Time for tea, scones and a laugh
YOUR favourite ladies from the Queensland Country Women's Association will be hosting a new theatrical production “More than Tea and Scones” to celebrate 100 years of the iconic organisation.
Written by award winning Cairns playwright Angela Murphy of Veranda Theatre, the show could be set in any CWA hall.
“I travelled over 2200km, visited 22 Country Women’s Association (CWA) halls across North Queensland and interviewed over 70 women,” said Ms Murphy.
Their stories have been woven together to create a funny and insightful piece of theatre that will appeal to anyone who cares about their community.
“It’s an eye-opening revelation into what the women in the CWA do. It will surprise and amaze you,” she said.
“The show is heartfelt, honest and at times hilarious. It’s the QCWA in their centennial year and it’s coming to a hall near you!”
Ms Murphy’s show will kick off at the Tolga Hall on 28 May from 2pm with tickets available via www.trybooking.com/CGYGT
Mareeba CWA will host the play on 4 June from 3.00pm with tickets available at www.trybooking.com/CGYHR
The Millaa Millaa CWA Hall show will be the last of the tour on 11 June from 2.00pm with tickets available via www.trybooking.com/CGYHT
