Online Shows Still A Great Option

4 September 2022

Schools might choose to book an online show because

1. They are out of a main city or town

2. They don't have many students

3. Cost might be a factor - online shows are usually cheaper

4. The show they're interested in doesn't tour to their state.

This last was the reason a Sydney school, Hornsby North PS, booked Tim Ellis' A Visit to the Laneway Theatre'. The live shows are only available in Victoria.

This is what they said about it

"Our school is based in Sydney and we were able to enjoy a Zoom presentation by Tim Ellis. The students were totally engaged throughout the whole show and loved the way they were shown a few of the magic trick reveals. Would thoroughly recommend this incursion to any school. Tim was an excellent communicator as far as bookings were concerned and provided an extra bonus of link to some of the tricks, so that they can be shared at home."

Online shows on SFS are designated by a # at the start of their title.

This is the final weekend of the WinterWild Festival in Apollo Bay.

Usually an annual festival, of course it was cancelled in 2020, then in 2021, it was sold out but was cancelled a week before it started. This year - fingers crossed. They've got the most incredible events. 

Chookas to them!

If you haven't booked a show for your students - hurry. One option that would most likely work at this late stage is to go for an online option.

NAIDOC Week Ends

10 July 2022

What a pity NAIDOC Week fell in the school holidays in some states this year. It's an important one for schools to celebrate and investigate, but it makes it hard when it's not in school term time.
