HORROR SHOP SET FOR JUNE
Caloundra Chorale & Theatre Company will stage a three weeks June season of the perennial hit, The Little Shop of Horrors.
This will be the last hurrah in the current Wurtulla theatre because after the Horror Shop season the theatre will be totally gutted and rebuilt, to affford more comfort and ease of operation.
Under the local zoning they couldn't build upwards or outwards to improve facilities, so the only way to go was to look inwards and see what could be done. The architect has come up with a scheme which will give the tiny, intimate theatre,a brand new feel It should reopen well before year's end and a mini-musical from the Nunsense series will be the pipe-opener.

Moonlight & Magnolias Hot to Trot
Moonlight & Magnolias opens Friday May 27th for two weekends only at The Independent Theatre at Eumundi. The Coast's premiere season stars Brett Klease as movie producer, David O Selznick, Luke Lanham as film director, Victor Fleming and Wayne Clark as ace screenplay doctor, Ben Hecht, with Miss Poppenghul (Selznick's secretary) played by Marcie Essers. Directed by theatre legend, Carol Burns.
This comedy, based on fact, tells of the five days taken to re-write the screenplay of Gone With The Wind.
Three weeks into filming and Selznick has realised that his huge investment in Margaret Mitchell's novel, Gone With The Wind, is going down the gurgler fast, because the screenplay's not working. He fires director George Cukor, pulls in Victor Fleming (who's two weeks off finishing filming The Wizard of Oz) and calls in Ben Hecht to fix the scenario. But Hecht already is working on four other movies and can only give Selznick five days and the cruncher is Hecht hasn't read the book. And this is where this very funny play starts.
The season is 7.30pm Friday, Saturday, May 27th, 28th & Friday, Saturday June 3rd, 4th, plus Sunday 29th at 2pm and Sunday 5th at 5pm.
Coffee shop, Licensed bar an air conditioned auditorium, table seating.
