filled with wonderment and good old-fashioned cheer - Suzy Wrong, Suzy Goes See

good natured, light entertainment - David Kary, Sydney Arts Guide

one of the best productions I've seen this year - Lisa Thatcher

Dear Daisy Meredith. Forced to endure middle class servitude from the wrong side of the tracks, she positively leaps, salmon-like, at the chance of attending Grangewood School for Young Ladies. Naturally, she has to overcome beastly snobs who don't want her type at their school, foul, beastly plots to besmirch her name and get her expelled, skullduggery (of a beastly nature), and even the shame of having to learn hockey from a beastly book!

But, in this affectionate, non-beastly look at innocent school days long gone, I have a sneaking suspicion that Daisy, Trixie and all their plucky chums might just save the day, save the school and find enough time for a wizard midnight feast or two! Oh, do say you'll join us? It promises to be ripping fun!

On Saturday 26th October 2013 the Genesian Theatre will donate 50% of all Box Office takings to the Australian Red Cross. We encourage you to come along to help us support this worthwhile cause.
