THE BEES SHOW - LIVE

W

**W** Written by Madelaine Nunn Directed by Rachel Chant Set inside the high-pressure world of AFLW, ‘W’ tracks an elite women’s football team throughout their season as they push towards finals. At its centre is Rosie, the team’s star captain, navigating leadership, legacy, and the cost of staying at the top. As the team trains, wins, and fractures, personal lives collide with professional expectations. Ambition, motherhood, and media scrutiny sit alongside the raw physicality of the game. Success on the field demands sacrifice off it - and every choice has a consequence. Fast-paced, funny, and emotionally charged, ‘W’ is an intimate and gritty look at women’s sport at a turning point: where bodies are pushed, relationships are tested, and legacy is anything but guaranteed. Please purchase your own tickets via the link below & only then RSVP ATTEND. The show starts at 7.00 pm so I will meet you about half an hour before. I am staying for the late show Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey Bake a Cake so stay if you can for both! https://www.oldfitztheatre.com.au/w-the-play The membership fee is available via the link below.

MACKENZIE

MACKENZIE - Bell Shakespeare Script and Songs, and Consulting Producer Yve Blake Directed by Virginia Gay Mackenzie is 13 and she’s booked her first-ever TV gig: a tiny part on a huge kids show. It’s a small start, but Mackenzie’s mum has always felt sure that her daughter was destined for superstardom. One day, Mackenzie and her best on-set friend Beau encounter a geriatric make-up artist who is struck with a vision – that Mackenzie will be NUMBER ONE POP GIRL OF THE WORLD. Directed by the electric Virginia Gay, this hilariously macabre play (with songs) charts Mackenzie’s rise to fame fuelled by a cut-throat stage mum who will stop at absolutely nothing. Set in the heights of early 2000s TV stardom, prepare for a wild ride that will leave you in stitches – and deeply disturbed. A hilarious, twisted, and deeply camp reimagining of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. This is a preview event as the tickets were less than half the price of the main season! Please purchase your own tickets via the link below & only then RSVP ATTEND. The show starts at 7pm so I will meet you about 20mins before. I have tickets in A & B & C rows centre block. https://www.bellshakespeare.com.au/mackenzie The membership fee is available via the link below.

ALFRED KOURIS AND HARRY STACEY BAKE A CAKE (late show)

ALFRED KOURIS AND HARRY STACEY BAKE A CAKE Created & Performed by Alfred Kouris & Harry Stacey Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey are a mess – in life, in the kitchen, and on the Old Fitz stage. In principle, baking a cake is a relatively simple task. In practice, it is an escalating disaster of ego, friendship, and the ever-present horror of realising you might not actually know what you’re doing. Unprofessional Chefs Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey were told it was impossible. They’d never seen it done, only heard whispers of the possibilities. "It needs to cool before you can ice it.” "You can't put an oven inside a theatre.” They have heard it all before. Join them as they take a stand against those who don’t believe in an hour of friendship, introspection, and the desperate need to find purpose in the mess of it all. Let them eat cake… Hopefully. Please purchase your own tickets via the link below & ONLY THEN RSVP ATTEND.I will be at the mainstream show before this "W" so come to both if you can! https://www.oldfitztheatre.com.au/alfred-kouris-and-harry-stacey-bake-a-cake The show starts at 9.00 pm so I will meet you about 20 mins before.

Edward Albee's At Home At The Zoo

Edward Albee's At Home At The Zoo Writer: Edward Albee Director: James Litchfield Peter and Ann have two daughters. Peter and Ann have two parakeets. Peter and Ann have two cats. Peter and Ann have two microwaves. Peter and Ann are two married people who have slept together for years, and are not like those married people who can suddenly behave like strangers, like people who’ve just met in a bar and gone to the motel next to door to hammer it all out. Peter is a man with a wife, two daughters, two parakeets, two cats, and two microwaves. Jerry is a man with not much of anything at all. Edward Albee’s first play, a one-act story about two strangers called The Zoo Story was first performed in 1959. 45 years later, Albee finally “completed” the play by writing a first act about a long married couple, and the play was renamed At Home At The Zoo. Please purchase your own preview tickets via the link below & only then RSVP ATTEND. The show starts at 7.00 pm so I will meet you about half an hour before. https://www.flightpaththeatre.org/whats-on/at-home-at-the-zoo The membership fee is available via the link below.

