Sydney Theatre Co Wharf Review Presents NOT QUITE OUT OF THE WOODS Oct 6

Sydney Theatre Company presents THE WHARF REVUE Not Quite Out of the Woods, written and created by Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe and Phillip Scott

6 October to 12 December 2010. Opening Night 8 October 2010 at 8:15pm
Wharf 2, Sydney Theatre Company, Pier 4 Hickson Road, Walsh Bay

The ever-popular Wharf Revue returns in 2010, serving up Sydney's tastiest smorgasbord of irreverent humour with Not Quite Out of the Woods. Performances are at Wharf 2 from 6 October 2010, preceded by a NSW tour and followed by the Revue's first season at Melbourne Theatre Company.

Watch in startling 1-D as the heroic Abbottar infiltrates the marginal electorates and becomes one with the Mar'gi, a forgotten race of fringe dwellers who fight to stop the boats and strip-mine the magical forests.

Follow Red Riding Hood as she tries to navigate through the factional deadwood, aided by Bob Brown - the woodcutter who can't cut down anything.

Stumble upon a forest glade, where proud Kristina and her Unpopular Mechanicals rehearse their next charade for the long-suffering citizens of NSW.

Follow the Japanese wha - sorry, scientists - as they hunt for the fish John West rejects, when Moby Dick meets the Iron Chef!

Join Sarah Palin for a mad tea party, vote for your favourite dysfunctional economy in the Eurodivision Sovereign-Debt Song Contest or quietly die inside as Mark Latham hosts "Hey, Hey, It's Yesterday!"

Who said fairy tales can't come true?
