6 reasons why you should take your tweens and teens to see HAMILTON

Hamilton
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you will have heard about the groundbreaking and multi-award winning musical HAMILTON. Created by Lin-Manuel Miranda, HAMILTON is a sung-and-rapped biographical musical that tells a revolutionary story of passion, unstoppable ambition, and the birth of the nation the United States of America.

Hamilton

HAMILTON follows the rise of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton as he fights for honour, love, and his legacy, directing the shape of the new nation in the process. Based on RonChernow’s acclaimed biography and set to a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway, HAMILTON features book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire.

In addition to being highly entertaining, HAMILTON has won 11 Tony Awards, a Grammy®, Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and aspecial citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.

Why you should take your tweens and teens to see HAMILTON

The characters are relatable!

While the thought of the Founding Fathers of the United States brings up images of stodgy old white men, HAMILTON is so innovative in its casting, with non-white actors taking these roles. Not only is this one of the most racially diverse casts you’ll ever see on a stage, they’re also young and passionate, making mistakes, making amends, emotional, angry, in love – all of the whirlwind of emotions that tweens and teens are exploring themselves.

Hamilton

Inspirational messages are abundant

Hamilton himself is such an incredible figure – a man who came from nothing and achieved great things through passion and perseverance. This strong, positive message is just what teens and tweens need to hear at this stage of their lives where they are realizing that not everyone has been born equally and with the same privileges. This story tells them that anyone can do great things, regardless of their circumstances of birth, that with drive and passion they, too, can achieve great things.

The modern, catchy music

This is not an old school musical, even if the subject matter is a few hundred years old. The music is a mix of rap and spoken word with pop and soul – its modern and fresh and super catchy. You’ll have difficulty STOPPING your kids from singing these songs after they hear them once.

Hamilton

The dancing alone will blow them away

The dance choreography in HAMILTON is an incredible blend of hip-hop and street dance with traditional musical theatre style, making the show visually spectacular to watch, as well as encouraging the younger audience members to try some dance moves themselves when they get home.

HAMILTON makes history fun

HAMILTON can be applauded for many groundbreaking achievements, but I think one that parents celebrate the most is that it makes history fun and accessible for kids. Nothing truly sounds duller than the story of America’s Founding Fathers, however this exceptional musical brings historical figures to life in a way that makes them engaging, fun and interesting to the younger audience members. Getting a history lesson and not even realizing it – what a bonus!

Hamilton

Conversation starter between generations

After the show, the magic of Hamilton continues to work itself on the audience. There will be many questions about the characters and the moments in history that are mentioned in the musical, making it a great way to have a conversation with your kids and it be both meaningful and enjoyable.

Hamilton

HAMILTON contains some strong language and is appropriate for ages 8+.
Running time is approx. 2 hours and 50 minutes, including intermission.

Hamilton is now playing at the Lyric Theatre in Sydney for a limited season. Book your tickets here: hamiltonmusical.com.au

Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella & the Power of Choosing Kindness

Cinderella

Immerse yourself in the magic of Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Tony® Award-winning Broadway musical Cinderella at the Lyric Theatre Sydney until the end of January 2023.

Cinderella

Rodgers + Hammerstein’s production of Cinderella was written for television, debuting in 1957 starring Julie Andrews. Premiering in Australia as a collaboration between Lyndon Terracini for Opera Australia and John Frost for Crossroads Live Australia, Cinderella is a stunning production filled with beautiful orchestrations, magnificent costumes and sets, jaw-dropping costume transformations and an extraordinarily talented cast.

Cinderella

Australian audiences will be delighted with the fresh take on the beloved story of “Ella”, a young woman who is transformed from a maid into a princess. The classic moments are all there: the glass slippers, pumpkin, a beautiful masked ball and a fairy godmother – however  the story holds some surprising twists.

Cinderella

Our Cinderella is a spirited young lady, a woman with modern ideals living in a fairytale setting. She not only fights for her own dreams, but forces the prince to open his eyes to the world around him and realise his dreams too. This Cinderella isn’t a damsel in distress who needs saving, she is the one who brings change to the world through her courage and kindness.

Cinderella

The moral at the heart of Cinderella has always been the power of choosing kindness. Our heroine, Ella, is a role model for young girls and boys to practice compassion and forgiveness, to believe in themselves and chase their dreams.

Cinderella

Everything is provided for the experience including goggles, shoe covers and a smock, but I would suggest dressing for mess.

​Kaboo Studios hosts kids parties, celebrations, hens, bucks and corporate functions. I could see it would be a fantastic place to hold events for kids or adults.

Win the Golden Ticket at Mode’s Easter High Tea

Savour a variety of carefully crafted menu that will treat the palate to a truly memorable experience. The three tiers of handcrafted sweets, savouries and scones on the Easter High Tea menu are made 100 percent in-house.

Just for the Easter holidays, kids are invited to take part in decorating their very own chocolate Easter egg, but the sweetest is what’s inside. Pastry Sous Chef Quentin Zerr has created a large chocolate egg that is nestled on top of a fluffy bed of Pariyas Persian fairy floss accompanied by edible chocolate paints for the kids to create a delicious masterpiece.  Once it’s painted, they will quickly want to dive inside to see if they’re a golden ticket winner. Two lucky winners will receive an overnight accommodation in the Family Fun package.  

Served in the relaxed ambience of Mode Kitchen & Bar, High Tea is available Friday through Sunday from 2:00 to 5:00 pm; and the Easter themed high tea is available the weekends of April 8-10 and 15-17, 2022.

Easter at Mode Kitchen & Bar

Executive Restaurant Chef Francesco Mannelli and his talented culinary team have unveiled an extensive menu to appeal to all appetites and preferences with a special set menu dinner on Easter Sunday.

For the set menu, guests will be taken on a culinary journey from the moment they sit down with delectable starters such as Easter duck and pork terrine, quail eggs, pickled baby radish and grilled focaccia to Mode Kitchen & Bar’s favourite wood-roasted zucchini flowers with buffalo ricotta, truffle, fresh peas and sprouts.

For the main course, guests will be impressed by the pan-roasted snapper served with organic spelt, broccoli, cavolo nero and “acqua pazza” or a risotto Acquerello with Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh black truffle.

No meal is complete without the signature frozen Easter pavlova with banana, pineapple, passionfruit and bee pollen – and for those looking for something traditionally Easter, there’s a specially crafted Mode Easter delice with carrot cake, dark chocolate and orange, crafted by French born Pastry Sous Chef Quentin Zerr.
