What's On At Goodwood Theatre & Studios

6 daring and passionate writers/performers will come together to create a brand-new show in an exciting project directed by Connor Reidy. 

​

Over six months, creatives will be given the same brief plus prompts along the development process, each creating a 10-minute original monologue. In the final week, creatives will come together to rehearse each piece and develop a cohesive production. 

​

The cast includes Prosper Hakizimana, Melissa Pullinger, Luca Sardelis, Rob C Wells, Luke Wiltshire and Chloe Zodrow

My Voice in My Hands is a free, public, stimulating and highly interactive forum presented by the City of Unley.

 

Aimed at hearing the voices of younger people (16 - 40), the forum will address the questions:

​

What could be done to help your voice be heard and enable you to be an active citizen in our democracy?

What can you do and what could the government do?

​

Guided by an eminent panel of experts, you will be invited to shape the future of democracy in real time, using mobile technology. Shape the agenda for active community citizenship for the next 30 years. Tell us the steps to progress a transparent, engaged and active community where voices are heard and actions are delivered. Grab a drink from Bill’s Bar before and after the event to carry on the conversation.

Juno knows hugs. In her 30-something years she’s had everything from the truly wonderful hug number 32, the ‘God-I-love-you-and-everything-about-this-hug-is-just-so-right’ hug, right through to the truly awful hug number 94, the ‘I-do-not-want-you-this-close-to-me-and-I-wish-I-was-anywhere-but-here’ hug. But can something as simple as a hug really change your life?

Blending spoken word poetry with round-the-kitchen-table style storytelling, Juno journeys through her personal hug repertoire, weaving tales of loss and love as she figures out what to do with this one glorious life. One hug at a time.

Heartwarming, poignant and captured by Sarah Peters’ trademark lyrical storytelling and warmth, An Incomplete Encyclopedia of Hugs is a one-woman theatre-shaped hug for your soul.

Starring Claire Glenn, directed by Eliza Lovell and presented by South Australian Playwrights Theatre, make sure to get your tickets early for this unique and intimate theatrical experience.

 

Marie Clark Musical Theatre proudly presents the South Australian Premiere of Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier (originally produced by StarKid Productions).

 

Written in the style of Wicked, Twisted is a musical parody of Disney's Aladdin, retelling this classic story from the villain's point of view...

 

Ja’far is a hardworking, honest politician in a magic kingdom that has fallen on hard times. Corruption and crime is rampant on all levels (thanks to the efforts of that thief, Aladdin!) and the kingdom is on the verge of bankruptcy. When the naive princess angers the prince of the Kingdom of Pik-zahr, Ja’far remembers a tale of an all-powerful Djinn, hidden in a common lamp. To save the kingdom from certain destruction and ensure a happy ending for all, Ja’far must do everything he can to get his hands on that lamp, even when the road gets a little... twisted!

 

Rating: Twisted contains adult themes and strong language, recommended for mature audiences only.
