Rossums Universal Robots

Welcome to our special 2025 Christmas broadcast!

This year we explore the classic Christmas tale of "The Nutcracker & the Mouse King". 

Written in 1816 by E.T.A Hoffman, The Nutcracker & the Mouse King follows little Marie Stahlbaum as she receives a Nutcracker for Christmas.  From there the narrative follows your classic princess and the frog style storyline when Marie learns of the Nutcracker’s plight at the hands of the horrific 7 headed mouse king.  We then explore the ongoing war, stories of legend depicting how the Nutcracker came to be, and the wonderful home of the Nutcracker made of sugar, spice, and all things nice.

It’s a heartwarming Christmas tale, but isn’t afraid to pull it’s punches depicting some darker scenes, akin to the stories of the Brothers Grimm.  It’s a well rounded story with many twists and turns and sure to be an exciting story to bring to life.

Our show is suitable for most audiences with parental supervision advised, due to some gruesome and spooky themes.   

This is act two of two (following chapters nine to fourteen).  

Staring:

Melissa Hawthorne as Marie Stahlbaum

Nikolai Tursan d'Espaignet as the Nutcracker

Douglas Rumble as Godfather Drosselmeier

Jessica Waters as Fritz Stahlbaum

Melanie Rumble as Mr Stahlbaum

Zoe Barker-Smith as Mrs Stahlbaum

Julie Collins as Frau Mouserink

 

Directed by Nicholas Troon

The Nutcracker & The Mouse King - Act 1

Welcome to our 2024 production of Charley's Aunt!

This year WORK300 student, Nicholas Troon, decided to experiment with the classic radio theatre format by including a live audience in his production of Brandon Thomas' "Charley's Aunt".

Charley's Aunt is a hilarious play which follows two lovestruck boys attempting to propose to their respective loves.  Trouble blocks their way in the form of the girls’ melancholic guardian Sir Stephen Spettigue.  As so, the boys need to concoct a plot to get the girls away from their guardians glare and do so in hilarious fashion.  The play features mistaken identity, love, and plenty of laughs.

To fully immerse yourself in our production, compliment your listening experience with our pre-show playlist (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3CanPZm8sGbmuyDNPRwjTS?si=7177f173999e4f4b)

Welcome to our 2024 production of Charley's Aunt!This year WORK300 student, Nicholas Troon, decided to experiment with the classic radio theatre format by including a live audience in his production of Brandon Thomas' "Charley's Aunt".Charley's Aunt is a hilarious play which follows two lovestruck boys attempting to propose to their respective loves.  Trouble blocks their way in the form of the girls’ melancholic guardian Sir Stephen Spettigue.  As so, the boys need to concoct a plot to get the girls away from their guardians glare and do so in hilarious fashion.  The play features mistaken identity, love, and plenty of laughs.To fully immerse yourself in our production, compliment your listening experience with our pre-show playlist (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3CanPZm8sGbmuyDNPRwjTS?si=7177f173999e4f4b)This is act three of three.  Staring: Jessica Waters as Jack Chesney Nikolai Tursan d'Espaignet as Charley Wykham Jay Samuelson as Fancourt Babberly Grace Saxton as Amy Spettigue Melissa Hawthorne as Kitty Verdun Sophie Troon as Brassett Joe Lennox as Sir Francis Chesney Ash Taylor as Sir Stephen Spettigue Emily Moore as Donna Lucia Salvador Jess Rothschild as Ela SalvadorDirected by Nicholas TroonThis recording was performed live at the UNE Bistro on the 5th September.
