Our guest speaker on Wednesday night was Penny Hooper From DAYS FOR GIRLS. (DFG) The Presentation was both interesting and in some ways heart rendering. The DFG is a non profit organisation creating a better future for girls in developing countries by providing advocacy; reproductive health education and sustainable feminine hygiene products. Their goal is to help girls who would otherwise go without to have access to quality sustainable feminine hygiene and awareness. This is achieved by providing and distributing feminine Hygiene kits to girls and providing health and safety education training to those that need it the most. It is hard to imagine What Happens to the young girls who don’t receive this assistance: · Days of Isolation during menstruation. · No study for days · No access to hygiene · No income for days · Girls can miss up to 8 months schooling in 3 years. If you want more information about this very good and worthwhile program please contact Penny Hooper on 0400013332 or email pennyhdaysforgirls.org /www.daysforgirls.org ... See MoreSee Less

THEATRE NIGHT FUNDRAISING FOR MOTOR NEURONS

March 5, 2015, 7:30pm

Camelot Theatre
12-16 Lochee st
Mosman Park, WA 6012 Map

The Female of the Species is a comic play by Joanna Murray-Smith first performed in 2006. Play performed by Harbour Theatre. Supper Supplied. Bar available. The Female Of The Species is a biting comedy of revenge and shifting philosophies. Thirty years ago Margot Mason, pioneer of the 1973's Women's Liberation Movement and fearless academic, wrote her ground-breaking work "The Cerebral Vagina" and numerous best-sellers followed. Now she has writer's block. Her life is progressively turned upside down with the arrival of a devoted ex-student, a daughter crying for help, her clueless stockbroker son-in-law, an agitated taxi driver, her impatient publicist and a loaded gun!! Margot must use her wits to defend er philosophies and stay alive! Prolific Australian playwright Joanna Murray-Smith has created a wickerd and very funny analysis of feminism, post-feminism and its effects on those who try to keep up with the ever changing goal posts. The initial plot premise is inspired be a real-life incident in April 2000, when author Germaine Greer was held captive in her home by a deluded young student. Produced by Melbourne Theatre Company followed by a 4 month run on London's West End, The Female Of The Species was last performed in Perth by the Black Swan Theatre Company in 2008. Director, Trevor Dhu, has previously directed various highly successful and critically acclaimed plays and musicals for community theatres in Perth. Most recently Trevor has directed On Golden Pond and A Love Affair for Harbour Theatre, Spike Heels for Melville Theatre and West Side Story
