2020 THERRY SUBSCRIPTION
Subscribing to Therry is the equivalent of receiving almost half-price tickets. It's top quality and the best value Adelaide live theatre entertainment., conveniently brought to the stage at The Arts Theatre, 53 Angas Street, Adelaide. Membership entitles you to two tickets (double) or one ticket (single) to three of our four shows (first, third and fourth) and discounts to the June musical (the South Australian premiere of Titanic, the Musical). With the exception of the musical, if you can't attend a show, that voucher is valid to bring guest/s to another. Effectively, membership entitles you to six tickets (three for singles) for three “straight plays” (March, August, November) during 2020. And you can choose if you wish to include the musical in your subscription.
Therry members have access to our exclusive 'permanent seating' service - that is, the same seats for the same performance for each show (for example, first Friday, first Saturday matinee, second Thursday, second Saturday evening etc). If you are a 2019 permanent seater and wish to continue the service, or if you are a new or renewing member wishing to take advantage of the scheme for the first time, please do NOT pay for your subscription through this trybooking service. Please ring Amanda Mon to Fri, 10 am to 5 pm: 8278 1818.
Therry shows are often nominated for and/or win awards (Adelaide Theatre Guide Curtain Call Awards, The Theatre Association of South Australia's Encore Awards and Adelaide Critics Circle Awards).

Twentieth Century Directed by Kerrin White
By Ben Hecht & Charles MacArthur (2004 adaptation by Ken Ludwig). Broadway ballyhoo meets Hollywood hustle! This comedy is set on the luxury train, The Twentieth Century Limited, travelling from Chicago to New York's Grand Central Station. Aboard are egomaniacal theatre producer Oscar Jaffe, desperately in need of a hit show, and his former paramour and protégé, volatile actress Lily Garland, who abandoned him for a Hollywood career. Oscar is determined to sign her for his new show. Lily is just as determined to ignore his advances, professional and personal. Trying to make sense of the chaos are his long-time and long-suffering assistants Webb and O'Malley. Other hilarious characters include George, Lily's lover, Max (another ex-lover and producer) and a religious fanatic escaped from an institution.
