About the event
Mates Theatre Genesis is celebrating Queensland Seniors Month with a double dose of laughter, mischief and mayhem. Seniors Perform-Codgers & Crooks hits the stage at the Donald Simpson Centre, Cleveland on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th October.
Audiences will be treated to two hilarious one-act plays performed by an all-senior cast who prove that creativity, humour and performance have no age limit.
Both plays have been written by Redland locals.
CODGER’S COTTAGE by Suzsi Mandeville
In a run-down nursing home, life takes a chaotic turn when a well-meaning nurse accidentally muddles up the medications. The result? Outrageous consequences, unexpected revelations and plenty of laughs.

Lady Sprout and her daughter, Orchid have their sights set on a prize winning entry for the Annual Garden Show, but the dastardly wicked Mr Syde is determined to ruin their plans. Enter Derek Dibblestick, the “humble gardener” who may just dig up the courage to save the day.

Join us this Seniors Month for an afternoon of light-hearted theatre where the laughs are big, the mischief is cheeky, and the performers prove you’re never too old to act!
