Petershambles

Petershambles A house-based venue for live performance in the heart of the Inner West. PeTeRsHaMbLeS brings live theatre to your backyard. Well, our backyard. But you can come.

Set in the comfortable home of Brett & Dave from Sydney theatre collective The Mighty Gang Gang (and also Pam), Petershambles is dedicated to bringing unique, varied and exciting modes of performance to the people of the Inner West. Our flagship performance night, LAPTOP ELF, occurs once a month, with ten performers bringing their original, unpolished material to the stage for your delectation and

delight. In the future, we hope to build a season of live works focusing on new Australian writing and theatremaking. Entry is by donation at the door!

From Malcolm:

Hi Friends!

Team MESS are working on a new project for the upcoming Tiny Stadiums Festival at PACT in Erskinville. It’s called Trojans and it takes the form of a television series set in a bar with the same name. It is inspired by our reading about Mexican soap operas. We loved the idea that these shows are shot in such an incredibly fast rhythm, because of audience enthusiasm and tight budgets, that the actors don’t even get the chance to sight their script in advance of shooting, and instead they enact live and directly when shooting in accordance to instructions through radio receivers in their ears. They essentially become participants in a game of the creative’s design.

We have different writers writing each self-contained episode and are looking for performers to act in the work. So I write now on behalf of the Team to see if any of you guys out there might be interested in volunteering for a night? Maybe?...

It would involve an hour call before the show, arriving at about 5:45pm for a 6:00pm run through of the technology, set up and machinations of the work, with the show itself starting at 7:00pm and running for an hour. Unfortunately the project budget is incredibly tight and we can’t offer any financial remuneration, but can take you out for drinks and hospitality afterwards as thanks for joining in.

Show dates are November 14th, 15th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, and writers across the season include Annaliese Constable, Zoe Coombs Marr, Jackson Davis, Jessica Bellamy, Nick Sun.

If anyone might be free and keen to join in then please let us know, and advise a preferred date. We would only need you for one night, and we are after 2 - 4 performers per night.

Look forward to hopefully hearing back from some of you. All good whatever the case, of course…

Bests to all,

Malcolm. x
