Vintage Hitchcock - A Live Radio Play
2019-06-17 19:30, 2019-06-19 19:30 | SA
Synopsis
Murder, mayhem and nostalgia collide in Vintage Hitchcock: A live radio play. A retelling of three of Alfred Hitchcock’s most famous stories — The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog (1927), Sabotage (1936), and The 39 Steps (1935)— in the style of an old-time radio broadcast. Complete with sound effects and vintage commercials, all performed live onstage, it will take you back to the 1940’s, and, as it’s narrator announces eerily at the beginning, will ‘put murder back in the home- where it belongs’. So, relax, lean back and enjoy yourself – until the coroner comes…
The Lodger; a serial killer known as ‘The Avenger’ is stalking the streets of London in 1888. Have Mr and Mrs Bunting unwittingly taken as a lodger the very same man? And what will happen to their beautiful daughter Daisy, who is the very type of girl that the Avenger chooses to target…
Sabotage; Mr Anton Verloc owns a cinema in the heart of London with his American wife, Winnie and her teenage brother, but this is just a cover for his terrorist activities. Will the police discover his secret before his most daring plan is put into action?
The 39 steps; Richard Hannay becomes embroiled in an international spy ring known only as ‘The 39 Steps’. Murder soon follows, and after a case of mistaken identity he must elude the police. Together with his unwilling accomplice, Pamela, he must clear his name and stop British secrets being sent abroad.
Performances
Wednesday 2nd to Saturday 5th October at 8.00pm Tuesday 8th to Saturday 12th October at 8.00pm Matinee each Saturday at 2.30pm
Cast
Vintage Hitchcock: A live radio play has over 60 speaking parts, with all actors required to voice multiple roles and perform sound effects live on stage. Have you ever wanted to play a dashing hero, the devious villain, the damsel in distress or the nosy neighbour? Well, this is your chance to do it all! The ability to speak dialects (particularly English variations) is a plus, but not a must. What you must be is energetic, vocally flexible and willing to work in a group. The ensemble cast will serve as voice actors and Foley artists performing multiple parts with scripts in hand, just as you would for a traditional radio broadcast. We need the classic BBC presenter voice, Cockney, American, English with a European accent and an epic scream! We even need jingle singers! Bring your best voices and your enthusiasm and show us what you can do.
Notes: Auditions will be a cold reading in groups. You will be required to read at least 2 roles (with different voices) and demonstrate the ability to insert a sound effect on cue as required in the script (necessary properties will be demonstrated and supplied). If you have any special talents (musical, sound effect, voices) please let us know as we would love to utilise existing talents.

Seven Little Australians

Written By: Ethel Turner, adapted for stage by Joan Leslie and Di Mason
Directed By: Di Mason
Assistant Director: Sonja Zodrow
‘Seven Little Australians’ is the story of The Woolcot family – Captain John Woolcot from the N.S.W. Regiment, his second young wife Esther, and his seven children and their adventures in the late 19th Century Sydney.
The family lives in their large home by the Paramatta River, lovingly named ‘MISRULE’ . Captain Woolcot tries to run his household with regimental discipline, but his rules and regulations are no match for his seven fun-loving children. The war of wills between the Captain and his troop of independent minded sons and daughters is tempered by gentle guidance of the children’s kindhearted Stepmother, Esther.
Vivacious and unruly, Judy is the ringleader and leads her six siblings into constant trouble. She is eventually sent away to boarding school by her father in an attempt to improve her behaviour. Judy is determined to return home at all costs. She finally makes it, by train and on foot but has become ill during the difficult journey home. She needs to leave Sydney to recuperate and an invitation for Esther and the children to stay at her parent’s property ‘Yarrahappini’ provides a wonderful opportunity for a country holiday for them all. Surprisingly, the Captain, left alone at ‘Misrule’, misses his family.
A terrible tragedy reveals the true strength of the family’s love.

The Show –PORRIDGE
The script and songs of Porridge are an absolute delight and include a wide array of fun yet suitably challenging acting roles for children aged between 12 and 21 years.

Synopsis:When a crime wave hits Happy Valley, there is a caseload of mysteries to be solved! Who has stolen Ma Hubbard’s recipe book? Who has kidnapped Marigold the cow? And what dirty secret is Papa Bear hiding behind his Porridge empire? It’s down to Private Detective Jack Spratt to uncover the terrifying truth in this tale of mystery, mayhem and breakfast cereal!

