Our tour will take in some of the famous landmarks as we explore this colonial and charming town and region. Day 1 (LD): CANBERRA TO MUDGEE: Tuesday 13 August Be warmly greeted as we load our luggage onto the Potter Travel coach and settle into our seats. The Doctor Doctor series is now in its third season and has become popular with Australian, and overseas, audiences. Heading to Camden, we are in the vicinity of Denbigh House, the property used as the family home of the ‘Knight family’. Unfortunately, the homestead cannot be seen from the street but we will get a sense of where it was filmed and the cast often stayed in Camden. We have lunch at Camden Park House, the country mansion of John & Elizabeth Macarthur. The property possesses a grand colonnade verandah and is home to Australia's oldest oak tree grown from an acorn given to John Macarthur at Buckingham Palace! The surrounding 30 ha of garden represent a fine and rare surviving example of an early 19th century garden, albeit with later additions and alterations.

All of our events post March 2020 will be going ahead as scheduled. The Leadership Institute is committed to ensuring that all clients who have purchased tickets will get value for money from our events through credit or live streaming of the events. As a small business experiencing this troubling time, we appreciate and value your ongoing support. WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP SUMMIT 2020 SYDNEY, 20TH-23RD OCTOBER 2020 This event will also be live streamed due to disruption caused by Corona Virus (COVID-19). Live streaming tickets are available at checkout. Re-ignite! Back for its fifth year, the Women in Leadership Summit 2020 is guaranteed to be our best one yet! This year’s theme is Re-Ignite. We’ve had so much to worry about in the last six months that it’s time to re- ignite the passion for diversity and equality in the workplace, re-ignite our desires to move up and be seen, re-ignite the fire for pay equality and shared parental responsibility. Let’s create our own opportunities while helping and inspiring those around us. Let’s face it. A lot of companies say they are more committed to gender equality than ever before. But we’ve just had the most disruptive time in modern history. What will this mean in the fight for equality. We still have a severe lack of women in senior roles, especially the C-Suite.

S ’ Have you ever been listening to someone tell a story and been overcome with the urge to scream SHUT UP!? Have you ever been so bored at a work event you wanted to kick someone in the groin? Have you ever been in a car travelling very fast on a highway and thought about jerking the steering wheel to the side? Me neither. That would be crazy. But a character who follows through on those impulses and doesn’t give a damn about the consequences was the starting point of this play. Kimberly is dangerous because she is fearless. She pours petrol over banality and sets it on fire, figuratively and literally. She doesn’t laugh unless there’s something funny. She knows she’s not the PLAYWRIGHT NOTE architect of the body and face she was given. She refutes the falsehoods we’re trained to accept.

King Edward IV is newly declared King, but his youngest brother, Richard (Gloucester) is resentful of Edward’s power and the general happiness of the state. Driven by ruthless ambition and embittered by his own deformity, he initiates a secret plot to take the throne by eradicating anyone who stands in his path. Richard has King Edward suspect their brother Clarence of treason and he is brought to the Tower by Brackenbury. Richard convinces Clarence that Edward’s wife, Queen Elizabeth, and her brother Rivers, are responsible for this slander and Hastings’ earlier imprisonment. Richard swears sympathy and allegiance to Clarence, but later has him murdered. Richard then interrupts the funeral procession of Henry VI to woo Lady Anne (previously betrothed to Henry VI’s deceased son, again killed by Richard). He falsely professes his love for her as the cause of his wrong doings, and despite her deep hatred for Richard, she is won and agrees to marry him.
