Whats On?

Our 2024 Season - Season 2025 is coming soon!

Bondi Legal

21 November - 7 December 2024

By Tony Laumberg

Directed by Chris Austin-Greenhill
Assistant Director: Liz Ball

Sun, Surf & Solicitors!

A comedy thriller described as Erin Brockovich meets the Castle, based on a true story. Hapless anxiety-prone lawyer Brad Pitt ( no relation ) turns up to fill in for the day for a lawyer on holiday and is thrust unprepared into a complex case where a mother is suing a chemical giant because her daughter's show pony was ravaged by the company's cleaning product. Facing a lawyer who resembles a rottweiler and a scowling magistrate, Brad Pitt has to overcome the odds including a strange habit of passing out and waking up thinking he is a gorilla. What follows is a fish out of water farce which shows it is never too late to realise your potential. "A funny and touching play" Stage Whispers Magazine.

Rated PG.

Stepping Out - (Season Closed)

16 May - 1 June 2024

By Richard Harris

Directed by Tracey Spence
Assistant Director Kym Frohloff

This is a warm-hearted comedy about the attempts of some working-class amateurs to overcome their inhibitions and left feet in a low-rent dance studio in North London. Mavis, a former professional chorus girl tries her hardest to teach the bumbling amateurs some terpsichorean skills for an upcoming recital. But before the dancing begins Mavis must mediate the minor dramas that erupt among this motley but loveable crew on their way to triumph at their recital. Liza Minnelli starred as Mavis in the popular film.

Rated PG.
