Community Theatre

Containing more twists than a corkscrew, Corpse!  was first staged in 1984, in London’s West End. Welcomed by The Daily Mail as ‘a wild, high camp comedy thriller, a play where anything can happen ­–and most of it does’, it began its Broadway run at the Helen Hayes Theatre in 1986. Fast forward to 2013 and the Therry Dramatic Society’s November production at The Arts Theatre, Adelaide.

When Normanhurst Uniting Church Musical Society (NUCMS) presents Rodgers and Hammerstein’s classic musical Oklahoma! in October / November 2013, it will mark the end of an era with the retirement of the company’s stalwart Wardrobe coordinator.

Diana Moehead (pictured left in her element) retires after many years of incredible service. She has been involved with costume creation as far back as 1993, and has either led a small team of costumers or been the sole wardrobe provider for almost every NUCMS show since 1998.

How does one investigate a murder when there is no body?

This is the premise of Busybody, the upcoming production at Hunters Hill Theatre, opening on November 8, 2013.

Andrew Redfern describes his first gig as director for Hunters Hill Theatre as “a good ole murder mystery with a big dose of comedy”.

Whilst Andrew is no newcomer to the stage, he is usually found on stage rather than behind the scenes.

Andrew is currently juggling several hats at HHT, where he’s president as well as the Box Office Manager.

The Hills Musical Society (NSW) is presenting a varied end to its 2013 season with two simultaneous shows, RENT and Gutenberg! The Musical! at its new home at Castle Hill RSL from October 30 to November 3.

Theatre-goers will be familiar with RENT, the Tony award-winning masterpiece by Jonathon Larson, and director / set designer Jeff Fisher promises a fresh, reflective take on the show.
