25.01.2022 Carmen - An Opera Australia Production paranaple arts centre Tuesday 29 June at 7.30pm Bookings: https://www.paranapleartscentre.com.au//opera-australia-c/ Carmen is the femme fatale you can’t forget. ... In Bizet’s famous opera, she sings her sensual Habanera and lures Don José into her world. He gives up everything to follow her. But Carmen’s wandering eye has already found a new lover: the dashing bullfighter Escamillo. Don José’s jealousy is fierce. Escamillo’s passion is strong. In a gripping finale, Carmen must face her fate. Experience the thrilling Spanish colour and rhythms of Bizet’s vibrant score with Opera Australia’s singers, live chamber orchestra and a children’s chorus drawn from the local community. This new production includes gorgeous sets and vintage-inspired costumes. You can hear classics such as the Habanera and the Toreador Song just as Bizet meant them loud, live and completely unamplified. For information on the Children’s Chorus for Opera Australia's production of CARMEN go to: https://www.paranapleartscentre.com.au/childrens-chorus/

18.01.2022 UPDATE: The Greatest Show have released the following statement. The show has been postponed until a future date, still to be confirmed. We will update ticket holders in the near future with more information once plans have been confirmed. Dear TGS Family, extended cast and supporters. It’s with great sadness that we have to inform all of you that The Greatest Show is officially being postponed until later in the year.... Your health and safety and that of everyone involved is our number one priority, and due to the world health crisis with COVID-19 and the ongoing threat to us all, it’s in everyone’s best interest to focus on their own health and wellbeing at this very challenging time. In a very unprecedented rapidly evolving situation, the decision was finalised after multiple conversations over the weekend and meetings all day Monday, looking for the best possible outcomes going forward for the greatest show family and the 2000 ticket holders. This was by no means an easy decision or a decision we could make lightly, particularly with so many people involved in such a big show. Our entire cast are devastated but are excited to reconnect, work had and bring you the greatest show they can later on in the year! We are close to finalising new dates and this will be made public in the coming week in conjunction with the paranaple arts centre.

17.01.2022 Congratulations to the Devonport Choral Society Inc. on a sell-out season! What a great way to get back into live theatre for 2021! Keep an eye out for all upcoming local and touring shows coming to the Town Hall Theatre at www.paranapleartscentre.com.au
13.01.2022 UPDATE: The Devonport Choral Society Inc. have released the following statement. Please continue to monitor our Facebook page or visit www.paranapleartscentre.com.au for information regarding ticket refunds or exchanges. MEDIA RELEASE - The Full Monty Cancelled Sadly, in light of the current Coronavirus pandemic, the Devonport Choral Society will be cancelling this year’s production of The Full Monty.... While the May show is still a little way off, we must look after the health of our players and musicians, so rehearsals cannot go ahead. We are even facing difficulties in rescheduling in 2020 due to the lack of suitable theatre slots, and the fact that a number of our performers are committed elsewhere in the latter half of the year, said Director Sid Sidebottom. The 20-member cast and 8-piece orchestra have been rehearsing since late January with some travelling three times a week from as far as Launceston and Wynyard for singing, music, acting, and choreography sessions. Set pieces have been constructed and costuming is already well underway. Understandably, members of the creative team are very disappointed. Everyone has been working so hard up until now, both behind the scenes and at rehearsals. We thank them for sharing their time and talents with us, said Mr Sidebottom. Of course, we are not the only arts organisation faced with this challenge. We are very proud of what we do and are determined to move forward in a positive way. Devonport Choral Society President Maree Brodzinski said that further details about a future production will be released as soon as there is greater clarity about the course of the virus and the health and safety of players and the public are guaranteed.

Unfortunately, the time has come where the show can no longer go on. We are forced to take an indefinite pause until the ongoing pandemic passes and associated restrictions are lifted. Before having to postpone, the show had been an overwhelming success nearing what promised to be a sold-out season. Please understand that from myself the producer, to every member of the creative team, cast and crew we have left no stone unturned in trying to make the show happen. Putting aside one of your biggest dreams isn't easy. The past few months have been extremely frustrating, and many tears have been shed. So, it’s goodbye for now and we will make a return and present The Greatest Show the way it was intended when the time is right, so that everyone who wanted to see it has the chance. I want to thank everyone that believed in me and acknowledge the amazing commitment from my entire cast. It really was a fabulous show that everyone should be proud of. Thanks to the theatre staff for their hard work in trying to make it happen and lastly the community for the great support along the journey. We are hoping to put together a smaller showcase in the short term. So, keep an eye on Facebook-@mattgosseventmanagement Yours Sincerely Matt Goss
