Bosom Buddies
Nancye Hayes and Todd McKenney are pals, chums, bosom buddies. Both are multi award winners and true showbiz legends. In this new show, they reflect on their stage careers and their lives off stage as well as on! They sing, they dance, and they reminisce – about the lows as well as the highs. They tell back stage stories never before told and they show video footage never before seen. This true story is, in turns, moving, poignant and hilarious. During each performance the audience is invited to ask the questions they’ve always wanted to ask. Answers guaranteed! Nancye and Todd delighted us with the enormously successful Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks and we welcome them back for another memorable theatrical delight. Full $68 Conc $65 Under 25 $25

Hotel Sorrento
Family is at the core of the award winning Hotel Sorrento, as we are taken on a wonderful journey of Full $50 humour and drama that tells the Conc $47 Under 25 $25 story of three sisters who grew up together in the seaside town, Sorrento. Hilary lives in the family home with her father and 16 year-old son. Pippa, a business woman, is visiting from New York and Meg, a successful writer, returns from England. When the three sisters are reunited in Sorrento after 10 years apart they again feel the constraints of family life. A semi-autobiographical book written by middle sister and expat Meg triggers the familial tensions and dramas that eventuate. Hotel Sorrento is about family in a literal and metaphorical sense and the importance of blood ties and collective memory, true or false. Saturday 14 July 2pm & 8pm
