats, dirt, hot and cold. It is a vitaccia (a very bad life). One day, Pulcinella meets Donna Zezza and the two fall in love. But, seized with a terribly fury of jealousy because Zezza – he believes – betrays him, Pulcinella enlists as a volunteer in the war trying to find a solution to his problem. Is there a solution? Yes, only one: another woman! But what comes of this are only more headaches! Will Pulcinella find love and tranquillity? A comic portrayal of life as a southern Italian servant.

You will not want to miss the fun and nonsense of the Gilbert & Sullivan’s Society of SA’s production of The Mikado.

The award winning production team of Ric Trevaskis (director), Ross Curtis (musical director) and David Lampard (set and costume design) have created a fun, absurd and up tempo production of this wonderfully silly and much loved opera. Re-orchestrated by musical director Ross Curtis, this show will delight all ages with its up-tempo Broadway style approach.

Sexual Perversity in Chicago
By David Mamet

The wild sex romps of four twenty-somethings in the 1970’s when love was free, political correctness had not yet been invented, and women were struggling to assert themselves (in the bedroom according to Bernie).
