Tix $10 either show, or $15 both, on the door
Once upon a time, seven young women with backgrounds in comedy, musicals and impro came to know and love those meek and male-dependent icons, the Disney Princesses. Now, through darkly satirical, fast-paced sketches and polished song and dance, they explore old conventions and their nostalgia for childhood heroines.
Princess Cabaret is a satire with a very girly subject: Disney princesses. Performed by seven girls, it contains high‐level coarse language and adult themes. It also includes musical parodies, wicked humour and exploding stereotypes.
Princess Cabaret began life as part of Sydney University’s Women’s Revue. The show stuck it to those men, and women, who’ve always thought that a princess was nothing without her prince!

Lend them your BLANK and they’ll sing you a song. In fact, they’ll sing you a whole musical – BLANK the Musical – with all the melody, harmony, fun and feeling of a regular stage musical – sans script and score. They’re singin’ on the edge!
Improvised comedy gets a song and dance routine by eight of Sydney’s hottest improv comedians. Just inspire them with your BLANK at the start, then sit back and enjoy as your BLANK unfolds.
The talented cast combines the spontaneity and hilarity audiences love from improvised comedy shows such as Theatresports®, or TV favourites Thank God You’re Here and Whose Line is it Anyway?, with the all-singing, all-dancing pizzazz of a Broadway musical.
Starring: Tim Judge, Pete Lead, Brydie Lee-Kennedy, Adam Yardley and special guests with Sophie Miller on keys.

Goldilocks, the most popular and beautiful girl in all of Fairyfail, has gone missing! The only person who can find her is Brownilocks, her lesser known little sister. As Brownilocks sets off, she meets some Fairyfail residents- the Big Bad Wolf, Rumpelstiltskin and more – and discovers that they don’t quite live up to their reputations…
This is an original script subverting well-known fairytales. Brownilocks is the perennial underdog, and will demonstrate to children that heroes can appear in unlikely forms. It is cheeky and high energy, featuring 5 performers, a live musical score and a lot of audience interaction.
