This season of 'Much Ado About Nothing' has sold out. There will be no ticket sales at the door.
Perform Australia's Advanced Diploma students presents Much Ado About Nothing - one of Shakespeare's most popular comedies, first performed in 1598, and back in Canberra in 2020! Directed by James Scott, Much Ado About Nothing is the story of soldiers returning home from war victorious, to reunite with their prospective brides. The regal Don Pedro and charming Claudio hatch a plot to use gossip, hearsay and rumour to convince their confirmed bachelor friend, wise-cracking Benedick, and the witty firebrand spinster Beatrice, to fall in love with each other. But the malcontent Don Jon uses similar methods for darker purposes, slandering the innocent Hero on her wedding day and leaving her for dead. Beatrice, Benedick and their friends have to pick up the pieces – and confirm that it really was... much ado about nothing! |
MTX Concert - Let The Sun Shine In
|
Perform Australia is pleased to showcase its MTX students this end-of-term concert, Let The Sun Shine In.
Students have been working on solo and group performances during Term 1-3 and will present them on stage in perform Australia’s theatre. The audience will enjoy a variety of songs from Broadway and beyond. This event is a great opportunity for our young musical theatre students to experience a performance in a large theatre, and to practise all their musical theatre skills: standing under lights and performing to a live audience, applying what they've rehearsed in class in real time, and using shared theatrical spaces on stage and backstage thoughtfully. WHERE: Perform Australia Theatre WHEN: Saturday 19th September 2020 at 3.00pm & 5.30pm TICKETS: All tickets $10 |
