Tuesday 28 July

“Murray’s ultimate respect for love and marriage and the belief that when people stop growing they die, makes Wallflowering a fascinating and rewarding play.”

HIT Productions returns with a new production of Wallflowering, by awardwinning Australian playwright Peta Murray, a delightfully amusing and poignant story about marriage, happiness and the pursuit of the perfect foxtrot, featuring world-class ballroom dancing. Peg and Cliff Small are an ordinary, suburban, middleaged couple... who once were prize-winning ballroom dancers. Wallflowering traces the evolution of their relationship from its halcyon, dancing days – including younger versions of themselves performing world-class dance routines – to their present-day struggles with adapting to a rapidly changing world. Funny, moving and at times dazzling, Wallflowering is must-see entertainment, directed by AACTA-award winning Denny Lawrence (My Brilliant Divorce, Shirley Valentine). Date/Time: Tuesday 28 July, 1pm & 7.30pm Duration: 90 mins (no interval) Venue: Shirley Burke Theatre 64 Parkers Rd, Parkdale Seating: Allocated Tickets: Full $45 Concession $35 Group 6+ $35 Book now: 9556 4440 kingstonarts.com.au

Voyage is a universal story combining Australian history with gifted songwriting from the three women lead-performers, who will also deliver a songwriting workshop for community members (details in panel at right). Based on the research of historian Dr Liz Rushen, Voyage draws from the stories of more than 200 women who made the journey from Britain to Sydney in 1833. History never sounded so good!
