A MAGNIFICENT 7

Encore Theatre Company has scooped the pool and is thrilled to have received 7 Tasmanian Theatre Awards (“The Errols”) last Saturday for their 2015 productions of Mary Poppins and Evita.

Mary Poppins received 6 Awards in Community - for Best Production, Best Lead Performances (Abbey Hansson & Frank Kerr), Best Direction (Danny Gibson), Best Choreography (Kelly Hortle) and Best Technical (Marcello Lo Ricco for Sound Design). And Evita picked up the Best Design Award (Darryl Rogers for Set Design).

Company Co-President Belinda King says, “If Mary Poppins is about one central idea, then it has to be learning to fly. And it took a team of 150 volunteers to create our Poppins and make her fly high, which she certainly did at the Tasmanian Theatre Awards.” (L to R Abbey Hansson, Danny Gibson, Frank Kerr)
