  • What do the Piggywig and the Turkey on the Hill have in common?

Adapted by Tim Bray from Edward Lear's much loved poem this is a charming quirky story that fills in all the gaps behind the cutest love story ever written.

The Near Sighted Knight And The Far Sighted Dragon

17/1/2013

0 Comments

 
By Eleanor and Ray Harder
Directed by Susan Cameron and Garry Thomas

​Season: 17 - 27 January 2013

A snappy, action-filled fairy tale.  Despite his extreme near-sightedness, an unemployed knight charges everything in his path, hoping to become a hero so he can get a job.

He tries to convince a career-minded princess she needs rescuing. But she's busy working on a mathematical formula to rescue her father, the king, imprisoned by a power-hungry duchess.

The knight charges forward, uninvited, to rescue the king, then he becomes sidetracked by an opportunity to fight a dragon.

The non-violent, rather mellow dragon and the exasperated princess subdue the knight and then the trio follow the princess' plan to rescue the king.

Cast:

Near-Sighted Knight - Louisa Stewart
Young, unemployed knight, near sighted, acts without thinking.

Far-Sighted Dragon - Carole Anderson
Old, semi-retired, far-sighted, friendly and mellow.

Princess - Whitney Greene
Young and stroppy. Meticulous planner. Uses mathematical formulas to solve all problems.

King - Colin McKinney
Kindly but likes the idea of being treated as the King.

Duchess - Katrina Forrester
Scheming to take over the kingdom.

Captain of the Guards - Roderick Turner
The Duchess’ right hand man. A bit of a bumbler.

Wilfred - Barry Tomkinson
Duchess’ son. Lazy and generally bored.

Guards - Melanie Mellor, Genna-Kate Ryan

The Emperor's New Clothes

By Jeanine Henry and Meg Davenport
Dir: Rebecca Taylor and Garry Thomas

Season:  19 to 29 January 2012

Elmwood Players’ Children’s Theatre returns with a delightful, amusing re-telling of the Hans Christian Andersen story. The vain and childish Emperor is duped by two schemers who convince him they can make him a unique suit of clothes that is not only beautiful, but magical - it can only be seen by those who are honest.

Afraid he won't be able to see the cloth himself, the Emperor enlists the aid of his two ministers, who complicate matters when they are afraid to admit they cannot see it.

Cast:
Emperor - Colin McKinney
Timely - Sarah Greaves
Puckering - Katie Brown
Sly - Carole Anderson
Dim - Sophie Rea
