John Waters - Radio Luxembourg

Friday 21 February 8:00pm                                                                   

Iconic star of stage and screen John Waters celebrates the songs of the British Pop Invasion that changed modern music forever. The newest show from John Waters, featuring Stewart D’Arrietta and the Chartbusters presents an era of music that remains in the cellular memory of fans over generations.

From the evocative strains of Where Do You Go to My Lovely, the memory-dredging Waterloo Sunset and To Love Somebody, to the infectious grooves of Itchycoo Park and the anthemic My Generation, Waters and his band reprise and reinvent the classic hits.

When commercial radio licences were not available in the 1960s UK, pop and rock music was broadcast from Luxembourg, a clever move by the British record industry to circumnavigate the laws of the day. With his six-piece band and singers in brilliant voice, Waters recounts this loophole, anecdotes and moving memories of the era, taking the audience through the time continuum to songs that resound over decades.

The Beatles exploded onto the scene followed by so many more, and the British Invasion truly began, including The Moody Blues, The Kinks, The Who, and scores of others. Their legendary songs live on stage as Radio Luxembourg are a stirring and enjoyable experience. It’s impossible to keep still!

The Simon and Garfunkel Story

Saturday 8 March 8:00pm                                                                   

Music Legends: The Simon and Garfunkel Story

Simon and Garfunkel are the most well-known and beloved folk/rock duo of all time. The combination of Simon’s poetic lyrics and stunning melodies with Garfunkel’s soaring tenor, and their perfectly blended, intricate harmonies, provided the perfect platform for some of the most memorable songs of all time. And yet, while their music was transcendent, their relationship was fractured and complicated. Like Lennon and McCartney, their musically complementary differences caused impossible friction, and they parted ways in the early 70’s. Love of their music, however, never abated. Despite successful solo careers, their reunion concerts and tours together have proven iconic, drawing millions of listeners from across generations.

Music Legends: The Simon and Garfunkel Story celebrates the entire career of Simon & Garfunkel, their years together, their time apart, and their many reunions. From the team that brought you The Billy Joel Story, The Troubadours and The Paul McCartney Story, comes a thrilling 2-Act Celebration of some of the best songs ever written. Performed live by the Music Legends band, this promises to be an incredibly joyful show, not to be missed!

Oh Carole

Friday 14 March 11:00am                                                                   

They were two of the biggest hit-makers of the 60s and 70s - and they dated in high school! Yes, Neil Sedaka hired a tux, borrowed his dad’s car and drove Carole King to the prom!

They never wrote a song together but continued to support and inspire each other as they worked side by side in New York’s legendary hit factory, The Brill Building, churning out hit after hit! (Neil’s million seller ‘Oh Carol’ was inspired by their years of puppy love).

Their hits include ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow’, ‘Calendar Girl’, ‘I’m Into Something Good’, ‘Is This the Way to Amarillo?, ‘Natural Woman’, ‘Stupid Cupid’, ‘The Locomotion’, ‘Breaking Up Is Hard to Do’, ‘Little Devil’, ‘It’s Too Late’, ‘Solitaire’, ‘Love Will Keep Us Together’, ‘Crying in The Rain’, ‘Go Away Little Girl’, ‘Laughter in The Rain’, ‘I Feel the Earth Move’, ‘You’ve Got A Friend’, and many more!

Oh Carole! celebrates young love, a lifelong friendship and songs that go ‘Doo, Dooby Doo, Wah Wah’. It’s a toe-tapping tribute to the most joyful era of pop music and two of the greatest songwriters of all time!

Josephine Wants to Dance

Thursday 1 May 10:30am & 12:30pm                                                                   

She's bold. She's bouncy. She's back!

Josephine Wants To Dance is a hilarious musical about the importance of believing in yourself and realising your dreams and... a dancing kangaroo! Based on the picture book by Jackie French and Bruce Whatley, this delightful musical is a must-see!

Josephine is a kangaroo who loves to dance. Her little brother, Joey, tells her kangaroos don't dance, they hop - but Josephine continues to point her toes and leap through the air. When a ballet troupe comes to the sleepy town of Shaggy Gully, Josephine desperately wants to dance like the ballerinas in pink tutus and silk ballet shoes.

On the day of the first performance, the Ballet Company is in trouble. The prima ballerina twists her ankle and the understudy has a splinter in her toe. Who can dance the lead role? Josephine's talents are called upon to help save the day. Can she do it, and more importantly, does it matter that she's a kangaroo?

Jamie and Ari like each other. Karin and Tom do too. They might be at two separate parties, but their stories are identical. Until they aren't.

Part documentary, part confession, part open conversation, Yes Yes Yes is a theatre show created specifically for young adults exploring the knotty and necessary topics of healthy relationships, desire and consent.

