Oh fantastic, I’ve been meaning to buy a small child for that potion I’ve been brewing up.

Ever so convenient, you can pick up the rest of the herbs for your potion at the EPIC Farmer’s Market at the same time. Not sure where you’ll find eye of newt though.

Two great improvised shows at The Street Theatre (Saturday and Sunday night).

Impro Secret

Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 May, 7pm
Tickets : $13 (or $22 with a ticket to The Target!)
The Street Theatre, Cnr childers St and University Avenue
Book on 02 6247 1223 or at http://www.impro.com.au/shows.php?from=ra_comment.

Secrets, cloak and dagger, undisclosed information, hidden meaning, surreptitious gestures, furtive glances, mysterious strangers appearing at the door and skeletons in the cupboard. This show is about everything hush-hush.

Teams of improvisers will compete in Theatresports games and impro challenges around the theme of secrets to earn favour of the audience who will decide the outcome.

Come along for a fun night out and cheer on a team as everything is revealed with unexpected and hilarious consequences!

Be sure to book your tickets in advance for ‘Impro Secret’ to ensure you don’t miss out!

The Target

Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 May, 8:30pm
Tickets : $13 (or $22 with a ticket to Impro Secret!)
The Street Theatre, Cnr childers St and University Avenue
Book on 02 6247 1223 or at http://www.impro.com.au/shows.php?from=ra_comment.

Humans are all driven by ‘The Target’. It is that goal, objective or motivation that propels us forward. Breakfast in bed – is it a kind gesture or a deliberate ploy to butter someone up? A fine glass of wine for a guest but none for the host – is it good manners or something more dastardly?

This show will explore the objectives and desires that motivate characters be it silly, serious or sinister. The cast will perform improvised scenes inspired by the theme ‘The Target’ which will deliver the audience a collection of rich and engaging characters in quirky and funny scenes.

Come along for improvised entertainment that will hit the bullseye.

Be sure to book your tickets in advance for ‘The Target’ to ensure you don’t miss out!
