Macedon’s The Mount Players Theatre Company (Vic) will stage the comedy-drama Steel Magnolias by American playwright Robert Harling from Friday August 25.

Harling wrote the script in the mid-1980s as a way of coping with the loss of his younger sister Susan, who died from complications of diabetes. He placed his story’s emphasis firmly on the love, humour and support of friends and family, through both happy times and when faced with tragedy.

Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House (alias Sutherland Entertainment Centre), hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that she cannot resist.

His obsession with his ‘angel of music’ unleashes a diabolical tale of drama, destruction and death – and a unique musical theatrical experience.

What kind of a guy thrives on taking his work home with him? Peter Maden, that’s who!

Peter, a mild-mannered Media Advertising Guru by day, has taken his day job and turned it into a fast paced, modern comedy.

Set in the offices of CHAOS FM - a “would be if they could be” top city radio station, we get to see the day-to-day workings of the advertising department and experience the behind the scenes “goings on” (or not – as the case may be).
