Short Sweet+Song 08
Short Sweet+Song is back!
The all singing and sometimes dancing version of the world’s biggest short play festival is at the Seymour Centre for a strictly limited season from 25 March.
Live, fresh and original works selected from around the world and across Australia combine in an evening of drama, comedy and romance. With music styles from rock to opera, broadway to jazz, there is something for everyone in these self contained 10 minute musical gems.
With a creative team led by composer/lyricist/writer Michael Huxley and musical supervisor Bev Kennedy, these works are performed by some of the best new and established music theatre performers including Marika Aubrey, Meagan Caratti, Nathan Carter, Sarah Croser, Brent Dolahenty, Harriet Dyer, Brad Dylan, Raine Francis, Sara Grenfell, Fabian Hartwell, Julie Haseler, Vincent Hooper, Brendan Irving, Anita Margiotta, Simon Brook McLachlan, James Millar, Tom Morley, Sally Osmond, Caleb Rixon, Amy Robertson, Taryn Ryan, Garry Scale, Catherine Shepherd, Peter Silver, Aaron Taylor, Rachael Thompson, Andrew Threlfall, Simon Ward and Chris Williams.*
Directors include: Margi De Ferranti, Peta Downes, Louise Fischer, Adam Gelin, Mary-Anne Gifford, Neil Gooding, Katie Gompertz, James Lee, Jane Miskovic, Maarten Mourik and Peter Ross
In addition to the Festival, four works will be performed as part of a WILDCARD series on Saturday afternoons. These will be followed by a Q and A with the writers and the creative teams to enable audiences to give feedback and help shape the work. This feed back may then be used in developing the piece.
