Awesome news for the Street Theatre

20/08/2022

Come if you can and be inspired by a wonderful ensemble!

The moment you realise there are only two shows left of Matilda: The Musical and you haven't bought tickets yet...

There are still a few tickets left for the 2pm and 7pm shows, with tickets available at the door or through stagecenta.com

This cast and crew are doing amazing things and deserve all the audience they can get - but more importantly, you deserve to see it!

See you in the foyer!

Can't post to this page as myself using my phone, but after you've attended the AGM this week on Wednesday, I know you will all be keen to see some student theatre! Popstars: the 90s musical is on Tues-Sat @ Gungahlin College Theatre.

Come along for some light and fun entertainment with a bunch of 90's hits!

Vale Sir Ken Robinson a man that understood the importance of creativity and the arts 🎭 Thank you for making your mark!

RIP to Sir Ken Robinson, an eloquent and indefatigable defender of the role of the arts and creativity in education. His TED talks made him world-famous—his presentation called "Do schools kill creativity?" remains the most popular TED talk of all time—and he wrote widely, including major books on creativity in 2001 and 2015. Robinson was knighted in 2003 for his distinguished career in service to the arts.

He was a staunch critic of standardized tests and compliance-based classrooms, and an unapologetic champion of every kind of creative endeavor—from theater, to music, film, painting, dance, and everything in between. He died yesterday after a brief battle with cancer. His voice will be greatly missed.
