Miranda Harcourt's New Show at The OoH

Once in a blue moon a show raises your spirits with the magic of real life. Much loved actress Miranda Harcourt's BIOGRAPHY OF MY SKIN has you in tears one minute and laughing-out-loud the next.
Set against an 80s and 90s soundtrack - and a backdrop of traffic violations, the '81 Springbok tour, hand-made skin lotion, GLOSS, Princess Di and true crime - BIOGRAPHY traces the role of a lifetime through four decades we'll never forget.
Written by husband Stuart McKenzie, BIOGRAPHY is a comedy about love, marriage and growing up. What starts as a solo show is soon anything but, as people from Miranda's life pop up unexpectedly to claim their side of the story.
From the team who brought you kiwi classic FLOWERS FROM MY MOTHER'S GARDEN, this new popular and critical triumph is outstanding contemporary theatre with a big heart. If you've been in love or come from a family, BIOGRAPHY is a must-see.

"It is funny, insightful, shocking, poignant, extraordinarily personal and generous. A gift. Not to be missed."
-John Smythe, Theatreview

The Gondoliers with The Southern Sinfonia

THE GONDOLIERS

The Really Authentic Gilbert and Sullivan Performance Trust (RAGSPT) is presenting the entire G&S repertoire in chronological order over the 11-year period 2002-2012. In November, the eleventh opera, The Gondoliers, is scheduled for performance with an exciting cast, both in Dunedin and – exceptionally - in Oamaru as well.

This joyously sunny work, set in Venice, satirises republican egalitarianism and tells the strange and romantic story of two sturdy Republicans called upon jointly to assume the responsibilities of Monarchy. But which gondolier is really the king? And which boy is married to which girl? A comic Spanish Ducal family, the Plaza-Toros, and a mournful Grand Inquisitor do everything they can to complicate the plot.

In The Gondoliers there is a greater proportion of music to dialogue than in most of the other Savoy operas. Both author and composer spent more time working on this opera than they had on their earlier works and they paid rare tributes to one other's work after the premiere. A case of author and composer acting, for once, "in perfect unity".

A strong cast of some of Dunedin's finest performers together with a couple of guest principals from further afield will bring The Gondoliers to life under the direction of English professional stage director, Alan Spencer, back for his fourth production for the RAGSPT.

Trust website: www.gns-dunedin.org.nz

The Gondoliers will be staged at the Oamaru Opera House on 13 November at 2.30pm and 7.30pm. Bookings: Oamaru Opera House (03) 433 0770 or 0800 4 TICKET or 0800 224 224. Website bookings: www.ticketdirect.co.nz. Tickets: Adults $47.50, Seniors (65+) and groups of 10 or more $42.50, Students and children still at school $22.50. Booking fees apply.
