Wyong Drama Group postpones opening of Birthrights show

Birthrights cast

Wyong Drama Group has been forced to cancel its Birthrights show at the Red Tree Theatre for a fourth time after a cast member tested positive to COVID.

The show was due to start February 18 but the opening has now been postponed to a matinee performance on February 23.

The group has added an extra performance on Sunday February 27 at 11am.

Birthrights was scheduled to open at the Red Tree in early August 2021 but the extended lockdown saw it postponed three times (requiring replacement of the lead role) until February 2022.

WDG celebrates its 70th anniversary this year having staged approximately 300 productions in that time.

Opening night for each 2022 productions will be a gala night which includes a free drink and canapes for patrons prior to curtain up.
