So What's Happening??

We're constantly being asked - what do you get for the $50 entry fee, so I thought that I'd put on a brief of the itinery, and believe me - there's way more - but if we told you, we'd have to kill you - so here's what we can pass on! All food and soft drinks are included in the ticket price - we will have a cash bar - and it will be bloody awesome! And most impotrantly - THE ENTIRE TICKET MONEY WILL BE GOING TO THE TRUST.....

1.    6.30pm - Arrival.
2.    Canapés & cocktails will be served as the entrance of the Plaza is turned into a piano bar, with baby grand & Paul Bowers-Mason playing the piano.
3.    Guests are then taken trough to the main body of the theatre where they are shown a short film (no more than 5 minutes) that we are currently making with local girl Annette (in her 30's) in the later stages of secondary bone cancer as a result of breast cancer.
