President’s Spot – July

Jul 4, 2017 | Presidents Message

Hi Everyone,

What a stunning piece of theatre Greenwicks was! So much talent and energy on and off stage. We are fortunate indeed to have a musical director with John McPherson’s energy and talent as a member of our theatre. His enthusiasm totally infected the cast and the results were amazing. Take a well-deserved bow John! I’d also like to acknowledge John’s writing partner and ‘star of the show’ James Marzec – fabulous performance!

Grease now takes its turn on the Limelight stage – it is a collaboration between Wanneroo Rep and Mater Dei college. 38 talented young people appearing on stage and nearly as many working to get them there. Unfortunately many of you will not have been able to see this production, which was a sell out before it opened! So, theatre goers, next time we remind you to book early!

See you at the theatre.

President’s Spot – June

Jun 17, 2017 | Presidents Message

Hi Everyone,

Have you noticed how quickly time seems to pass these days – or is it just me? No, I didn’t think so! It seems no time since I sat down to write something for the newsletter last month!

As always the theatre has been very busy getting ready for the next production, “Greenwicks!” – an odd name for a musical indeed, but it is the name of the supermarket in which the play is set. I’ve been fortunate enough to look in on a couple of rehearsals, and to say I’ve been impressed is an understatement. The band alone is worth the price of admission! I do hope you have all booked to see this excellent locally-written production. Your committee is constantly working towards making the Limelight Theatre the best theatre in Perth, and we have been lucky enough to be granted some funds as promised by your newly- elected MLA for Wanneroo, Sabine Winton. This will go towards replacing our stage curtains and upgrading the furnishings and décor in the foyer, so expect to see a ‘face lift’ very soon.
Another group in the theatre work tirelessly each Tuesday morning to help keep the theatre in good working order. We call them the “Tuesday Task Force” and, if any of you would like to join in on Tuesday morning, from around 9am to 12 noon, you’d be very, very welcome….
Coffee and chat around 10am!
See you at the theatre….

Kind regards

Shelley McGinn

Audition Notice – Pygmalion

May 19, 2017 | Past Shows

Professor of phonetics Henry Higgins makes a bet that he can train a bedraggled Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, to pass for a duchess at an ambassador’s garden party by teaching her to assume a veneer of gentility, the most important element of which, he believes, is impeccable speech.
The play is a sharp lampoon of the rigid British class system of the day and a commentary on women’s independence.

Information night: 16th July, 2pm
Audition Dates: July 29-30
Rehearsals begin: August 28th
Performance Dates: October 12 – 15, 18 – 21
