Page to Stage finale - you're invited

From soliloquys to scenes


The Page to Stage play reading finale is on Monday 18 November at 7pm, and everyone's invited to present a rehearsed reading in any style.

You can deliver a monologue, recite a poem, do a mime, create a scene - whatever you like. The script can be from a play, TV or film or any other source. Bring a plate to share. You're welcome to bring family or friends too, to enjoy the performances.

Please contact Trina at qltg.org.au or 0433691190 to register what you will be performing on the night, and we'll schedule you in the program.

****************************************

The QLTG committee has postponed the production of Jack and the Beanstalk, which was to be performed in the January school holidays.  

Unfortunately, we were not able to fill two roles. Our thanks to the enthusiastic performers who auditioned for the show.

Our panto will be rescheduled until later in 2025. 

In 2024, we have staged Sleeping Beauty, Nuncrackers the Christmas Musical, and had the very successful Sunday Showcase which brought together local performers and groups. 

We have had monthly Page to Stage play readings and theatre skills workshops running throughout the year, and presented regular Storytime sessions for families at Queenscliff Community Sunday Market.

We look forward to entertaining you in 2025. We'll have more news about coming productions in the New Year.
