  • It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of our beloved friend and collaborator, Anna Marinelli, after a courageous fight against a long term illness. Anna, known as ‘Mamma Marra’ or ‘Marra’ to all of us who looked up to her, was a major contributor to WMTC over the years, beginning with her involvement in the inception of the renewed and re-branded WMTC in 2006. She acted as Secretary of the company from 2007 to 2009, returned as a committee member in 2014 and assisted both with our costume department as well as our junior productions in various roles. In addition, she came up with the name for our inaugural Cabaret Festival in 2007 “Mechelec” being a combination of the words Mechanics and Electra Street. Apart from this, Anna was a much loved mentor and friend to all that passed through our doors, whether a performer, volunteer or management member. Her enthusiasm and love of theatre was infectious and no more apparent than when she was directly involved in a theatre production, ten of which were with WMTC as follows: ‘Work in Progress’ Company Relaunch and Concert (2006 - Director); ‘SHOUT! The Legend of the Wild One’ (2006 - Director); ‘Into the Woods’ (2008 - Director); ‘That Musical Feeling’ Concert (2010 - Director); ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels’ (2010 - Cast Member “Muriel”); ‘DUSTY - The Original Pop Diva’ (2011 - Director); ‘Red, Hot and COLE’ (2012 - Director); ‘Sweet Charity’ (2013 - Cast Member); ‘Urinetown’ (2013 - Director); ‘WMTC’s 10th Anniversary Concert’ (2017 - Director). Anna will be incredibly missed by the WMTC family and we thank her with endless love for everything that she has imparted to all of us, as well as to Melbourne’s theatre community. Our heartfelt condolences, thoughts, and love to Marra’s family and friends. Vale our ‘Mamma Marra’

  • #sentimentalsunday to our 2018 production of 'SIDE SHOW' based on the true story of Siamese twins Violet and Daisy Hilton who became stars during the Depression, the production was a moving portrait of two women joined at the hip whose extraordinary bondage brings them fame but denies them love. The very thing that made them different… made them extraordinary. #wmtc #wmtcalumni #musicaltheatre #theatre #wmtcinc #thearts #talent #melbournemusicals #williamstownmusicaltheatrecompany

  • It's hard for us to remember a time when rehearsals were happening, when we were producing shows, choreographing dance numbers, teaching harmonies and creating heart felt scenes. It’s hard for us to remember a time where we were able to provide a safe space for artists to come and express themselves unapologetically. So forgive us for saying that it is also hard for us to remember how to be true to ourselves when we are not doing any of these above things. But soon we will return to the stage. Soon we will be able to open our doors once again, to offer a home, with a family that we all choose to be a part of. Soon... #motivationalmonday #musicalmotivation #theatrequotes #musicaltheatrequotes #weeklyinspo #theatrequotesweekly #wmtcinc #wmtc #everythingIlearnedisbecauseoftheatre

  • Approximately one year ago, restrictions were beginning to be enforced upon us to protect us from COVID-19. Over the last 12 months we’ve all lost ourselves along the way… A little or a lot. But it’s important to remember that when you lose yourself, who knows what you might find. Let’s all choose to use the next 12 months to begin on the path of rediscovery into ourselves. #motivationalmonday #musicalmotivation #theatrequotes #musicaltheatrequotes #weeklyinspo #theatrequotesweekly #wmtcinc #wmtc #everythingIlearnedisbecauseoftheatre

  • #sentimentalsaturday to our 2018 production of 'HOT MIKADO' and our first production performed at the Centenary Theatre. The production was a hilarious and ‘HOT’ updating of Gilbert and Sullivan’s ‘The Mikado’, and weaved a sharp witted, fun-filled tale where despite life or death stakes, characters still found time to croon their troubles away. #wmtc #wmtcalumni #musicaltheatre #theatre #wmtcinc #thearts #talent #melbournemusicals #williamstownmusicaltheatrecompany

  • #ThrowbackThursday to our 2016 production of 'City of Angels', a wickedly funny celebration of the 1940’s film noir genre and dark detective fiction which takes place in two worlds. The ambitious writer of a Hollywood screenplay, Stine, struggles as he negotiates his demanding film studio boss, compromises on his movie and dealing with the women in his life, while his creation, ‘private eye’ Stone takes on a life of his own and mysteriously gatecrashes Stine’s life. While screenwriter Stine’s detective story plays out in black and white in the ‘reel world’, he finds the dangerous temptations of ‘real world’ Los Angeles almost too colourful and endlessly alluring. #wmtc #wmtcalumni #musicaltheatre #theatre #wmtcinc #thearts #talent #melbournemusicals #williamstownmusicaltheatrecompany

The Addams Family – November 2015

Williamstown Musical Theatre Company is proud to present The Addams Family running from the 6th to 21st November 2015 at the Williamstown Mechanics Institute Theatre.
 
The Addams Family features an original story, and it’s every father’s nightmare. Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that weren’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s ‘normal’ boyfriend and his parents.
