Yesterday, five.point.one and the Adelaide theatre community lost a very dear friend and collaborator.

Cass designed all of our main stage productions and the company will miss her deeply. Cass was an exceptionally talented and generous person who gave so much to so many in the community.

We are blessed to have worked so closely with her. We simply could not have achieved all that we have in the last three years without Cass. She was a dear friend to us all.

Her memory will live on in all that we do into the future. Our love and thoughts go to her partner Ben Flett at this very sad time.

Vale dear Cass

All of the five.point.one ensemble would like to thank everyone who helped make our Pozible crowd funding drive a success!

We hit our target with just hours to go! Thanks to everyone who spread the word and helped make the drive a success.

We're not out of the woods yet though, we still have our Quiz Night to come to raise the final amount that will help put the finishing touches on our production of That Face. So start organising a team and watch this space for details.

 

That's right folks, Quiz Night Two is on the horizon so eat your broccoli and put this date into your diaries

Raising two thousand dollars in seventy days...
Should be easy enough? We certainly hope so.

five.point.one is raising funds for our next show That Face by Polly Stenham and we need your help to spread the word.

We've set up a project on the crowdfunding site Pozzible. Tell your friends, your brothers, your mothers, the guy you buy your coffee from. People can donate as little or as much as they want, and every donation receives recognition.

It's an easy way to get that warm fuzzy feeling you get when you know you've helped make something great.

Stay tuned for regular updates to see how we go...
