Yes friends, another journey around the Sun has been completed, and it’s once again time to get together for the CTC AGM. This year, we invite members to join us after the meeting for an open reading of Camp Darwin, a drama set in the Howard Springs Quarantine Facility in Darwin. Written by Central Victorian, internationally celebrated playwright, Arjun Raina, the play explores the experiences of citizens who have returned to Australia on a government aided Qantas flight after a year or more stuck in India.
When: Thursday 20th March, 7pm to approximately 7.40pm, followed by a short break then the Camp Darwin reading.
Where: The CTC Studio, Upstairs at Autoplex (The Engineering Block of the old Castlemaine Secondary Senior Campus), 35 Etty Street, Castlemaine
The Guest Chair will be Jane McCahon. Jane is the Chair of Castlemaine Circus and also Victorian Inclusion Agency Program Manager for the Community Child Care Association.
