11.01.2022 IMPORTANT AUDITION INFORMATION If you don’t know who you are and you don’t know where you’re headed, you might find yourself spiralling in ever-tightening circles until you come to rest in a nondescript part of town; in a crummy two-star hotel, where the service is churlish, the lift doesn’t work, the toast is burnt and the pot plants set off your allergies. But! Keep our expectations low, really low, and who knows? You might be pleasantly surprised by how everything work...s out. An absurdist comedy full of whimsy and wit with liberal lashings of life’s painfully poignant moments. CAST 3 female - 4 male 2 x middle aged men 1 young couple 1 middle aged couple 1 older woman CONTACT DIRECTOR LYNN CROPP to register your interest in auditioning and to obtain a perusal script. Email: [email protected] FB: Lynn Cropp via messenger MOB: 0407 633 150 *** Production team also required please contact to register interest / attend auditions. #wereback #therondocairns #rondotheatre #lovelivetheatre #rondotheatrecairns #cairnstheatre #lifewithoutme #danielkeene @ The Rondo Theatre - Cairns

06.01.2022 10 Questions With The Director final instalment...Abi continues her quest to chat with Lynn. Just 5 nights to go until opening night for Life Without Me... Come and join us once again February 26th to March 6th for a laugh 'round The Rondo... What's it all about?... Seeking refuge from a world outside of their control, John and his fellow guests arrive breathless and off-balance in the lobby of a crappy two-star hotel. The lift is broken and the toast is burnt. Trapped in this purgatory, not yet properly arrived, and not entirely departed, they ask the existential question, where am I, and how did I get here? I love a stage production that leaves gaps for the audience to fill in loose ends to continue the narrative. This play is like that. Not a neatly wrapped up package. Still a bit frayed and tattered like life. Director Lynn Cropp Award winning Australian writer Daniel Keene is one of the most important playwrights spanning the 20th and 21st centuries. On the surface the play is funny, absurd, even farcical, but underneath there are serious moments and questions. Tickets available at Ticketlink...see you there

05.01.2022 The gang are back live from The Rondo. Tune in 7pm tonight...
