Redland Performing Arts Centre
Following their 2022 performances of Swan Lake, the Royal Czech Ballet returns to Australia with their presentation of the classic masterpiece, Sleeping Beauty. Sleeping Beauty follows the story of Princess Aurora. When the bad fairy Carabosse is not invited by the King to the Princess' christening, she casts a spell on the Princess that will mean she will die if pricked by a needle from the age of 16. The King tries to protect his daughter by banning all needles in the Kingdom, however Princess Aurora accidentally pricks her finger on her sixteenth birthday. 100 years later, a handsome prince stumbles upon the Sleeping Beauty, Princess Aurora, where she is awoken from her sleep and witchcraft is defeated.
The Royal Czech Ballet’s performances of Swan Lake in 2022 were acclaimed by theatre goers and critics alike and will feature international soloists Cristina Terentiev and Nikolay Nazarkevich.

Book of the month: Growing Grapes Might Be Fun by Dierdre Macken, An honest, very funny account of a couple's move to the country for a fresh start. Bursting with optimism and a can-do attitude, they're on a steep learning curve as they establish a vineyard and learn how things are done in the country. I imagined lounging on a veranda overlooking folds of hills striped with vines. I'd be clothed in linen and surrounded by friends. On the table would be tumblers of wine we'd picked in last year's harvest. Then we arrived at Cockatoo Hill and discovered a dump.
When Deirdre and her husband Roger decide to turn a sheep paddock into a vineyard, they are following the centuries-old tradition of family winemaking. Bit by bit they clean up the land, plant vines, protect them through storms and drought and turn a shack into a cottage. Slowly they start to read the landscape, appreciate the talents…

Death Cafe by the Bay – Virtual online
Community events
Curious? Interested? Got experiences or questions to share related to death & dying?
Then come join in this free organic discussion and BYO your cuppa and snack from one of the local cafes!
A Death Café is a safe and relaxed place to gather with people, often strangers, to discuss topics related to death and dying. The objective is to engage in interesting, thought-provoking and life-affirming conversations.
It is not a counselling or bereavement session, rather an opportunity “to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives”.
All are welcome to attend, but please register using Eventbrite link or by calling Jacqui on 0402 496 360, so a Zoom link can be emailed to you.

The Poems, Prayers and Promises of John Denver
Redland Performing Arts Centre
Re-live the voice of a generation as Darren Coggan respectfully honours John Denver and brings his legendary sing-along hits to the stage.
Multi-award-winning performer, Darren Coggan, returns to his country roots with The Poems, Prayers and Promises of John Denver, delivering the vocal authenticity of one of the most passionate performers of all time.
In a personal reflection, Darren respectfully honours the indelible voice behind songs that the whole world sang along with, such universal anthems as Take Me Home Country Roads, Rocky Mountain High, Annie's Song, Perhaps Love, Thank God I’m A Country Boy, Calypso, Leaving On A Jet Plane and many more.
It is often said that John Denver was to the ‘70s, what Sinatra was to the ‘40s, Elvis to the ‘50s and The Beatles to the ‘60s. With a voice full of Colorado sunshine, John Denver melted the borders between folk, pop and country music, offering a warm, welcoming vision of what the ‘70s could encompass.
