Play Theatre Games in the Park (Maroubra Beach!)

**Join us at MAROUBRA BEACH to play Theatre Games with friendly and awesome people!** This will double as a Theatre Games session and early Christmas Party 🎄 We’ll do the usual Improv 3pm-5pm, and bring your favourite food / snacks for an optional swim & dinner 5pm-7pm. Everyone is welcome, no matter your level of Improv expertise! For an example of the type of fun that can go on in our days see: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a23t0evG3xI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a23t0evG3xI) There is a $3 fee per event, or you can pay a $25 annual membership fee. This covers the costs of running the group. The fee can be paid in person, or by transferring to the followin**g account:** **Name:** Theatre Games **BSB:** 923 100 **Acc No:** 313632027 Use your name in the reference line so the Treasurer can keep track of your contribution. If you choose to pay the annual membership fee, it would be a great help to us if you would note your membership start date, and renew your membership when needed. This will avoid us spending time on account-keeping, which means we can instead focus on making the games as fun as possible! We have Facebook and Instagram pages, on which we post group photos and occasionally other announcements. Feel free to Like :) [https://www.facebook.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park-Sydney-487255451682498/](https://www.facebook.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park-Sydney-487255451682498/) [https://www.instagram.com/theatregamesintheparksydney](https://www.instagram.com/theatregamesintheparksydney?fbclid=IwAR2fMlbCnv1PVQXX0xO7d6d_4mMDsXtT3dcs1awToamKK-ag1AAQhVYyPLQ) **FAQ** **Location & Parking** Aim for Arthur Byrne Reserve, Cnr Fitzgerald Ave & Marine Parade. Follow the pin location on the day, we may fine tune the exact spot. If you have trouble finding us, message on the event chat, we’ll monitor that. Parking may be possible but public transport is recommended. **Instructional videos for newcomers** For those completely new to the concept of theatre games or improvisation, you might find the following instructional videos helpful to you: 1. The importance of facing the audience in the right way [https://youtu.be/VO7EXv-dVYA](https://youtu.be/VO7EXv-dVYA) 2\. The importance of not saying "no" to everything in a scene: [https://youtu.be/GjptDwG96e8](https://youtu.be/GjptDwG96e8) Why is my status saying "Unpaid" even though I have paid? This is due to a bad design feature of the Meetup website, please ignore it! Keeping up with the latest news and related fun events Go to our Facebook Discussion Group. This is a fun way to share improv/comedy clips, discuss improv and generally chat with the cool members of our group! [https://www.facebook.com/groups/2112357978921450](https://www.facebook.com/groups/2112357978921450) **What if it rains?** We’ll find a suitable nearby shelter, or if this is not possible we’ll take temporary shelter at a local pub or venue. The sessions go ahead one way or another and no one is left behind. **Can you help promote my event / group / cult?** Yes.. but within reason! We love to help our members who are doing awesome and creative projects. The problem is that because we get asked to promote things so often, we cannot do so via social media posts. As this would cause our members to be "spammed" and announcements about upcoming events to get buried. However, there are still two ways we can help to promote your project. Firstly, please feel free to post on our Facebook Discussion group. Secondly, you are also welcome to post in our [Meetup Forum](https://www.meetup.com/Theatre-Games-in-the-Park/discussions/), where your post may be seen by our 1,800+ members. Lastly, we may be able to help in additional ways if you wish to share an opportunity for our members to perform. In this case we may be able to send a Meetup Message to our members, or to announce it in person at our events. **What if I have other questions?** If possible please post any questions in the comments area below rather than directly messaging us, so that others can see the answer too. This will allow us to spend less time answering messages, and more time making the games as fun as possible!

THE KING WHO WAS A KING

THE KING WHO WAS A KING From the novel by H.G. Wells Adapted and Directed by Ayah Tayeh “Our hero must be a man without frustrations. He is to be yourself and myself as we would like to be, simplified, clear in mind, unencumbered and going directly to his objective.” – H.G. Wells The King and The Prince are dead. A bomb on the prince’s wedding day has destroyed any chance for peace and now two countries are on the brink of war. Hungry for bloodshed, the next in line is eager to take the throne. Can the world take another resource war? It’s up to Paul Zelinka, the unsuspecting son of an exiled prince, to go home, reclaim the throne, and bring peace to the region. H.G. Wells released The King Who Was a King in 1929 to no acclaim, but he was convinced that he had written the story that would end war forever. Now, we’re going to stage it.
