Kucom Theatre will shortly be holding auditions for Summer Shorts, a season of one-act plays showcasing in November 2025.
Summer Shorts will feature three short comedies, including a reprise of Last Tango in Little Grimley, by David Tristram, which won Kucom two major awards at last year’s North Queensland Festival of One-Act Plays in Townsville: Best Director and Best Play.
The program also includes: Bloody Actors, by Archie Wilson. A group of retired actors living in a nursing home try to get along but are hampered by events from their past careers. The answer seems to lie in preparing and performing a play for the other residents. Cast required: 4 females, 2 males.
Ashes to Dust, by Yvette Wall: on the day that her late father’s ashes are due to be scattered, his daughter arrives at the family home to find her mother with another man – and clearly enjoying herself far more than she ought to. Cast required: 2 females, 2 males.
