2006 SHOWS:
SPACES RUNNING OUT FAST!

We know you hear this sort of marketing hype often, but we really mean it. If you are from a school or theatre, we really don't have many places left for shows this year. Here's the deal: Couple of places left for Beauty and the Beast March-April. Cinderella is sold out, except maybe for an afternoon or morning here and there if we happen to be in your area, same deal for Sleeping Beauty. Hunchback, being at the end of the year, has about 10 days left to sell, and they will go over the next couple of weeks. Please call us NOW for dates, especially those schools who I know want to book but haven't gotten round to it yet.

2007 will be even tighter for dates, so please book all shows for 2007 now or on the day of your show. Also a reminder - in order to have an Alpha Show you must confirm with a booking deposit, please contact us if you haven't done this for a 2006 show yet as you may lose your date.

FEDERATION SQUARE
6 SHOWS OVER JANUARY!

Never-ending droves of people squashed into the BMW Edge Theatre and spilled out onto the Balconies and area at the back (standing room only!) at Federation Square over the 6 shows we had in January. Unprecedented, in a word. Well done to the cast of the show, all of which were the most experienced Alpha performers we have.


Can you imagine this at your venue?

PLENTY RANGES THEATRE

Alpha also performed at Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre for the first time in January. We will be back there 3 more times this year with our other shows - please support this awesome theatre by coming and experiencing the excitement and fun that are Alpha Shows!

Cinderella, 27th June.
Sleeping Beauty, 29th September.
Hunchback of Notre Dame, 28th October.

Call (03) 9217 2317 for bookings or http://www.pracc.com.au for more details.

UPDATED CURRICULUM DISCUSSION PAGE
We welcome your input as educators

The page is now essentially a paper on our responsibilities as educators and how and why Alpha Shows go beyond the old concepts of Theatre-in-Education. It also helps turn an often well-maintained opinion of some schools who struggle to justify inviting Alpha to their school based on fears and misinterpretations that the shows aren't relevant to the curriculum.
