Tony Galati | The Musical

This a story inspired by the true story of Tony Galati - the retailer, farmer and immigrant who won the hearts of West Australians by fighting against corporate overlords so that every family could have access to healthy vegetables. It’s a love letter to WA, an inspirational story of fighting for fairness and family, and catchy to boot.

The story begins in Sicily where we meet Tony’s father, Francesco. Francesco moves to busy 1960's Perth looking for a better life for his family. He opens a vegetable market stand, and Tony watches it get shut down by the nefarious Potato Corp - a draconian board that governs what’s fit for sale. This moment shapes Tony’s life, and we see him, and Perth grow up. Undeterred, Tony slowly builds up his business but the prevailing attitude the Corp has to veggies - those that don’t fit in must be tossed - mirrors his own inner struggle: he’s a stranger in a strange
land. Will he ever fit in?

GALATI is for the underdogs. You say potato... I say REVOLUTION!

TONY GALATI THE MUSICAL is a love letter to the hard-working WA magnate who took on the fat cats, launched a supermarket chain, became an internet meme, and appeared on Sunrise – with nothing but tenacity, a blue singlet, and a love for the working families of Perth.

Doors open at 6pm.
Suitable all ages, the performance starts at 7pm sharp for 70 minutes without interval.
Tickets are available in person at the Civic Centre and at the Library or ONLINE.

Seniors' Concert 2022 | Golden Age Girls

The City of Greater Geraldton Seniors' Committee and Queens Park Theatre are delighted to open SENIORS' WEEK 2022 with a fabulous concert

GOLDEN AGE GIRLS 💃

These driven, eccentric, hilariously dramatic ladies will steal your hearts through song, then make you laugh out loud and gasp with scandalous joy. 😄

Despite their modern upbringing, sopranos Ruth and Irene have always craved the glamorous life that accompanied the Golden Age of Broadway. Their competitive drive leads them to entertain the only guaranteed market they can find: funeral guests !! 😂
When it comes time for their reluctant daughters to take over the funeral extravaganza business, Ruth and Irene’s deadly, unquenchable thirst for fame burns brighter than ever.

The Seniors' Concert will start at 10am with a very special morning tea and chatting with friends in the foyer.
The performance will start at 11am sharp and is 60 minutes long, without interval.
Tickets are available in person at the Civic Centre, and at the Library and ONLINE.
All tickets $25

QPT Club Seniors' Film 2022 | THE DUKE

The Friends of Queens Park Theatre are delighted to present the film THE DUKE as a prelude to Seniors' Week 2022

Jim Broadbent & Helen Mirren, anyone ?

THE DUKE is a 2021 Comedy drama from the UK, rated M, 1 hour and 36 minutes long, in English, no subtitles.
In 1961, Kempton Bunton, a 60-year old taxi driver, stole Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London. It was the first (and remains the only) theft in the Gallery's history. Kempton sent ransom notes saying that he would return the painting on condition that the government invested more in care for the elderly -- he had long campaigned for pensioners to receive free television. What happened next became the stuff of legend.

A light supper is served in the QPT foyer at 5:30pm.
The film screens INSIDE the QPT auditorium at 6pm sharp.
All tickets are $20, everyone's welcome.
Seating is unreserved, so you may find your friends in the foyer and sit together for the film
