21.01.2022 Blue Mountains Radio Players is looking for an assistant SFX person. We are currently using a program called SCS -Sound Control Systems- for editing and producing the sound effects, and Mixpad with Wavepad for processing the play recordings. We have a Zoom 8 track mixing desk and a Behringer 6 track mixing desk which we use for performances and the usual lineup of microphones, cables, stands and powered speakers. Our dream project is to have built a "Sound cabinet" so that ...we can produce many sound effects "Live".

16.01.2022 We are working on what we can do for the 25th of July. If we can get the people we will put on "The Millionairess" which we have been rehearsing in June. It depends whether or not Gladys keeps the 4M rule. If she does then it makes it impossible to fit enough people in the room to make it viable. Stay tuned..........................
16.01.2022 The Proposal - August 2019
16.01.2022 I have uploaded the three plays that were performed on Sunday to Soundcloud.com The three Mrs Madderleys Starlight The Pardoners Tale... Our play for June is the Millionairess.
15.01.2022 I have uploaded "Vacation Time" from the "My Favourite Husband" series starring Lucille Ball and Richard Denning, to Soundcloud.com. Running time is 23 minutes. I have used the original music to maintain the atmosphere, even though it is very LO-FI.
15.01.2022 Our next performance is on Sunday 27th June at 2:30 pm. We are presenting a wonderful play by George Bernard Shaw, "The Millionairess", very funny, with his brilliant use of the English language. We will have an overflow facility available in the Palais Royale Lounge, where there will be bar service available, and an audio feed from the Ballroom. Just like being at home listening to the radio. For a trial this facility will be free of charge.... No bookings necessary, but early arrival recommended. Make sure to bring your masks, just in case Gladys makes it mandatory! See more

13.01.2022 Due to circumstances beyond our control, i.e. media madness, we are cancelling our performances for the immediate future. Please watch this space for updates. Our current play in rehearsal The Birds will probably resurface then, strangely that story has quite a few parallels to what is going on at the moment. Stay well and prosper... BM RAdio Players.

06.01.2022 For those members of BMRP a big thank you for Sunday, the biggest roll-up we have every had, 75 paying customers, and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon tea, not to mention the two wonderful plays, "A Christmas Carol" and "The Artists". The sound effects team outdid themselves with clanking chains and roaring trains. Sorry I cant be at the Christmas Bash, but family commitments have got in the way. Merry Christmas See you next year.... President/Treasurer Phil See more
06.01.2022 Our plays for March are: Death on the Tablelands by Ray Feehelly. Ray is one of our own and has written this play to add to our library of locally sourced material. It is a story of murder and detective work located in the Southern Tablelands of NSW.... Some fascinating sound effects for me, including exploding gas bottles! Our second play is Evening Primrose, written by John Collier in 1947. It is one of the Escape series of mystery and horror put to air by the Columbia Broadcasting Network in the USA. It is the story of a writer - maybe the writer - searching for the perfect place in which to write. He finds it but it has serious problems, and a love interest, overall a very interesting tale with a twist in it!

03.01.2022 SADLY SADLY, we have to cancel next Sunday’s Radio Play performance. Gladys has struck again, the 4 Metre rule makes an audience unviable, and the actors having to wear masks adds further problems. Stay tuned to this space for further updates. Yours in Radio... Philip Hammon See more
