“THE Shearer That Could Have Been” is the Griffyn Ensemble’s next show. Billed as “a spooky night of spine-chilling music and paranormal activity set on Christmas Eve”, it actually takes place at Yarralumla Woolshed on December 12 and 13. It is a collaboration with prizewinning Canberra author and resident griffyn (the creature) expert, Katie Taylor. Bookings through iwannaticket.com.au

TEMPO Theatre will be back in 2015 doing their favourite thing – murder. First up will be an Agatha Christie classic, “Spider’s Web,” directed by Tempo’s Jon Elphick. The show will also tour to the recently-finished Tin Shed Theatre in Cootamundra. Even more exciting, Bob Morris and Michael Weston are staging that delicious black comedy “Arsenic and Old Lace”, in which innocent nephew Mortimer discovers that his sweet old aunties are serial murderers.
