Mount Barker's Acting Out Troupe comprises of six women who love having fun and bringing joy to others.
They had their debut performance Senior Moments: Poems, Plays and Monologues at the Mount Barker library on November 21, 2023.
The troupe performed seven separate acts which showcased their many talents.
A performance of Pam Ayres' poem The Dinner Party drew many laughs as did Custard Chaos - a piece where too many helpful cooks were creating a recipe for a very merry Christmas indeed!
Members Only featured a mere mortal trying to get into heaven only to be thwarted by that common issue of a forgotten username and password to login.
In between the humour came thoughtful reflections in Life and Emma, while a very poignant and personal memory was shared in Big Sister.
An encore performance will be held on Tuesday, December 12 at 6.30pm at 35 Gawler Street, Mount Barker. Tickets cost $5 and can be bought here.
Acting Out Troupe is a non-profit group and operates as a program under the auspices of the Mount Barker Community Centre. They aim to deliver feel-good experiences and social connection in the community by providing entertainment for various audiences.
