10 minutes of fame

As opening night approaches this Thursday, audiences are getting a glimpse of the creative energy fueling  10 Minutes of Fame at the Drill Hall Theatre in Mullumbimby.

Renowned movement director Philip Channells has been hard at work with the cast, choreographing an intense fight sequence that promises to captivate. Meanwhile, rising choreographer Rees Laird has crafted a show-stopping musical finale that will leave audiences tapping their feet.

Playwright Michael Sharmon assures this fast-paced dramedy has something for everyone. With action heroes, a hilarious song-and-dance number, and a sharp exploration of fame’s double-edged sword, the play navigates the chaos of a comic convention during a global pandemic.

Blending humour, drama, and unexpected twists, 10 Minutes of Fame is more than just a performance, it’s a theatrical journey.

Don’t miss it! The show runs from December 5 to 15, Thursdays to Saturdays at 7.30pm and Sundays at 5pm. Book now at www.drillhalltheatre.org.au.
