'War Stories', written and directed by Lithgow Theatre Group's Si Townsend, is a gritty and raw account of one man's experiences in the trenches of World War I.
The stage is split into two sets with a war scene and much later in Billy's life. Billy and older man and his granddaughter are sitting in a bar waiting for the ANZAC march.
Billy recounts to his granddaughter his experiences, with flashback to the war showing the conditions and emotional strain of World War I.
Al Shirt plays Sarge, Jayson Wilkinson is young Billy, and Judy Riley is Mick Taylor. Leo Murnane plays the older Billy with Emma Francis playing his granddaughter. Kay Shirt is the barperson.
'Classic Claustrophobia', written by Jenny Rixon and directed by Judy Riley, is set in a broken-down office lift.
What happens when a very pregnant woman gets stuck in a lift with two other women, one of whom is her boss? The three women will have plenty of time to get to know each other - and there's plenty of twists to come.
The play features Greer Ashworth, Kylie Pearce and Beth McGovern.
