We hope that this 25th Anniversary Concert will be on the calender for all music lovers, specially those interested in the history of a cappella singing here in Hobart. 'RELIVE THE GLORY'

Kev’s songs are as unique as the man himself, with insight and a humour as hard and dry as his outback heritage. Definitely not for the faint-hearted, it has been said that a Kevin Bloody Wilson song can either stop a bar room brawl or fill a concert hall!

Looking for a mini golf , putt putt course, minature golf? Craig Bartlett’s Putt & Play business models are a complete system for financing, installing, and running a mini golf operation. The system is designed to work in a new location or within an already established business, fitting like a glove into existing infrastructure to create substantial reductions on investment costs, and to improve business at the existing establishment. The Mini Golf systems can be placed anywhere in the world. The proposition provides tempting economics for investors and has the ability to revitalise a stale business with existing land and infrastructure. The concept has been proven on three large scale, world-class mini golf courses. Two are located in Tasmania and one in Brisbane. The first course has been operating for 4 years now and is located at Grindelwald Resort in Launceston Tasmania. The second is at Barilla Holiday Park, Hobart. This course has its 1st birthday this Easter Holidays 2007. The 3rd course was opened December 2006 at Victoria Park Golf Complex, in the centre of Brisbane, Hurston Rd, Hurston. In all three cases, the mini golf system revolutionised the existing business, turned around their property, and brought substantial gains to the host business and investors alike. In addition to our 18 Hole Mini Golf Business Models we also have a new concept called Putt & Play Putting Ranges. An 18 hole course takes up an area of between 2,000 and 3,500 square meters of land area. Putting Ranges can be supplied in modules from 20m2 up to an 18 hole putting range taking up a space of 1,000m2.

 THE AUSTRALIAN WOODEN BOAT FESTIVAL - February 6 to 9, 2009 - EARLYBIRD DISCOUNT 
 THE LARAMIE PROJECT - October 23 to November 1 
On October 7 1988, a young gay man was discovered bound to a fence in the hills outside Laramie, Wyoming. He had been savagely beaten and left to die in an act of brutality and hate that reverberated round the world. Matthew Shepard's death became a international symbol of intolerance. In the aftermath of the death of Matthew Shepard, members of a New York based theatre company, the Tektonic Theatre Project, made six trips to the wide open spaces of Wyoming over the course of a year and a half. They conducted over 200 interviews with people from the town. From these interviews as well as their own experiences, the actors constructed The Laramie Project. Premiered almost a decade ago, the play has received innumerable productions and awards internationally. The Laramie Project uses an ensemble of 8 male and female actors to embody more than sixty different people in their own words - from rural ranchers to university professors. The result is a complex and deeply moving theatrical experience that explores the depths to which humanity can sink - and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

 WHO KNOWS? February 17 - 28 
It's about life, and it's about time. Meet Russell Lambert. He's about to turn 30. He works in a laundromat. At least he did until he got the sack earlier this week. He has a Tom Baker scarf, Tom Baker underpants and a fiance. At least he did until his brother stole them all. He's about to become the President of the Doctor Who Club of Tasmania. At least he might if he can save the world from the nefarious machinations of the bad guys. He's not impossible, just a bit unlikely. Written and directed by Paul McIntyre.
