Valentine’s Day. Many will spend it over a candlelit dinner or a romantic movie.
If that is not the style for you— or your beloved– then why not head down the highway and learn a little about Little River.
Damian Callinan will be delivering his show Hall Stories with his trademark irreverence and cheek.
The celebrated actor, comedian, and creator of the hit Netflix film The Merger will combine his storytelling skills and stand-up knack to pull back the curtain on his own tour stories.
At the same time, he examines the quirks, traditions, and characters of Australian halls and meeting places.
In this particular show, Mr Callinan will also spend time with the local community to delve into the history and characters of the Little River Mechanics Institute Hall, and the role that it plays in the broader community.
As well as the show, he will later deliver a podcast to document the story of the Little River Mechanics Institute Hall.
There is barely a bakery in regional Australia that hasn’t had one of Damian Callinan’s show posters blu-tacked to its window– and it will be him at his absolute peak in what you could call a comfort zone.
Hall Stories is Callinan doing what he does best, where he does it best.
He knows how to talk over a bubbling urn; wind up when the Country Women’s Association heads into the supper room, and stack the chairs in fives at the end of the night.
This gig is better for mature audiences as it may contain coarse language and adult themes.
The show starts at 7.30pm on, you guessed it 14 February, and runs for 90 minutes with no interval.
