FOR ten years, the Wyz Wimmin & Friends Theatre Company has been bringing wholly original productions to audiences on the Mid North Coast.

Right now, they are rehearsing the retrospective ‘Play it Again’, which opens at Bowraville Theatre on Sunday 1 March at 2.00pm, before going on tour.

“Giving new life to characters that audiences have loved is magic,” said the Company’s Carrolline Rhodes.

“They are the same, yet different.”

One thing remains constant however: the Wyz Wimmin & Friends’ characters continue to connect deeply with audiences.

Among those who will be on stage for ‘Play it Again’ is ‘Daphne’, who audiences first met in 2019.

Daph’s story revolves around her favourite club, poker machines and Eddie, her husband of fifty years.

“Daph is joined by Jude who likes a dry white a little too much, Jean-Paul whose journey stretches from England to Australia then back to France, and then there’s empty nester Wilma whose travel plans come to a sudden halt,” Carrolline said.

“With ten characters representing ten years, it is a great line up.”

‘Play it Again’ has adult themes and language and is not suitable for children.

Tickets are $25 plus a small booking fee.
