The Martin and Lewis Show

CCEntertainment presents

On their first Australian national tour, direct from Las Vegas, is Tom Stevens as Dean Martin accompanied by Tony Lewis as Jerry Lewis. From Atlantic City’s ‘500 Club’ to Las Vegas, the king of comedy Jerry Lewis and the straight talking, smooth singing Dean Martin turned the world on its head when they teamed up in 1946. Tom Stevens and Tony Lewis recreate a timeline of song and comedy from the greatest act of that time. From the duo’s humble beginnings to their solo careers including Everybody Loves Somebody, Volare, Amore and many more, Tom Stevens will have you believing you are watching Dean Martin in 1955. Tony Lewis has won many awards over the past 20 years but his greatest claim, is his tribute to Jerry Lewis. An acclaimed stand alone comedian, Tony Lewis is even better when he teams up with Tom Stevens. Tony’s Typewriter act is said to be the best tribute to Jerry Lewis’ Typewriter scene from Who’s Minding the Store. Tom Stevens has been a well renowned performer in Las Vegas for the past 25 years and his resemblance to Dean Martin is so uncanny that Dean Martin’s own daughter Deana said ‘I’ve never seen anyone look and sound more like my daddy.’ 29 May 7pm.

Performers Dorian Mode and Andrew Wilkie deliver a night of musical cabaret too good to be missed. The music is sublimely smooth, and Mode’s lyrics wry and descriptive, though not without a hint of compassion. His musical partner Wilkie plays the vibraphone.

MEMBERSHIP SHOW PRICES Bell Shakespeare’s Hamlet

By William Shakespeare. Director Damien Ryan. With Josh McConville and Matilda Ridgway Dark acts result in darker consequences. And there is little that’s darker and more complicated than the act of revenge. A family torn apart by murder, a son burdened with the truth and the task of avenging his father, and a country on the brink of war. Anguish, passion and desperation collide in this tragic telling of Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark who is tormented by the impossibility of his dilemma, and who remains one of theatre’s most fascinating characters. Damien Ryan, returning to Bell Shakespeare following the critically acclaimed Henry V in 2014, will deliver a new production of Hamlet, infused with the passion, contemplation and emotion that Shakespeare’s compelling poetry cries out for. Josh McConville (Griffin Theatre Company’s The Boys and Sydney Theatre Company’s Mojo) and Matilda Ridgway (Sport For Jove’s A Doll’s House) will delve into the depths of the complexity, violence, philosophical reflection, madness and maddening seduction of Hamlet. 24 August 8pm Theatre Member $40, Adult $50, Concession $48, Groups 10+ $45, Under 18 $25, School Groups $18
