Two Tonne Budgie presents, "CYCLONE"the serial that will blow you away!

Yes, due to popular demand, Cyclone, the four part fringe theatre soap opera, will be doing all four episodes back to back this Sunday the 17th of February @4pm

So if you weren't in on the ground floor and want to see theatre which has been described as a cross between Monty Python and Home and Away then make sure your there!

And you may want to book on 9227 7005 as seats are limited. (Tickets $10)

If you've seen Episodes one to three then this Friday@10:30 is your only chance to see Episode 4 with the fight scene to end all fight scenes in!

Now here's some drivel about what it's all about
"CYCLONE " is a character driven serial that would be far too expensive for local TV! But with the wonderful constraints of theatre, and some wonderful local talent, and even more wonderful suspension of disbelief, we bring to the Fringe a glimpse into the wonderful, and not quite so wonderful lives of an array of amazing, interesting, foreign and diabolical people who frequent the world of "CYCLONE ".

At the core of the serial are the wannabe Romeo and Juliet couple, Susannah and Christian. She, a very young but not quite so innocent University student from a highly conservative background. He an adventurous, smooth talking, but perhaps not in English, backpacker with a background in the culinary arts. Did I mention that heÂ’s German and sheÂ’s Jewish? And that her Grandmother doesnÂ’t like him. And that he has a thing about chickens? Which is different from the thing that she has about chickens? And thatÂ’s just Susannah and Christian. Wait till you meet some of the other weirdos that float in the milk of this serial. ThereÂ’s David, SusannahÂ’s loverÂ…I did say she was not quite so innocent, who only wants to be with her, and with some of her more intimate apparel. Ruth, SusannahÂ’s evil Grandmother. Kevin, her spineless father. Bob and Linda, the Karaoke hosts from hell and even Max, the magnificent, morphing wonder dog-boy! Plus a host of other interesting guest roles.

Bookings :- 9227 7005
