A farcical send-off for Mparntwe-Alice Springs theatre couple

A well-known couple who have taught generations of local school students the thrill of the stage will soon bid the Red Centre farewell - but not before a farcical send-off, with the play Noises Off now showing at Totem Theatre. 8CCC Big Brekky host Kate Lyons-Dawson spoke to one half of the couple - Kristina Kidd - about the farce she has directed as the final production the Kidds will produce at the community theatre, one week in to a three-week season. Her husband Steve is playing an old burglar (Selsdson Mowbray), in Kristina's version of a play first reviewed as 'the funniest play ever' when it first opened in London in 1982, and has attracted big crowds to the little theatre by Todd River. Presented by the Alice Springs Theatre Group, Noises Off will be showing this weekend and next, on Saturday and Sunday nights at 7.30pm, plus a special Saturday matinee this week at 4.30pm. Tickets are $30 (book online here), or via QR codes on posters aroung town, and are selling out fast.
