Star Struck the movie

The latest buzz is that we may have an opportunity for a private showing of Star Struck at Greater Union on a Sunday morning sometime in August. This is a special time for performers to see the great show everyone was raving about but you never saw 'cos you were in it. Or as a teacher you were always backstage looking after performers. There'll also be plenty of giveaways and commentry and maybe some special awards and lots of fun.....and it is a big screen.
Sure you could just sit at home alone boring family and friends everytime they visit with the DVD on your big TV but this is the magic of cinema. Huge screen, popcorn, fellow struckie-natics together again.
There only 360 seats so once the places are full that's it...... Info will be in the next newsletter. So check out your mail, talk to your teacher or check the website.
The date is yet to be confirmed but it will be a Sunday morn.

It's About Time

Well holidays came and one got out of the habit of updating but dare I say this is th attempt to relaunch the blog.
Hi all... the hols meant lots of things . Time to take stock. Time to get some more input so a trip to Melbourne and "Wicked" seemed to be a necessity.
and who's in it ...Ryan Sheppard....brilliant!
For those that don't know Ryan was with Star Struck back in 2000/1.
He was on the student production team in 2001 and actually choreographed Livin' the Vida Loca as well as singing. He was also a graduate of the NSW Talent Development project and a Spectacular performer. A former student of Erina HS he still loves the Star Struck experience and encourages everyone to have a go.
He plays Chistery in Wicked. The show is unbelieveable. He is incredible and i've suggested to Ryan that we encourage everyone to go.... so everyone go.
I'm still buzzing with ideas as I know everyone that goes will be.
