Theatre shows for 20th anniversary

Gosford Council will mark 20 years of its theatre in Gosford with 14 professional productions at the Peninsula Theatre to help celebrate the occasion.

Council's arts & culture unit manager Ms Debra Schleger stated that the "2008 season provides the best shows for all family members that Australian theatre has to offer - more music, more comedy, more drama and wonderful children's productions".

"We should all be proud of the contribution that live theatre has made to our vibrant local and regional culture," she said.

"The expansive program of shows at both theatres is a reflection of the ever-increasing creative capacity of our community and its artists."

Shows for next year will include Heroes, Gadgets, Shorter & Sweeter, Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow, The Arrival, As You Like It, Possum Magic The Musical, Times of My Life, Shakespeare's R&J, Emily Loves to Bounce, The Carpenters from Kempsey, Codgers and Deep Blue.

Council's theatre theme for next year will be "Immerse Yourself in New Flavours of Live Entertainment".
