This month, contemporary performance ensemble, Elbow Room, gets together with Melbourne
Theatre Company to ask the question, have there ever been women in theatre? in We get it—a
witty look at gender anxiety.
Black Swan State Theatre Company reckons there has, with a new production of Noel Coward’s
greatest work, Blithe Spirit, a fantastical comedy about ‘astral bigamy’.
Described as the sorceress of percussion, Claire Edwardes weaves her magic with the
Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra.
And the cutest girl of them all, Babe, is celebrated with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra at
the film’s 20th anniversary.
That’s just a taste of what’s on offer in July—and there’s so much more!
Kind regards,
Bethwyn Serow Executive Director

been having an affair with Jerry, Robert's best friend. Betrayal
begins after the end of the affair, and pursues a gripping journey

devastating effect.
