A Complete Unknown (2025)

(The biographical film about Bob Dylan)

Based on the 2015 book Dylan Goes Electric! by Elijah Wald, the film portrays Dylan through his earliest folk music success through until the momentous controversy over his use of electric instruments. As a musician who lived through the ’60s folk revival, A Complete Unknown is like opening a time capsule. It’s a powerful reminder of when music could shake the world. Dylan’s trailblazing sound and fearless voice didn’t just change folk; they redefined what art could be.

Being There (1979)

Tuesday 8th April 2025. Doors open at 7pm.

Cheshunt Hall

Being There is a satirical comedy-drama starring Peter Sellers as Chance, a simple-minded gardener whose worldview is shaped entirely by television. After his employer’s death, Chance’s innocent demeanor and simple gardening metaphors are hilariously mistaken for profound wisdom by society’s elite. The film expertly combines humor and social commentary, offering a timeless critique of media, politics, and superficiality. With its witty award winning script and standout performances, Being There remains a must-watch classic.

Look forward to seeing you there!

by Multi-award-winning Australian circus group A Good Catch

Friday 30th August  7pm
Moyhu Soldier’s Memorial Hall

Adults $30 Children $5
Ticket price includes a delicious supper by Moyhu CWA 

0408 625 063

Winner: Best Circus And Physical Theatre Adelaide Fringe 2019
Winner: Best Circus Total Theatre & Jacksons Lane Award for Circus Edinburgh Fringe 2018

Casting Off is a joyful, absurd, witty and poignant circus show. A refreshing and uplifting conversation between three generations, it challenges the stereotypes of women and aging. Casting Off throws away the textbook on how contemporary circus is viewed, challenging conventions and subverting expectations. Funny and heartfelt, these powerhouse women tumble, talk, fly, and balance precariously, making the personal – political, the furious – funny, and the acrobatics are downright dangerous.

A joyous accumulation of moments that shine a light on women relating to each other in playful, fruitful relationships. Flipping and climbing to a soundscape of the many disparate texts (lists, poems, conversations, melodies, arguments, and biographies) that embody each day.

Casting Off is a non-narrative circus with words that’s easier done than said. Self-directed, hand-knitted, and honouring the life events that get in the way of work, it’s a theatrical circus experience that celebrates thoughtful, strong, and resilient individuals.
