21.01.2022 So the time has come, the sad news Im sure many of you have been anticipating. In order to protect the company - ie. to continue existing to make our 75th anniversary - weve had to make some big decisions. The biggest being this: Uni Revue 2020 is not going to appear on the Theatre Royal and Princess Theatre stages. Were down but not out, and weve got some things planned for all of you who are stuck at home looking for things to do. So please, keep an eye on our page for upcoming Uni Revue content, have a laugh and a cry at our video, expect your refund soon if youve bought a ticket, and enjoy your time in your homes with your enormous stockpiles of toilet paper and pasta. The show must go on! Even if thats in 2021...

21.01.2022 Yes, its that time of year again! For more information, goto: www.oldnick.com.au

14.01.2022 WE WANT YOU! The Old Nick Uni Revue is in its 73rd year and we are calling for directors. The Uni Revue is more or less a comedy revue that tries to push the envelope, as well as covering state, national and international politics and news in parody and satire. Every year the Old Nick Company appoints a director but directing a Revue is a very broad role. Youre essentially doing a show from scratch you need to organise writing, form a production team, oversee budgeting, ...and craft the show itself. That said youre not on your own, and Old Nicks committee and membership have a broad experience and can help with many aspects of production. We can help you form a production team, connect you with writers, and assist with our established marketing and casting practices. An application for Revue should outline who you are, what you intend to do (or what your guiding principles are), and what experience you have. Better yet, if you have an idea of who might be involved in your production team, writing team, etc, or you have an idea for the show, include it. Anything submitted to committee will be kept from any other potential applicants even ones who are members of the committee, so there should be no fears about having ideas stolen or recycled. Applicants are required to complete an application form that is available by emailing Mark Holmes our Productions Coordinator at [email protected]. Any questions you have can be included in your email, or give Mark a call on 0447 081 525 and he will be able to assist you. The 2020 season of Uni Revue will open in Hobart the week of Monday 4th May and close on Saturday 23rd May. The Launceston run will be the week of Monday 25th May and close on Saturday 30th May. Rehearsals, auditions and production meetings will be coordinated by the Director and their production team. We look forward to reading your ideas!

13.01.2022 Come along to our AGM, tomorrow at 3PM!