Join Jack, Goldie Lox and a cast of crazy characters including barmy billy goats, loopy lumberjacks, a potty police squad and a runaway cow in this brand new side-splitting musical comedy. It’s a familiar tale, told like you’ve never heard before with familiar fairytale folk brought to life as you’ve never imagined!

Porridge has all the ingredients of a delicious production -packed with spoonfuls of sparkling songs and bowlfuls of belly-laughs. This hilarious show will leave our Something on Saturday audiences wanting seconds and shouting for more!

Going Postal
2019-06-30 15:00 | SA, Australia
AUDITIONS: – Sunday 30th June at 3pm.
Bakehouse Theatre, 255 Angas Street, Adelaide.
FORMAT:
Auditions are conducted in groups, doing a “cold” read from excerpts of the script. You do NOT need to make a specific individual appointment, but you do need to show up ON TIME.
It is not a requirement, but you may find it useful to familiarise yourself with the book, or with any other works from Terry Pratchett. It will help you get a feel for the show.
If, after the group reading you would like the Director to see an individual monologue from you, please let us know when you come in to auditions. Monologues should be no longer than 1min.
PERFORMANCE DATES: Nov. 20, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29, 30.
REHEARSALS:
We are trying an exciting new way of working by auditioning early and then getting actors to learn their lines before “real” rehearsals start.
Initial rehearsals: July 14th & 21st. (reading & character discussion)
Then a break during which actors should learn their lines.
Rehearsals then continue on Tues, Thurs and Sunday from September 1st.
If you are successful in your audition a full rehearsal schedule will be given out.
PLEASE REGISTER YOUR INTEREST BY EMAIL
(so that we know how many numbers to expect)
ABOUT THE SHOW:
Moist von Lipwig is a con artist, a fraud and a man faced with a life choice: be hanged, or put Ankh-Morpork’s ailing postal service back on its feet. It is a tough decision.
With the help of a golem who has been at the bottom of a hole in the ground for over two hundred years, a pin fanatic and Junior Postman Groat, he’s got to see that the mail gets through. In taking on the evil chairman of the Grand Trunk Semaphore Company and a midnight killer, he’s also got to stay alive.
Getting a date with Adora Belle Dearheart would be nice, too.
In the mad world of the mail, can a criminal succeed where honest men have failed and died?
Perhaps there’s a shot at redemption for a man who’s prepared to push the envelope….
CREW ROLES:
If you are not interested in acting but would like to help backstage or on FOH, please attend at the audition time and have a chat to our Stage Manager, Andrew Zeuner. He would LOVE to hear from you.
ACTING ROLES AVAILABLE:
Many and varied – too many to list here, but you need to be prepared to accept any role/roles you are offered. This is all part of the fun in a Pratchett show.

Presidents' Forum

What is the Presidents’ Forum?
The Presidents’ Forum is a networking event for Presidents, Artistic Directors, and Board Members of South Australia’s amateur and community theatre companies to discuss the following topic with us:
Why does TASA exist and what can we be doing differently and better to support our Theatre Community and Members?
TASA’s core objective is to foster, stimulate and help provide facilities for the development of interest in Community and Amateur Theatre and to encourage and assist with all incidental activities.
We have been endeavouring to do this well for more than 30 years, but much has changed in recent years and we need your help to make sure we have a clear understanding of what you think TASA could, should and must be doing to support you better. This is your association and we are determined to make sure it is delivering what you want and need. We can’t do this without your input.
As such, we invite you to join us on Sunday June 30th to participate in our Presidents’ Forum.
We will provide supper & drinks so all you need to bring is yourself, some members of your committee and a willingness to challenge what and how TASA is delivering.

I Forgot to Remember to Forget

Australia/Australian Premiere
For the first time in Adelaide after a sell-out season at the True Colours Festival in Singapore 2018. An exciting collaboration co-created by performers from No Strings Attached who share their own lived experiences of acquiring a disability through illness, injury or birth.
With touching insight, I Forgot to Remember to Forget explores resilience, how we deal with and accept change, how sometimes we have to re-learn everything and how sometimes we forget it all. It is a reminder of our responsibility as friends, family and a society to remember the value and place of the individual in community, even when they themselves might not remember any more. Simply beautiful.

This is a work that has been gently and delicately brought to life and the result is a deeply touching and enchanting piece of theatre.
