How can you possibly follow a booked-out theatre success? You take off again in an intriguing, very different direction!
The Maleny Players’ 2023 exploratory ensemble called Club 88 (which actually included three 88-year-olds) has followed two successful productions, Stages and Changes, by changing its name—and its interstellar direction.
A collaboration of new talent and Club 88 performers gathered in July in the Maleny Playhouse for the first time under the title Planet 9.
“Planet 9, the unexplored large planet astronomers have located on the other side of our Sun, is the perfect metaphor for unlimited dramatic expression,” said organiser Jill Morris.
“The actors, writers and musicians involved are intelligent and curious, interested in finding satisfying entertainment by locating and expressing the drama in our own lives on our own planet.”
Planet 9 will meet again from 10am–12noon on Thursday, August 7, in the Playhouse Theatre, Maleny Showgrounds. New curious explorers are most welcome!
