Can I just confirm....

The $180 is for all 4 workshops? Just want to check as it's not entirely clear when you actually book and pay for your 'ticket' online. Thanks!

Hi Musical Mum, It is

Hi Musical Mum, It is indeed $180 for all four workshops - it's just an idiosyncracy of Deckchair's booking system. Hope to see you at the workshops on Sunday!

I'll be there

Really looking forward to it! :)

Air Con

Haven't been to Deck Chair Theatre before. Does it have air con? Only asking because it's going to be a lovely 42 on Sunday and I don't want to pass out from the heat. Quite happy to pass out from excitement and enjoyment, but not heat. Looking forward to seeing you there on Sunday.

That's why I wasn't keen on

That's why I wasn't keen on going, to be honest.

Yikes, no air con?

That's surprising for a professional theatre venue. Best take plenty of water then....
