Mission Impossible: Keeping a Secret In the Industry

 

Grab a coffee, I have a secret to tell you! Well actually, I’m not allowed..

The past few weeks have been so exciting. I just returned from Melbourne where I had the pleasure of seeing some amazing theatre, taking great dance classes, catching up with some of my best friends and even got to do a few auditions as a bonus! But the whole time, I was carrying a deep, dark secret…Literally.

I had the script of the Squabbalogic ‘Mystery Musical’ in my bag.

Today was our first day of rehearsal. So Halfway! The show is such a treat, maybe you’ve heard of it? It’s called –

Woah, that was close! Almost blurted it out. That would have ruined the mystery of the ‘Mystery Musical’. Here are a few things I CAN tell you about it:

  1. The cast is incredible. I am absolutely spoilt to be working with the stunning (and tall- yay!) Debora Krizak, and my childhood idol from playschool, Simon Burke. They are joined by an equally incredible cast, including my 3rd- year buddy from WAAPA! What are the chances!
  2. Along with a very clever (and efficient) production team, Dean Vince and Hayden Baltrop are the absolute best, and have already got us through a stumble of Act 1!
  3. If rehearsals are hinting at anything,  it’s that this show is going to be an absolute delight for both  actors and audience members.

Here are a few picture clues, any ideas?

 

Want to solve the mystery? Come along tonight!  Not only will you be thoroughly entertained while the secret show is revealed, you’ll be supporting the under-funded independent sector. So, win win!

Come and have a drink and a chat in person! Get your tickets here.
