HELP 🙏🙏🙏

CADS need a Christmas miracle!
We have almost finished casting our end of year production, an original musical titled Jingle $ells, but we have one character vacant ... and it's the main role 😱😱😱
What do we want:
A male aged 40 to 50 years old that can sing and act.
When do we want it:
Now ... and until our production hits the stage in November.

This character is a father of two, a lawyer, recently widowed and questions his own beliefs as he takes on the villain of the story. Singing original songs and traditional Christmas carols, this is a wholesome role and we need your help to fill it.

Please DM us if you are interested or know of someone that might be. We don't want to cancel Christmas 🙏🤞🤗

CADS would like to wish our lovely President Sheridan Riles a great big happy birthday for today!
Thank you for all you do for us and our community! Have a great day, if you see Sheridan around town today, flip the script and sing to her 👨‍🎤👩‍🎤🧑‍🎤

Tonight CADS had the pleasure of attending the final tech and dress rehearsal of Vox Populi at GPAC.
Our friends at Mulwaree Amateur Dramatics have put together a show you don't want to miss. Curtains open tomorrow night for four shows only. Jump online and secure your tickets now or get them in person at the door.
This is a very powerful script, absolutely brought to life by the incredibly talented cast. They will have you on the edge of your seat, leaning forward, hanging on their every word, and at times holding your breath. The voice of the people is one you'll want to see for yourself and not hear about second hand and regret a missed opportunity.
Congratulations to all cast and crew in getting this one across the line. Chookas from CADS 🙌🙌🙌