Featuring in-depth interviews with teenagers, Yes Yes Yes is empathic, empowering and engaging for young adult audiences. Humorous, witty and moving, it sparks conversation where conversation can be difficult!

"Funny, thoughtful and entirely relatable….I can't recommend this highly enough; it should be a must for teens and their caregivers.” - NZ Herald

International research tells us the most effective way to support young people to have happy, healthy relationships is to talk about the good stuff - desire, attraction and most importantly consent, and what it looks like. Young people actually already have the skills, but they haven't always been taught to use them in sexual or romantic contexts.” - Karin McCracken, co-creator & performer of Yes Yes Yes

The Roy Orbison Story

Sunday 11 May 2:00pm                                                                   

Experience the wonder of Roy Orbison in this brilliant theatrical portrayal of the man, his music, his voice, & his life.

You will find yourself believing you are in his presence, transported back in time, reliving the emotion of each of his songs & the stories of his life.

Mark Shelley is simply brilliant in his characterisation of Roy. He not only has the vocal range & tone to honour his songs, but he also has the sensitivity & artistic ability to ‘be’ Roy.

Without a doubt, this is the definitive portrayal of Roy Orbison - the man, his music & his life.

'Only the Lonely', 'Running Scared', 'Sweet Dream Baby', 'Candy Man', 'Blue Bayou', 'In Dreams', 'Anything You Want', 'Crying', 'Workin for the Man', 'Penny Arcade', 'Pretty Woman', and many more.

The ‘Big O’ stood head & shoulders above the rest, his vocals were peerless, his range extraordinary. His songs are unique, impassioned & personal. Orbison, the man, was enigmatic, driven, shy, funny, and quietly charismatic.

From his initial success in the 1960s to the resurgence of his career in the '80s, Roy Orbison’s voice remained remarkable, communicating an emotional intensity not experienced in popular music before or since. His songs conveyed vulnerability, love, loss & fun. His performance was unique, simple & powerful.

Orbison’s life was littered with personal tragedy, & career highs & lows. His wonderful resurgence in popularity in the late '80s through his legendary ‘Black & White Night’ Concert, his solo album ‘Mystery Girl’, & the formation of the Supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys’ was a fitting final chapter for such a creative genius.

John Waters - Radio Luxembourg

Friday 21 February 8:00pm                                                                   

Iconic star of stage and screen John Waters celebrates the songs of the British Pop Invasion that changed modern music forever. The newest show from John Waters, featuring Stewart D’Arrietta and the Chartbusters presents an era of music that remains in the cellular memory of fans over generations.

From the evocative strains of Where Do You Go to My Lovely, the memory-dredging Waterloo Sunset and To Love Somebody, to the infectious grooves of Itchycoo Park and the anthemic My Generation, Waters and his band reprise and reinvent the classic hits.

When commercial radio licences were not available in the 1960s UK, pop and rock music was broadcast from Luxembourg, a clever move by the British record industry to circumnavigate the laws of the day. With his six-piece band and singers in brilliant voice, Waters recounts this loophole, anecdotes and moving memories of the era, taking the audience through the time continuum to songs that resound over decades.

The Beatles exploded onto the scene followed by so many more, and the British Invasion truly began, including The Moody Blues, The Kinks, The Who, and scores of others. Their legendary songs live on stage as Radio Luxembourg are a stirring and enjoyable experience. It’s impossible to keep still!

The Simon and Garfunkel Story

Saturday 8 March 8:00pm                                                                   

Music Legends: The Simon and Garfunkel Story

Simon and Garfunkel are the most well-known and beloved folk/rock duo of all time. The combination of Simon’s poetic lyrics and stunning melodies with Garfunkel’s soaring tenor, and their perfectly blended, intricate harmonies, provided the perfect platform for some of the most memorable songs of all time. And yet, while their music was transcendent, their relationship was fractured and complicated. Like Lennon and McCartney, their musically complementary differences caused impossible friction, and they parted ways in the early 70’s. Love of their music, however, never abated. Despite successful solo careers, their reunion concerts and tours together have proven iconic, drawing millions of listeners from across generations.

Music Legends: The Simon and Garfunkel Story celebrates the entire career of Simon & Garfunkel, their years together, their time apart, and their many reunions. From the team that brought you The Billy Joel Story, The Troubadours and The Paul McCartney Story, comes a thrilling 2-Act Celebration of some of the best songs ever written. Performed live by the Music Legends band, this promises to be an incredibly joyful show, not to be missed!

They were two of the biggest hit-makers of the 60s and 70s - and they dated in high school! Yes, Neil Sedaka hired a tux, borrowed his dad’s car and drove Carole King to the prom!

