COLD COMFORT
Directed by Brendan Rock
Return Season!

Cold Comfort, written by Owen McCafferty, directed by Brendan Rock and starring David Rock (they're twins!), is the story of Kevin Toner who returns to Belfast after an absence of 15 years to have a last 'conversation' with his recently deceased father. Lyrical, hard hitting and loaded with raw emotion, Cold Comfort reveals a man facing his demons
"A quietly dramatic magic: no tricks, just human nature revealed with infinite humanity" Mail on Sunday
"Rock brings this vulnerable, shattered man to life. His performance is poignant without being sentimental" Kate Herbert, Herald Sun

Dates:26 November - 6 December
Times: Thurs - Sat 8pm, Sun 6pm

THE ANVILLES

Lurking in the cesspool of the Melbourne music scene, The Anvilles are not your average Psychobilly band. Children of parents
who's parents were musicians, their aim is to entertain you, amuse you, abuse you and accuse you. At 8 years old, in the wee years of their childhood, James, Dom and Darcy jammed in their bedrooms, creating old school rockabilly rock n roll. It wasn't until 2008 when The Anvilles and Louella Deville would meet and discover she must be part of The Anvilles forming the four piece Psychobilly band fuelled by the same desires and ambitions.

By mid 2008, they were jamming and playing shows with their new front woman all around Melbourne. The Anvilles have performed at various venues around Melbourne and played on stage at the Moonee Valley festival and Melbourne's Moonee Valley Youth Festival. Their music has taken on its own style, something they can describe as heavy Psychobilly mixed with Jazz, Blues, Punk Rock, Rock n Roll and of course our beloved Rockabilly. The Anvilles influences range from a array of things darkand dirty, sensual and scary, seductive and sexy, politics, school, lustful thinking, blood sucking vampires and heartbreak.
2009 has been a big year for The Anvilles so far, playing many shows throughout Melbourne. Chapel Off Chapel will be their next stop, a show not to be missed.

Date: 21st December
Time: 7:30pm
Tickets: $22.50 (+ Plus Transaction Fee)
Performance Running Time: Approx 90mins.
