Brisbane – prepare for the HIT US MUSICAL COMEDY, SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody

March 4, 2013 by Vikram Goyal

Spank the musical

This March, Brisbane will host the national premiere season of SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody, the critically acclaimed production that brings all the naughty fun of the notorious best-selling book to life.  

Direct from the US, where three productions are currently touring simultaneously SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody will open on March 14th at the Twelfth Night Theatre in Brisbane and it is set to shake the city.  It is the parody of the book that took the world by storm, selling over 65 million copies worldwide as the fastest-selling paperback of all time.

SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody is a critically acclaimed production that brings all the naughty fun of the notorious best-selling book to life. Your inner goddess will be laughing out loud with this wicked parody of the illicit love affair between the two main characters as they come to life with sharp-witted comedy, musical numbers and steamy, fun performances from the hunky leading man, plus lots of surprises! It’s an erotic, hilarious adaptation.

Sydney-based Stephen Mahy plays the charming and menacing lead role. Mahy is a distinguished singer, actor and dancer with previous roles including Bob Gaudio in Jersey Boys, a favourite in Channel 10’s series I Will Survive, appearances in Channel 7’s City Homicide, and numerous other successful roles on stage across Australia.

Caitlin Berry plays the young and naïve student seduced by the sophisticated and erotic protagonist played by Mahy. Berry has toured Australia with the new musical Doctor Zhivago, and most recently covered the lead role of Nellie Forbush in the smash hit South Pacific.

Leading Australian actress and comedian Rebecca De Unamuno joins them on stage. She has written and worked with some of the best entertainers and writers in the business including Hamish & Andy and Kath & Kim. She was a main cast member of Comedy Inc, acted in Thick as Thieves and has also worked with The Chaser’s War on Everything.

This theatre production has been touring across the United States to rave reviews. Be amongst the first in Australia to see what everyone is talking about. SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody makes for a great girls night out experience – perfect for those who love a bit of Sex in the City style naughtiness.

The first four shows are on sale now; Thursday 14th, Friday 15th, Saturday 16th of March at 8pm and Sunday 17th of March at 2pm. Tickets are priced from $49.90. To purchase tickets to SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody, please visit Ticketmaster online, Ticketmaster outlets or call Twelfth Night Theatre on 3252 5122. For more information on SPANK!

Pencil Cross Stitch Patterns

Last year I shared my cute pencil cross stitch bookmark pattern, so I thought this year maybe I would look for more pencil cross stitch patterns to celebrate back to school or the writer in your life. 

If you’re looking for a fancier version of a pencil bookmark, check out this pretty one from Embrovera. It has pretty flowers and hearts around the pencil with a stitched border. It measures 27 by 86 stitches and comes out to 1.9 by 6.1 inches, or 4.9 by 15.6 cm, stitched on 14 count fabric. 

Speaking of flowers, there’s also this floral pencil cross stitch design from Oh My Stitches Shop. The pencil is black on this one but you could make it any color you like. It measures 37 by 102 stitches and uses 17 colors. On 14 count fabric it is 2.36 by 7.08 inches, or 6.71 by 18.5 cm. 

If you want to stitch a pencil that’s a cute teacher gift for back to school, try this one from Daily Cross Stitch, which features a pencil stretched into a heart shape and a heart shaped eraser. It calls for 11 colors and is 65 by 52. On 14 count fabric that comes to 4.64 by 3.71 inches, or 11.78 by 9.42 cm. 

There’s also this cute chubby pencil with the word learn from Stitch Gallery PDF that would be cute for a teacher (or a homeschool classroom). It looks like it uses five colors and the designer suggests using a piece of fabric that’s around 7 inches/17.6 cm square for this project. 

How about a teeny tiny pencil cross stitch pattern? This one from Bella Rose Craft also includes a wee apple design, and these mini patterns would be cute as a necklace or keychain charm. And at 7 by 13 stitches you can finish this one up in no time. 

Stitch the pencil alone or with this cute collection of school supplies that includes a glue bottle, crayons and calculator. The pattern is from sosacaetano, and it would be so cute for a classroom or stitched on a card. The full design as show is 6 by 1.75 inches (15.24 by 4.44 cm) on 14 count fabric.