They never wrote a song together but continued to support and inspire each other as they worked side by side in New York’s legendary hit factory, The Brill Building, churning out hit after hit! (Neil’s million seller ‘Oh Carol’ was inspired by their years of puppy love).

Their hits include ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow’, ‘Calendar Girl’, ‘I’m Into Something Good’, ‘Is This the Way to Amarillo?, ‘Natural Woman’, ‘Stupid Cupid’, ‘The Locomotion’, ‘Breaking Up Is Hard to Do’, ‘Little Devil’, ‘It’s Too Late’, ‘Solitaire’, ‘Love Will Keep Us Together’, ‘Crying in The Rain’, ‘Go Away Little Girl’, ‘Laughter in The Rain’, ‘I Feel the Earth Move’, ‘You’ve Got A Friend’, and many more!

Oh Carole! celebrates young love, a lifelong friendship and songs that go ‘Doo, Dooby Doo, Wah Wah’. It’s a toe-tapping tribute to the most joyful era of pop music and two of the greatest songwriters of all time!

Josephine Wants to Dance

Thursday 1 May 10:30am & 12:30pm                                                                   

She's bold. She's bouncy. She's back!

Josephine Wants To Dance is a hilarious musical about the importance of believing in yourself and realising your dreams and... a dancing kangaroo! Based on the picture book by Jackie French and Bruce Whatley, this delightful musical is a must-see!

Josephine is a kangaroo who loves to dance. Her little brother, Joey, tells her kangaroos don't dance, they hop - but Josephine continues to point her toes and leap through the air. When a ballet troupe comes to the sleepy town of Shaggy Gully, Josephine desperately wants to dance like the ballerinas in pink tutus and silk ballet shoes.

On the day of the first performance, the Ballet Company is in trouble. The prima ballerina twists her ankle and the understudy has a splinter in her toe. Who can dance the lead role? Josephine's talents are called upon to help save the day. Can she do it, and more importantly, does it matter that she's a kangaroo?

“A complete delight.” - Jo Litson, Daily Telegraph

Jamie and Ari like each other. Karin and Tom do too. They might be at two separate parties, but their stories are identical. Until they aren't.

Part documentary, part confession, part open conversation, Yes Yes Yes is a theatre show created specifically for young adults exploring the knotty and necessary topics of healthy relationships, desire and consent.

Featuring in-depth interviews with teenagers, Yes Yes Yes is empathic, empowering and engaging for young adult audiences. Humorous, witty and moving, it sparks conversation where conversation can be difficult!

"Funny, thoughtful and entirely relatable….I can't recommend this highly enough; it should be a must for teens and their caregivers.” - NZ Herald

International research tells us the most effective way to support young people to have happy, healthy relationships is to talk about the good stuff - desire, attraction and most importantly consent, and what it looks like. Young people actually already have the skills, but they haven't always been taught to use them in sexual or romantic contexts.” - Karin McCracken, co-creator & performer of Yes Yes Yes

The Roy Orbison Story

Sunday 11 May 2:00pm                                                                   

Experience the wonder of Roy Orbison in this brilliant theatrical portrayal of the man, his music, his voice, & his life.

You will find yourself believing you are in his presence, transported back in time, reliving the emotion of each of his songs & the stories of his life.

Mark Shelley is simply brilliant in his characterisation of Roy. He not only has the vocal range & tone to honour his songs, but he also has the sensitivity & artistic ability to ‘be’ Roy.

Without a doubt, this is the definitive portrayal of Roy Orbison - the man, his music & his life.

'Only the Lonely', 'Running Scared', 'Sweet Dream Baby', 'Candy Man', 'Blue Bayou', 'In Dreams', 'Anything You Want', 'Crying', 'Workin for the Man', 'Penny Arcade', 'Pretty Woman', and many more.

The ‘Big O’ stood head & shoulders above the rest, his vocals were peerless, his range extraordinary. His songs are unique, impassioned & personal. Orbison, the man, was enigmatic, driven, shy, funny, and quietly charismatic.

From his initial success in the 1960s to the resurgence of his career in the '80s, Roy Orbison’s voice remained remarkable, communicating an emotional intensity not experienced in popular music before or since. His songs conveyed vulnerability, love, loss & fun. His performance was unique, simple & powerful.

Orbison’s life was littered with personal tragedy, & career highs & lows. His wonderful resurgence in popularity in the late '80s through his legendary ‘Black & White Night’ Concert, his solo album ‘Mystery Girl’, & the formation of the Supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys’ was a fitting final chapter for such a creative genius.

Children Are Stinky is an exciting award-winning children’s comedy by Circus Trick Tease!

Set in the 90s, with plenty of in-jokes and cleverly choreographed nostalgia, parents are in for a rollicking trip down memory lane. This is an enjoyable show for all ages that encourages the slight of years to be proud of themselves.
