Long Range Weather Forecast: Rain for Her Majesty’s Theatre

Never I hear you all say!!!   But never say never.  BLOC Music Theatre is going all out in 2010 and is bringing one of the worlds’ favourite movie musicals to the stage in Ballarat.  SINGIN IN THE RAIN.  And yes, they are taking all steps to ensure that THIS weather prediction is correct.

 A fantastic, enthusiastic production team is already working hard and being lead by none other than Peter Tulloch as Director.  Excitement is building as everyone works to ensure that RAIN is finally brought to Ballarat, even though it may not be in the water catchment areas.

 No stone is being left unturned in the quest for precipitation  Many times in the past people have used dancing to bring rain and this works really well when you are staging a musical production.  To this end BLOC is very excited to have secured bright young choreographic rain dancer, Alister Smith to handle this area of the show.  Alister graduated from the University of Ballarat’s Arts Academy in 2004 and has since been both performing and choreographing in the greater Melbourne area, as well as teaching at a number of Ballarat Dance Schools. 

Alsiter and BLOC want to make sure that Singin in the Rain, does DANCE UP A STORM and so to prepare for the damp weather ahead, dance workshops will be taking place at BLOC Hall on Sunday 25th October.  So if you can dance, tap and would love to do it while getting wet head to www.blocmusictheatre.com.au or give us a call on 0407085858 between 7pm and 9pm Mon to Thurs. to find out more about the FREE workshop and auditions for Singin in the Rain.

 The next big question will be “Will it really rain on Her Majesty’s stage in May 2010?”  Come and be part of the fun and pray for rain!
