We simply cannot stop expressing our gratitude to our magnificent season sponsors for 2023! Thank you so much to the GFG Alliance Community Support and Sponsorship Program for assisting us to stage our 2023 Major Musical. There are many costs associated with staging our productions, with specialist support required to build and create our sets, props and costumes, hire our venues, our licensing and advertising, insurances and the list goes on. Without your support, our 100% volunteer run and led organisation would not have the means to continue to bring our high-quality theatrical productions to Whyalla. So we are super grateful when we have the support of our sponsors such as GFG Alliance, to allow us to offset some of those expenses so that we can keep our ticket pricing down for you, our valued audiences. Stay tuned for imminent updates on our 2023 Major Musical.

The Whyalla Players express our sincere gratitude to @whyallacitycouncil for their continued support of our Community Theatre organisation through various means including their fabulous Community Grant program! We are honoured to be a recent recipient which will enable us to deliver a spectacular major musical at the MAC! As an organisation that is 100% volunteer run and led, with no ongoing funding, we rely on the generous support of our sponsors such as Whyalla City Council to be able to bring our high-quality theatrical productions to Whyalla. Although we have many talented and enthusiastic performers and backstage crew, we would not be able to perform without the financial support needed to provide our amazing sets, props and costumes.

"I'm not superstitious, the mother said" June 3rd, 4th, 9th, 10th - 7:30pm https://www.eventbrite.com/e/blood-brothers-tickets-599300222097 Presented by Whyalla Players Inc., Willy Russell’s smash hit musical Blood Brothers is the hilarious, provocative and heartbreaking show that tells the unforgettable story of the Johnstone twins. Mrs Johnstone, deserted by her husband and with a houseful of kids to feed, finds she is expecting twins, whom she cannot possibly afford to keep. She cleans for the childless Mrs Lyons who, learning of her plight, begs one of her twins from her at birth. The two boys grow up streets apart, never learning the truth but becoming firm friends (and in love with the same girl) despite their differing backgrounds and the attempts of Mrs Lyons to keep them apart. Mickey Johnstone loses his job, marries the girl, turns to crime and becomes dependent on tranquilisers. Edward Lyons prospers, goes to university and turns Councillor. But the Narrator, intruding like “Fate”, warns that a “price has to be paid” – the final fulfilment of the prophecy/superstition that twins parted at birth will die on the day they find out their heritage. Director: Tina Wagner; Choreographer: Jai Golding; Vocal Director: Alexander Ian.R; Producer: Steve Coles; Music Director: Chris West; Repetiteur: Peter Brown Featuring: Rachel Hopkin, Tracey Warncken, Alexander Ian.R, Adam Smith, Logan Wagner, Samuel Mills, Caitlyn Utting, Jack Smith, Helen Coles, Jackie Golding, Nathan Grund, Natoma Harris, Chris Scanlon, Kieron Scanlon. * TWO ACT MUSICAL THEATRE PERFORMANCE WITH LIVE BAND * Doors open 6:45pm. Patrons to be seated by 7:25pm. Performance commences 7:30pm. Lockout period applies for patrons arriving after 7:25pm until suitable gap in performance. BLOOD BROTHERS - Book, Music and Lyrics by WILLY RUSSELL.
