Stirling Players presents the Australian Premiere of Hansard by Simon Woods, Directed by Sally Putnam.

This episode of For the Love of Theatre Podcast is Hosted by Annabel Whitford, Admin Officer for the University of Adelaide Theatre Guild & The Theatre Association of South Australia (T.A.S.A) Committee Member. This episode focuses solely on The Stirling Players' upcoming production of Hansard. Annabel interviews Director, Sally Putnam and some voiceover work has been provided by the Vice President of The Stirling Players, Bronwyn Chapple.

More About Our Guest Host

Annabel Whitford is a dedicated theatre enthusiast who has stage-managed several productions and serves as the Administrator of the Theatre Guild. An avid tap dancer, Annabel is part of the Dragonfly Dance performing company and believes in the importance of supporting the arts in all its forms. In her spare time, she co-hosts and edits the occasional podcast and has been fortunate enough to interview television writers and producers. Whether working behind the scenes, tapping out rhythms, or discussing TV shows, Annabel is committed to contributing to and promoting the arts community.

MORE ABOUT THE PLAY

Simon Woods’ first play Hansard, had an impressive debut and sold out season at The National Theatre UK in 2019.

Stirling Players will be presenting the Australian premiere under the direction of Sally Putnam and two of Adelaide’s most experienced actors, Anita Canala and Andrew Clark.

Hansard is an intimate and intense domestic drama about a marriage. It is also a comedy about politics, identity and the failings of the ruling class told with witty sarcasm and much passive aggression between a long-married couple of differing political views.

A prim Tory MP (Robin Hesketh) and his liberal, bohemian wife (Diana) quarrel and exchange witty barbs in their Cotswold cottage. The year is 1988 and Robin has arrived home from Westminster after voting for an important piece of legislation in Maggie Thatcher’s government. The subject of the new law and his role in helping it pass is the source of conflict and shared anguish and is integral to the deeply emotional and heart-rending reveal at the end.

The title, ‘Hansard’ refers to the transcripts of parliamentary debates in Britain and Commonwealth countries, including Australia. This play presents us with another verbatim record of a more personal and compelling debate.

NEW EPISODE: THE WATSONS

The Watsons

Written by Laura Wade

Directed by Matthew Chapman

The University of Adelaide Theatre Guild

SEASON: 1st - 10th August 2025

📍The Little Theatre

This episode of For the Love of Theatre Podcast is hosted by Annabel Whitford, featuring interviews with Director, Matthew Chapman, and cast members Lindy Lecornu (Lady Osborne), Genevieve Hudson (Miss Osborne) & Imogen Deller-Evans (Emma Watson), all from the upcoming production of The Watsons, written by Laura Wade, produced by The University of Adelaide Theatre Guild.

SUMMARY

The Watsons are in crisis. Cut off financially from her benefactor, the youngest, Emma, returns to her dying father and spinster sisters with the task of finding a husband - and finding one now. Matchmakers, match breakers, cads, stuffy clergymen and an overactive rumour mill all conspire as wedding bells ring in the distance and Emma eyes off a certain man…and that’s where we leave it.

See, Jane Austen never finished the story. 

So it’s up to Emma, with the help of modern-day Laura, a jaded playwright with a rapidly approaching deadline, to find her own happy ending…

And that’s where the fun really begins.

Laura Wade’s witty, bold adaptation of Jane Austen’s unfinished novel is a playful, provocative exploration of choice, control, and who really gets to write the ending.

‘Almost, Maine’

Produced by The Stirling Players

Written by John Cariani

Directed by Ben Proeve

SEASON: 11-19 July 2025

This episode of For the Love of Theatre Podcast features an interview with Director, Ben Proeve, Assistant Director & Music Composer, Toby Vincent & Cast Member, Harri Wolff. This discussion focuses on their production company and their latest show, Almost, Maine for The Stirling Players.

SUMMARY

Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place that’s so far north, it’s almost not in the United States. It’s almost in Canada. And it’s not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. So it almost doesn’t exist.

One cold, clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken.

But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend. Well, almost. A delightful midwinter night’s story of different scenes that take place in the same 15 minutes.

Cast: Oliver Medwell, Kodi Jackson, Harri Wolff, Sam Ewart, Annabel McGregor, Kaila Barton, Tim Stoeckel.

MUSIC

Original music for 'Almost, Maine' composed by April Strevens and Toby Vincent

This episode features one of the original compositions, a track titled, 'Her Heart Magic Moment'.

'Almost, Maine' has been an exciting opportunity for our Assistant Director and Production Manager to collaborate on original music. The direction was to enhance and complement the plot and emotions on display and create a sound design for each love story. With piano, acoustic guitar and strings, Toby and April have created musical motifs and themes which unite all the scenes but give each vignette its own musical 'stamp'.

April Strevens, Production Manager and composer. April has been involved in music, theatre, film and the fine arts for many years.

April says: "utilising music as a uniting tie between the various storylines of Almost, Maine was an important element to balance in composing the score. Altering melody, rhythm, and composition allowed us to connect the story whilst building different tones appropriate to the varying depictions of love throughout."

Later this year, he will be Assistant Director to Lesley Reed for St. Jude’s production of Neighbourhood Watch.

SUMMARY

A sensation in London and New York, this is one of the funniest and most inventive plays by Britain's grand master of comedy.

A hilarious satire of television and a touching romantic comedy, it begins in a television studio where a hospital soap opera is being taped. One actor starts speaking gibberish; he is an "actoid" a robot and his programming is off kilter.

Adam, the young nephew of the producer and an aspiring writer who worships the director (once a great movie director and now a broken down has been), is on the set. Adam starts chatting with Jacie Tripplethree, the actoid (serial number JC333) playing the nurse and finds, to his surprise, that not only can she carry a conversation but, due to what she calls a fault in her programming, she has a creative imagination. 

Adam wants to build a new television series around her but the studio will not hear of it. He also finds he is falling in love with the charming robot!

Will Adam get the green light on his series? Will love prevail? 

Jacie is one of Ayckbourn's greatest characters; her portrayer won all of London's major acting awards.

EPISODE: Wrong Turn at Lungfish

Written by Garry Marshall & Lowell Ganz

Directed by Rosie Aust

Production by Galleon Theatre Group

ABOUT THE EPSIODE

For the Love of Theatre Podcast introduces cast members, Tony Busch, Dora Stamos, Wade Cook, along with Director, Rosie Aust, who discuss everything behind-the-scenes for this production of Wrong Turn at Lungfish by the Galleon Theatre Group.

ABOUT THE PLAY

"A Play Filled with Wit, Wisdom, and Second Chances"

The title refers to an evolutionary hypothesis that man's path from bug to beast wasn't about developing the most sophisticated survival equipment; his development was simply the product of "a wrong turn at the lungfish". 

Funny, heartfelt, and filled with wisdom, Wrong Turn at Lungfish is a must-see for those who know that sometimes, life's best lessons come from unlikely places.
