16:00 - STUDENT EVENT - FAWA Crackin' Croquet : FAWA invites you to come down, let it all go and try your hand at croquet! More Information
FAWA has now moved its Crackin' Croquet event to Thursday 17th May.

If you're looking to celebrate the end of mid-semester exams, or need a break from cramming for finals then FAWA invites you to come down, let it all go and try your hand at a crackin' ole game of croquet!

We will be playing at the Nedlands Croquet Club (around the corner from UWA) on the 17th May. Drinks, food and all the equipment you need are provided.

The lovely folk of Nedlands Croquet will be passing on all their years of wisdom at the beginning of the session. So get down on time if you wish to start off mildly competitive, as no doubt the quality of play will deteriorate into the night. Croquet is fun, easy to play and the only sport to boast a current world champion that is 75 years old. If their arthritic bodies can do it, so can yours!

Tickets are on sale from Monday, 7th May in the UWA Business School Common Room 1pm-2pm.

Tickets are limited so be sure to get in early!

This event is free so come and check it out!

19:30 - PERFORMANCE - The vocal program at The School of Music, UWA Presents "The Mikado - in absentia" More Information
What happens when you have a show needing a chorus of men and five major male leads, but only five men and not a tenor in sight, too many women who are all suitable to sing the two major women leads, no budget, no sets, no props, a bare music auditorium and a grand piano?

Answer. UWA Vocal Students condensed version of Gilbert & Sullivan's The Mikado. Arguably the most popular Gilbert & Sullivan opera of all time, this is a Mikado with a difference. Watch as the Mikado never appears. Be stunned at the multi-personalities of Yum Yum, Nanki Poo, as you've never seen him before, Pooh Bah from Glasgow, and Katisha "the cougar". Be amazed at how great the men's chorus sounds ... with women. Look out for the next Lord High Executioner - will it be you? Witty dialogue, new narration, stunning music, and fresh and eager young voices. Why haven't you booked your seat already? A Mikado not to be missed.

Artistic Director Andrew Foote Accompanist and Coach Caroline Badnall
