The Castle. A Bonnie Doon Pub Rock Musical! After the success of re-writing the Life of Brian for the stage, two years ago, MMuDS has decided to have a go at the Australian comedy classic, "The Castle". Set in Bonnie Doon, the story will include all your favourite characters and well known quotes from the original, but with a sequel story line involving the next generation of Kerrigans and their children. The nextgen family move to live under the power-lines at Bonnie Doon, but run into the same "compulsory acquisition" court battles as their parents, with lots of surprises along the way, and a twist in the tail at the end. The actors will be backed by a Pub Rock Band led by Rolf Koren. Home grown videos will also be a feature of this show..
Production Crew will be divided into a number of sections under the direction of a co-ordinator. The co-ordinators are: Director/Writer: Will Twycross Producer/Production co-ordinator: Karen Pirie Stage Manager: Camille Murphy Set Construction: Ian Keys Lighting Operator: Sound Operator: Musical Director: Rolf Koren Video Production: Roger Nolan Image Co-ordinator, Output and SFX: Milton Taylor Backstage and Makeup: Joy Koren Costumes: Laurel Lawrie Children: Shannen Andrews: (Assistant Director) Front of House: Suzie Roberts, Erica Morgan Props: Margie Cummins
Performances: Planned for October 2022
Those still available from the original cast will retain their roles, but we expect a number of leading and supporting roles will need to be re-cast due to changes in timing and commitments. Nearer the time, we will advertise the exact details here, on our website, and on our facebook page. This time, we are not dreaming! The show will happen in October 2022 and rehearsals will begin in June 2022. Auditions in March 2022. Stay tuned here or read about it by following the MMuDS FB page
