24.01.2022 Hello all, we recently emailed our members, but for those here who may also be interested in what we are doing: GRTG Members and Friends, Greetings to our existing, and our new, members and friends.... You can possibly guess what is coming... In light of the current event around the world and here in Australia, and to protect those of our wonderful GRTG family who may have weak immune systems, or who fall into the other 'at higher risk' groups, we have made the very tough decision to postpone "Ladies in Black" for 2020. We will instead aim to put it on in 2021, so it's not shelved altogether. This decision was a hard one to make, but we as a production team, with the committee's backing, feel it is the right call. Should the crisis abate within the next couple of months, the production team may look at putting together a small concert type format production, but that will depend on a lot of variables. We will keep you all informed. Thank you for your understanding in these uncharted times. If you have any questions relating to the postponement of "Ladies in Black", please message Kylie, our wonderful director, via this page. Stay safe, wash your hands & be considerate of others. From: The Production Team.

18.01.2022 It's funny, it's thought provoking, it really draws on the actors'ability. - Philip This is one of the many quotes we gathered from the audience following Friday's performance of Cosi. Melbourne city in the 1970s is engulfed in anti-Vietnam war protests. Lewis, a young university graduate, is employed to direct a 'play' with the inmates of a mental asylum. ... Meanwhile, tensions rise between Lewis, his best mate and girlfriend as they discover the true meaning of 'Love'. This play is both comical and meaningful as it explores the true meaning of being 'different from the rest of society'. Mental patients, a first time director and relationship problems. What could go wrong? For tickets visit, www.grtg.com.au
