THE CLAPTON UNPLUGGED SHOW THE MAN... THE MUSIC...

Celebrating Eric Clapton and his legendary Unplugged concert.

Layla, Signe, Before You Accuse Me, Running on Faith, Tears In Heaven, Wonderful Tonight and I Shot the Sheriff...

Eric Clapton’s career has spanned over six decades. Lauded as being the greatest guitarist of all time, his roots are firmly and obviously embedded in the blues tradition of which he remains both a student and visionary. In his unforgettable Unplugged concert, Clapton paid homage and respect to his roots and those fellow legends that influenced his playing so significantly.

The Clapton Unplugged Show features the inspired vocals and guitar playing of Mark Shelley, who, with his long term band, respectfully recreates the magic of that event.

GLASSHOUSE PORT MACQUARIE & GREATER PORT MACQUARIE FOCUS PRESENT

THE SAPPHIRES

This uplifting Australian musical, full of comedy, heart and romance, together with unbeatable soul music, will stay with you for years to come.

The Sapphires is a funny, heart-warming tale inspired by the true story of four spirited Yorta Yorta women, who were plucked from obscurity by a kind-hearted, soul-loving manager to sing classic soul hits to entertain American troops in Vietnam.

Wearing sequins, armed only with microphones and powerhouse voices, they find themselves trying to spread joy in the hell that is the Vietnam War. Their journey offers them the chance to change their tune, their lives and maybe even find love.

This multiple award-winning musical inspired the film!

THE ADDAMS FAMILY – PLAYERS THEATRE DIRECTED BY HAMISH KEDDIE

The Addams Family is a smash-hit musical comedy that brings the darkly delirious world of Gomez, Morticia, Uncle Fester, Grandma, Wednesday, Pugsley and, of course, Lurch to spooky spectacular life.

That lovable family of creepy kooks is alive and well and living in their super-spooky mansion in Central Park. The Addams Family, led by the elegantly gaunt and seemingly undead Morticia and her ever devoted husband Gomez, is in turmoil.

When Wednesday invites her new boyfriend, Lucas Beineke, over with his “normal” family to get better acquainted with the Addams household, comic chaos ensues, and The Addams Family must face the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change.

ANGELICA MESITI – RELAY LEAGUE This message sent by Morse code in 1997 was the poetic starting point for artist Angelica Mesiti. The message was not, as one may assume, a desperate transmission sent from a sinking ship, but rather, the final message signalling the end of the use of Morse code sent by the French Navy. In her latest work, Mesiti takes the dots and dashes of this forsaken language and brings them to life in a three-channel video installation.
