We are in the process of navigating the process of re-opening our Theatre, and we hope to be presenting performances again by August 2020.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING CORONAVIRUS COVID-19 AND THE ROLEYSTONE THEATRE INC. POSTPONEMENT OF PERFORMANCES
Tuesday 17th March, 2020
It is with deep regret that the Roleystone Theatre Inc. committee has made the very difficult decision to postpone our production of ‘A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Forum’ – due to perform in March and April 2020 at the Roleystone Hall amid COVID-19 community concerns. This close to a production opening we are of course already deeply entrenched in the financial and practical needs of any given show and it is not lightly that this decision has been reached.
The safety of our volunteers, patrons and the general public is our highest priority and we are doing our best to keep our community safe.
What we are doing:
• We are closing ticket sales for ‘A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Forum’.
• We are hopeful that we will be able to postpone this season until March 2021, and we hope you will re-book at this time. We will keep our community updated on this point.
• Our other scheduled seasons for this year, our Youth Workshop productions and Terry’s Pratchett’s Monstrous Regiment, are currently postponed and we will monitor the situation for when we will may able to reschedule these shows.

We absolutely need to recognise the incredible amount of hard work and dedication from the cast, crew and production team of 'A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Forum'. To have to go ‘dark’ this close to the opening performances is difficult, and we acknowledge you all and thank you for all your efforts right up to today. We are hopeful we will get this show up and running in 2021, so this comedy musical and your talents can be shared with the theatre-goers of Perth.
We thank our members and community for your support and look forward to welcoming you to one of our productions in the future.
Kind regards,
Bree Hartley (President) and the Roleystone Theatre Inc. Committee