The fee can be paid in person, or by transferring to the following account: Name: Theatre Games BSB: 923 100 Acc No: 313632027 Use your name in the reference line so the Treasurer can keep track of your contribution. If you choose to pay the annual membership fee, it would be a great help to us if you would note your membership start date, and renew your membership when needed. This will avoid us spending time on account-keeping, which means we can instead focus on making the games as fun as possible! We have Facebook and Instagram pages, on which we post group photos and occasionally other announcements. Feel free to Like :) [https://www.facebook.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park-Sydney-487255451682498/](https://www.facebook.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park-Sydney-487255451682498/) [https://www.instagram.com/theatregamesintheparksydney](https://www.instagram.com/theatregamesintheparksydney?fbclid=IwAR2fMlbCnv1PVQXX0xO7d6d_4mMDsXtT3dcs1awToamKK-ag1AAQhVYyPLQ) **FAQ** **Location & Parking** [https://maps.app.goo.gl/Yed3pMB9eC1oeAXA7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/Yed3pMB9eC1oeAXA7) Between Church St and Sorrell St. Near the river. Down the stairs from the Riverside Theatre and to the east along the path. If you have trouble finding us, please post in the event comments as we'll keep an eye on this. Parking is free and usually ample in northern Parramatta, in Sorrell Street and surrounding streets to the north of the river. **Instructional videos for newcomers** For those completely new to the concept of theatre games or improvisation, you might find the following instructional videos helpful to you: 1. The importance of facing the audience in the right way [https://youtu.be/VO7EXv-dVYA](https://youtu.be/VO7EXv-dVYA) 2\. The importance of not saying "no" to everything in a scene: [https://youtu.be/GjptDwG96e8](https://youtu.be/GjptDwG96e8) **Why is my status saying "Unpaid" even though I have paid?** This is due to a bad design feature of the Meetup website, please ignore it! **Keeping up with the latest news and related fun events** Go to our Facebook Discussion Group. This is a fun way to share improv/comedy clips, discuss improv and generally chat with the cool members of our group! [https://www.facebook.com/groups/2112357978921450](https://www.facebook.com/groups/2112357978921450) **What if it rains?** The bridge has been chosen for this reason! A large concrete apron exists under the bridge - easily measuring 5 metres deep and at least 10m long. More than enough space to perform in and yet still provide shelter from rain. **Can you help promote my event / group / cult?** Yes.. but within reason! We love to help our members who are doing awesome and creative projects. The problem is that because we get asked to promote things so often, we cannot do so via social media posts. As this would cause our members to be "spammed" and announcements about upcoming events to get buried. However, there are still two ways we can help to promote your project. Firstly, please feel free to post on our Facebook Discussion group. Secondly, you are also welcome to post in our [Meetup Forum](https://www.meetup.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park/discussions/), where your post may be seen by our 1,800+ members. Lastly, we may be able to help in additional ways if you wish to share an opportunity for our members to perform. In this case we may be able to send a Meetup Message to our members, or to announce it in person at our events. **What if I have other questions?** If possible please post any questions in the comments area below rather than directly messaging us, so that others can see the answer too. This will allow us to spend less time answering messages, and more time making the games as fun as possible!

PROSECUTION - German FF @ Palace Central

***PROSECUTION - German FF @ Palace Central - - -*** Prosecution is an engrossing tale of good versus evil that cleverly combines legal drama and thriller for a powerful and urgent story about the realities of Germany’s judicial system. With all the resources and authority of the state behind her, self-assured young German-Korean prosecutor Seyo Kim (Chen Emilie Yan) is determined to confront far-right violence in eastern Germany. But when she becomes a target, surviving a racist attack, Seyo decides to investigate on her own, defying explicit orders from her superiors and putting her life further at risk. When she finally succeeds in bringing one of the attackers to trial, she fights to expose him as part of a wider right-wing network, digging deep into her office’s archives and weaving a tangled web of connections. But throughout the trial, Seyo begins to learn what it means to trust the pursuit of justice in a state that applies double standards and downplays far-right violence, as the system’s myth of objectivity begins to crumble. The movie starts at 8.45 pm so I will meet you about 20 mins before. Please only RSVP ATTEND if you are certain you will be there. Tickets can be bought on the night at the box office or online below. I have seat F7. **[https://www.palacecinemas.com.au/movies/ger26-prosecution](https://www.palacecinemas.com.au/movies/ger26-prosecution)** Any questions please put a message in the comments below or if on the day text me on 0498826506 Ta Maggy
