🌟 GLADYS: A MUSICAL AFFAIR 🌟
📆 Saturday 18 April 2026
⏰ 7.30pm
🎟 Call the Box Office on (02) 6393 8111 or visit https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=OCTGLAD26

The team behind the satirical "Gladys" videos during Covid present a new musical comedy about Gladys Berejikian, "the woman who saved Australia" but couldn't save herself.

A crack team of four multi-instrumentalists and actors takes you through the early life of Ms Perfect, from her flawless leadership through two disasters, until her biggest disaster: Dodgy Daryl from Wagga Wagga.

With music and lyrics by ABC Radio's Nick Rheinberger (formerly of Dubbo High), Tia Wilson stars as Gladys in several colourful blazers. It's got big rock numbers, epic ballads, Armenian matchmaking, tap dancing and even more musical press conferences.

"With its ironic title, its clever narrative, a score blending diverse genres of music, and featuring good musicianship, this show was a clear winner." - David Kary, Sydney Arts Guide

“Political satire at its finest. A rollicking ride through Covid and the ICAC inquiry.” - Kelly Burke, The Guardian

“Marrying comedy and music…and a whole shooting range of nuance” - Brian Kelly, The Illawarra Flame

A scurrilous musical comedy about the alleged life of Gladys Berejiklian and "Dodgy" Daryl Maguire of Wagga Wagga. Touring NSW in 2025. Tickets here:https://...

Roll up, roll up! Or use a more conventional form of transport to get to the show. It’s entirely your choice. Unless you accidentally become trapped in a barrel*. Should that happen, then just find an incline and start rolling to see the one and only Ross Noble!

He is the Wizard of Waffle, The Rambler Royale, The Noodlers’ Noodler, and he’s back live on stage to tour a tornado of tangents.

What the show will be about is anybody’s guess, but that’s all part of the fun when you look inside his Cranium of Curiosities.

*We strongly advise trying not to get trapped in a barrel before or during the performance. Despite the expression “barrel of laughs,” it may impede your enjoyment of the show and potentially anger a cooper**.

**barrel maker. We are fairly certain the mascara mishap music maker Alice Cooper would be fine with it.

⏰ 7.30pm
🎟 Call the Box Office on (02) 6393 8111 or visit https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=OCTBANJO26

BANJO will sweep you into the ache and awe of pre-Federation Australia.

Through his hardships in 1880s rural Australia, his time as a writer and lawyer in the dusty, dirty streets of Sydney, and his bitter return to the country, BANJO follows Paterson’s dreams of a wilder Australia.

This unique musical delivers an “incredibly moving experience” (Former NSW Arts Minister, Ben Franklin).

The masterful weaving of Paterson’s verse, Coldplay’s music, and contemporary dance creates a raw and honest journey of love, connection, and sacrifice.

"It’s a cyclone; I hardly took a breath."

BANJO invites you to be transported back to a breathtaking land - Australia of old.

Take the dusty track to paradise…
