SPAT is back!

After a year’s hiatus on performances, SPAT is back in style, with a packed program of music and theatre that will warm the cockles of your heart this winter.

New SPAT president Kelly-Maree Michael says: “We are back with a bang and a big reason to celebrate! The SPAT/CWA Committee have done a tremendous job with the hall renovations, most notably the fabulous new deck, amidst challenges including Covid, complex planning regulations and rising material costs. The results are simply stunning and will serve the Stanwell Park community for years to come.”

First up is our annual Singers Show, A Seasonal Soirée, a mix of old and new, serious and silly, up-beat and meditative music. In other words: something for everyone, including the chance to sing along! Instead of the traditional sit-down dinner, this year we’ll present the program first and serve a hearty supper afterwards, with warming mulled wine throughout. Join us at the CWA Hall on 2, 8 & 9 July at 7:30pm. Tickets are $25 and are available now at www.spat.org.au.

SPAT will be introducing the newly refurbished CWA Hall to the community with Deck the Hall: A festival of one-act plays. From 4pm on Sunday, 21 August we will host local makers, musicians and food stalls at the hall – picture German sausages with mulled wine or hot chocolate while browsing locally made wares and listening to busker-style acoustic music. From 7pm lucky ticket-holders will sit down for an evening of two short plays – comedy Dotty’s Inheritance, and Fate’s Thread, a farcical murder/mystery ghost story. Further performances of the plays will follow on 26, 27, 28 August, follow SPAT on Facebook and Instagram @stanwellparkartstheatre so you don’t miss out!

Keep an eye on our socials for notices about panto auditions coming up at the end of August.
