The newly re-formed Bacchus Marsh Theatre Company is back with a vengeance, with a live music event for the whole family.
The company has been staging shows in Bacchus Marsh for 20-plus years, but hadn’t put on a show since before covid.
But with a new-name and look, the theatre company is putting on two performances of Enough: Just The Way You Are on October 27.
Show director Mai Pyin said the theme of the performance was about being fully yourself and acceptance in the family and the community.
The showcase the talents of local singers and musicians with music ranging from pop to rock and musical theatre.
“With soloists and a full vocal ensemble providing amazing harmonies, all backed by a live band of professional musicians and spectacular light show, this is an event not to be missed,” she said.
Pyin said the reaction to getting the theatre back up and going had been really good. She said it was something the local community needed.
“There was a lot of interest when I put out the call,” she said. “It’s a lot of the same people.
“It was evident to me at the first rehearsal when people were coming in and squealing ’how are you?’ that people wanted this.
“It’s not just an outlet for creativity, we’ve put together a performance network which the community has found.
The two shows will be held at 11am and 5pm on October 27 at the Impresario Theatre, Bacchus Marsh.
