GYPSY
Music by Julie Stein. Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Based on a book by Arthur Laurents
Sondheim’s delightful Broadway classic is considered to be one of the crowning achievements of mid-twentieth century musical theatre. Gypsy is loosely based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, the famous striptease artist, and focuses on her mother, Rose, “the ultimate, aggressive showbiz mother.” Her dreams and efforts to raise two daughters to perform onstage are revealed, casting an affectionate eye on the hardships of show business life.
BAREFOOT in the PARK (12 – 29 March)
Neil Simon
Author of The Odd Couple, Pulitzer prize winner, Neil Simon, is one of America’s greatest writers.
Barefoot In The Park celebrates Corie, a free-spirited young girl, who marries Paul, a conservative lawyer. The inevitable tensions, combined with the colour and “interest” of a Greenwich Village neighbourhood make for an enjoyable romantic comedy.
PRIVATE LIVES
Noel Coward
A sharply witty comedy about 2 divorcees who concurrently re-marry younger partners and discover that they are honeymooning in adjacent hotel rooms
KISS ME QUICKSTEP
Amanda Whittington
A fly-on-the-wall, whole-of-picture characterisation of the dazzling, sequin-studded world of Ballroom competition. Behind the immaculate glamour and skill lie the stresses, sacrifice and costs of extreme competion.

SENSE AND SENSIBILITY
Jane Austen. Adapted by Frances Poet
