So Harriet is well supplied with fish and eggs.
Then enters Harriet’s friend Anne, on the run from her drunken New Zealand husband Richard and from then on things start to unravel, a twisted ankle leaves Gordon housebound, then sundry wives and husbands turn up unannounced so Harriet and Anne quite brilliantly, lie their way through the morass with smiles, quick wits and a disarmingly honest tone to their voices.

The Taming of the Shrew
2026-05-17 15:00 - 17:00, 2026-05-16 15:00 - 17:00, 2026-05-15 19:30 - 21:30 | University of Adelaide – Little Theatre, The Cloisters, Victoria Drive, Adelaide, South Australia, 5000, Australia
In this sharp reimagining, Paradise is a powerhouse record label and the battlefield is the charts.
Bianca is the next global pop export, polished and playlist-ready – but her outspoken sister Kate, a rock chick who won’t soften her edges, stands in the way.
Enter Petruchio: part entrepreneur, part opportunist, determined to “woo” and rebrand the label’s most “untameable” artist.
Fast, funny, and theatrical, with Shakespeare’s original language colliding against today’s music industry, this Shrew asks: is Kate being tamed, or is she playing the game better than them all? In an industry built on image, who really gets the final cut?

Spamalot
2026-05-16 19:30 - 22:30, 2026-05-16 14:00 - 17:00, 2026-05-15 19:30 - 22:30 | The Arts Theatre, 53 Angus Street, Adelaide, SA, 5000, Australia
Spamalot is a wildly funny musical based on the film “Monty Python and
the Holy Grail.” King Arthur and his coconut-clapping sidekick Patsy
embark on a quest to recruit the bravest—and quirkiest—knights for
Camelot.
Together, they face ludicrous obstacles including insulting Frenchmen,
the outrageous Knights Who Say Ni, and not-so-damsels-in-distress, led
by the diva Lady of the Lake. God commands Arthur to find the Holy Grail,
sending the group on a riotous adventure filled with clever parody, toe-
tapping musical numbers, and relentless silliness.
Breaking the fourth wall, Spamalot lovingly mocks musical theatre
conventions, inviting the audience into the chaos and ending with a
jubilant search for the Grail in the unlikeliest of places.

Family Matters
2026-05-16 19:00 - 21:00 | Marion Community Hall, 44 Newland Avenue, Marino, SA, 5049, Australia
Mornings in the Taylor household are anything but calm. Five kids, one overwhelmed mum, a runaway guinea pig, forgotten homework, missing lunchboxes… and that’s just before 9am.
But when elderly parents, long-held secrets, and shifting loyalties enter the mix, the chaos becomes more than just domestic comedy. Beneath the sharp one-liners and everyday disasters lies a heartfelt story about responsibility, growing up, letting go, and what it really means to be family.
Funny, fast-paced, and painfully relatable, Family Matters is a warm and witty look at modern family life — from teenage eye-rolls to ageing parents who suddenly need parenting of their own.
You’ll laugh. You’ll wince. You’ll definitely recognise someone.
Don’t miss this honest and hilarious new production.

Dial M for Murder
2026-05-16 14:00 - 16:30, 2026-05-15 19:30 - 22:00 | Domain Theatre, 287 Diagonal Road, Oaklands Park, SA, 5046, Australia
In Frederick Knott’s classic 1952 thriller, Dial M for Murder, a retired tennis pro plots to kill his wealthy wife, only for the “perfect crime” to unravel through a series of unexpected twists and a meticulous police investigation.
“Dial M for Murder” is a classic murder mystery, famously adapted into the iconic Alfred Hitchcock film with Grace Kelly and Ray Milland.
Review: The play is a quintessential example of a thriller, relying on suspense, a compelling villain, and the psychological interplay between characters to create tension.
Written by : Frederick Knott
