To celebrate local theatre company WIT’s 10 year anniversary, the team are throwing an extravagant cabaret fundraiser.
Artistic Director Lansy Feng said the team are celebrating 10 years of storytelling, the collaboration of hundreds of artists, the running of kids drama classes, managing festivals and workshops for artists.
“We think it is a big thing for independent theatre companies to survive that long, producing shows on a strict budget over the years but we made it through,” she said.
“This is something we definitely want to celebrate and we are taking the 10 year mark as an opportunity to hold the cabaret fundraiser.”
With lots of raffle prizes donated from various organisations, Ms Feng said the night will be a lot of fun.
“We have hosted a fundraiser before and they went really well,” she said.
“We have great sponsors who donated raffle prizes like the Sun Theatre who donated tickets which will be fun for the participants.”
With the event hosted by a theatre company, there will be no shortage of entertainment on the night.
“On the night we will have a variety of different acts, we will have stand up comedy, some songs, musical theatre, a circus, and sketches and little acts,” she said.
“We have a lot of performers coming to help us as well as a nice host.
“Finger food will be provided as well as drinks on sale to celebrate.”
The event will be held on Friday, March 8 at the Bluestone Church Arts Space.
Entry is by donation only which will go towards supporting artists, creating productions and the continuation of running the kids drama classes and artists development workshops in 2024.
