The business is going through a hard time. Applespiel are not going to sugarcoat it for you. The stories are pretty scary, and some of them are true. Executive Stress/Corporate Retreat will get you fit enough to realise that, although it is an island we stand on, you have the power to turn the encroaching tide.
CHEER UP KID by Nat Randall
Cheer Up Kid is a tragi-comedy about childhood anxieties, parenting failures and disturbing matriarchal figures in film. Nat Randall’s one-woman show is a camp and glitzy collection true stories taken from the fragile lives of the brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, and the Carol Channings of this world.

What lies beneath (small soundworks for the sleepy) gives local residents the chance to rise and shine to an alarm made up of noises from steel manufacturing and computer dismantling factories recorded and created by Wollongong artists. www.whatliesbeneath.org
