5 IN 10 WORKSHOPS WRAP - FOR NOW
We sang, we laughed and we assisted talented Australian musical theatre writers and composers
to realise their dream – no wonder we’ve all been
smiling and skipping around the office of late!
Kookaburra took 5 new musicals – The Art Of Smiling, The Silver Donkey, For All It’s Worth,
Do Good And You Will Be Happy and In A Pink Tutu – and workshopped them over 10 days with performers, composers, writers, musicians and directors.
The results were amazing.
5 in 10 gave the writers and directors the chance to see their work literally jump off the page.
Performers were given the chance to do the seemingly unimaginable – perform NEW Australian work for the very first time in a professional context.
The works are so vibrant and engaging that excerpts will be performed in our next Up Close And Musical evening at the Seymour Centre.
HUGE congratulations to all who were involved in the 5 in 10 workshops – you really are stars of the future.
An ENORMOUS thank you also to our supporters Ambassador Theatre Group, Ted Horton of Dewey Horton, Dave Wilkinson and Family, Backrow Productions, Chugg Entertainment, Specific Films, Stephen Found, Media Mayer, Jon Nicholls and The Capitol Theatre. Without you these workshops would never have taken place.
Stay tuned for details on MORE 5 in 10 workshops happening throughout the year!
