SUMMARY:The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
DESCRIPTION:Six spellers enter… but only one speller can leave a champion! At least the losers get a juice box… \nThe 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a wildly hilarious take on adolescence\, parenting\, teachers\, and the\nP-A-N-D-E-M-O-N-I-U-M of the world of competitive spelling bees. Centred around a very eclectic group of six mid-pubescent teens\, the show effortlessly weaves its way through the motivations and hopes of each competitor as they vie to take home the spelling championship of a lifetime! But which speller will avoid the soul-crushing ‘ding’ of the bell that signals the end of their time in the competition?

SUMMARY:The Importance Of Being Ernest
DESCRIPTION:Hilarious\, naughty and Wilde\nAlgernon Moncrieff and Jack Worthing are two best friends who are both living double lives. In the city they’re playboys with a libertine reputation\, but in the country they assume pious alter egos to get away from it all. Things get sticky when love enters the mix and the men have to keep track of who they’re pretending to be and when. Floating haughtily above it all is the withering Lady Bracknell\, Victorian London’s socialite extraordinaire and the gatekeeper of all things high society.

SUMMARY:Romeo and Juliet
DESCRIPTION:Our production takes on the spirit of a filthy Italian opera\, driven by love and heat\, fights and fevers of the mind\, and of course\, by Shakespeare’s soaring poetry.

Only its children’s courage to express themselves will bring change. With the mad blood stirring\, two young lovers meet and set in motion the most iconic love story of all time\, that of Juliet and her Romeo.

SUMMARY:Adam Linder:  Hustle Harder
DESCRIPTION:The internationally acclaimed Australian choreographer Adam Linder will present a performance exhibition devised for the MCA Macgregor Gallery. Linder makes work for both the stage and gallery spaces\, often riffing on the histories and social codes that underpin these different contexts.

A cast of dancers will perform for the duration of the museum’s opening hours over a month-long period\, hustling for attention with other works in the exhibition space.
