New talent wanted after 45 years

Woy Woy Little Theatre is calling on "new and young" talent after celebrating its 46th year on the Peninsula.

"Woy Woy Little Theatre always welcomes new talent," publicity officer Ms Patrice Horne said.

"Learning the art of theatrical productions is a great springboard for your acting career.

"Acting and theatre are also great for building confidence and help with public speaking skills.

"If you feel you have that special acting talent, or if the art of local theatre production is something you could get passionate about, then contact us now," Ms Horne said.

Woy Woy Little Theatre will be starting off its 46th year with Ira Levlin's production thriller "Deathtrap" during late February and early March.

Following on will be Simon Hopkinson's Australian comedy "Lipstick Dreams", beginning June 27 through to July 6.

"We constantly get great audiences for our shows," Ms Horne said.

"My aim for this year is to entice some younger generations to the joys of the theatre."

Woy Woy Little Theatre was first established in 1962 and is a non-profit community drama group.

The theatre is run by "a passionate group" of local actors, directors and theatre lovers.

"Our aim is to bring a diverse program of plays to the community to suit all ages," Ms Horne said.

"The theatre also aims to encourage and provide education for youth, in all facets of theatrical production."

Woy Woy Little Theatre is located at Peninsula Theatre on the corner of McMasters Rd and Ocean Beach Rd, Woy Woy, which is the only purpose built theatre space of its kind on the Central Coast.
