15 Memorable Productions
Image by Dramagirl via Flickr 1. My first theatre memory – I believe it was a play, probably a vaudeville show which they used to produce at the old Cremorne Theatre in Brisbane. I must have been about 2 or 3. I recall little but the sound, the lights, laughter and general atmosphere. Apparently I
