TROUPE DU JOUR
create songs, stories and sketches on the spot!! The audience suggest the themes and situations for our sketches.
The TROUPE SHOW has been performed before diverse audiences: ranging from corporate boards to nursing associations to schools; from awards nights to product launches, from large to small groups.
We focus on tailoring our shows to suit the client. Whether there is a conference about teamwork, or a function dedicated to having fun, the TROUPE SHOW hits the mark by being funny, interactive and relevant.
Often the show is about their working lives. It may be a crisis involving the coffee or the photocopier. TROUPE will then play out that crisis in the style of a romance or a kung-fu movie!
That's what makes a TROUPE show special: we reflect the experiences of our audiences in a light hearted way. The audience get involved because they suggest the content. Sometimes our audience find their way on-stage and become the real stars of the TROUPE SHOW!
The highlight at the end of the TROUPE SHOW is an improvised musical based on the life of someone special in the audience. After a short interview we perform an improvised Broadway musical based on their life story: where they grew up, school days, first date, first job, etc. Its always a great finale.
So whether you want a TROUPE SHOW after lunch, after dinner or to break up a long day, you'll always find us spontaneous, energetic and surprising.
"They surpassed our expectations! Their involvement with the audience truly broke down the barriers. What a lot of talent!"
Greta White, Hewlett Packard

TRACY BARTRAM
Tracy began performing stand-up comedy in the mid-1980's and is best-known by many until very recently as the host of Melbourne's number one rating FM breakfast program, "Tracy and Matt in the Morning" on Fox FM. Since her departure from FOX, Tracy is now focused on what she loves doing most and that's performing! Tracy has proved to be one of the most powerful voices in Australian radio, however, as a multi-talented performer, the natural progression for Tracy was to write and produce her own shows. This has revealed her diversity as a performer - singer, actor, and comedian - simply an all-round performer who continues to keep her audiences entertained and exploding with laughter!
With her band in tow she performs an eclectic collection of original, cover & jazz songs as only Tracy can, mixing humour with some real vocal dynamics.
Tracy is also a campaigner for animal rights and children's rights - she is an ambassador for Australian's Against Child Abuse. She is also active in women's communities and conducts seminars for stressed out women from all walks of life. |
