Juet Sculpture: Treasure Hunting

Michael Hyett and Martin Judd create figurative and abstract sculptures of found, recycled and discarded objects unravelling the stories and histories of people who provide the materials.

"Using found objects from the local area we will tell the stories of local people through sculpture. We will ask friends, family, and acquaintances from the local area to invite us into their sheds and junk piles to unravel the stories and history of those people through their donation of discarded rusty old metal objects. It is these stories that are told by the found objects that we call our treasure!"

Quorum Group: Unconscious Creativity

Quorum is a group of women artists who started 6 years ago.

This exploration has led to a body of work that has become quite abstract and diversified for each artist over time. The artists: Jenny Pring-Morgan, Chris Spokes, Megan Shiel, Yvonne Picot and Bernadette Burke-Reynolds.

Liz Frencham

Presented by Ranges Concert Lounge

Embracing her double bass like a lover, Liz invites you along a journey through a luminous emotional landscape, reassuring you with a warm, generous voice and a smile which has become her trademark. She has become an audience favourite on the music festival circuit whether performing alone, with Sydney band Jigzag, award winning songwriter Fred Smith, Melbourne's first all girl Old Timey outfit Dev'lish Mary, iconic vaudeville showman Mic Conway or 2008 National Flat pick guitar champion Robbie Long. There is something undeniably sensual about the way her double bass & body become indistinguishable in full flight. Add to this how the velvety warmth of her vocals linger like a nice merlot and you will understand her universal appeal.

The Ranges Concert Lounge is held on the last Friday of every month featuring great music in the relaxed and friendly, intimate atmosphere of the Burrinja Café in Upwey. The cafe/bar has a wide variety of delicious food so you can come along and have dinner there before or during the show.

Possum Magic 2013 - The Final Farewell Tour!

Based on the book written by Mem Fox and illustrated by Julie Vivas

Grandma Poss made bush magic. She made Wombats blue and Kookaburra’s pink, Dingo’s smile and Emu’s shrink, but the best magic of all was the Possum Magic that made Baby Hush invisible.

First published in 1983 Possum Magic was an instant success with children and parents alike. In 1990 the musical stage adaptation had its world premiere, which was sold out before it opened. Since then Possum Magic - The Musical is now firmly established as the most successful musical for children and families ever.

Possum Magic 2013 will be the Final Farwell Tour and it is bound to be the highlight of children’s theatre for the year.

Suitable for ages 3+.

Art

a comedy by Yasmina Reza Translated by Christopher Hampton

Friends. You love them but sometimes you just can't understand them. Especially when they do something completely unexpected ... something that makes you wonder how they ever became your friends in the first place.

Serge has bought a modern painting for a huge sum of money. His best friend, Marc, hates it. Marc can't believe that any friend of his could possibly want such a thing. Enter Yvan – the mutual friend, the go-between, the meat in the sandwich.

The question is: Are you who you think you are? Or are you who your friends think you are?

A hit in the West End, Broadway and all around the world, 'Art' is "a remarkably wise, witty and intelligent comedy ... 'Art' has touched a universal nerve." The Times

Featuring Robert Jarman as Marc, John Xintavelonis as Yvan, and Jeff Michel as Serge. This trio are sure to serve up an unforgettable evening at the theatre.

The Haunting of Daniel Gartrell

Max Gillies and Samuel Johnson star in this gothic drama about isolation, history, and identity.

A suburban hermit's life unravels when confronted by his own dark secrets in the darkly humorous play written by award-winning Australian playwright Reg Cribb.

Reclusive bush poet Daniel Gartrell (Max Gillies) is haunted by bad memories and even worse dreams. Intruding upon his isolation are his vampish daughter, Sarah (Marcella Russo) and the eager actor Craig Castevich (Samuel Johnson), who's been cast as Gartrell in a new film and is keen to learn what makes the great man tick.

What he discovers may very well send him screaming out into the night.

The Book Club

By Rodney Fisher from the play by Roger Hall

Genteel housewife and mother Deborah has an addiction.'I'm a bookaholic,' she confesses. 'I just can't help myself.'

For recent empty nester Deborah, the real spice of her life is her book club. For the women who take part, it's a meeting of minds – and their very different lifestyles. For Deborah, the club is a chance to gather the juicy gossip of her friends' lives and relationships. But when a famous author joins the group for a study session, Deborah's own life suddenly switches from an old wives' tale to the stuff of erotic fiction. The ensuing affair takes her love of linguistics to a whole new level.

Australia's leading stage actress, Amanda Muggleton, returns to this brilliantly scripted star role to give us a hysterical peek behind the closed doors of suburbia.
