REMINDER: Production Ticket Sales 2023
Dear Murrumbeena PS Families,
Tickets to the upcoming whole school Production of “Shrek Jr” with the Prep - Year 3 showcase “Once Upon a Time in Murrumbeena” are now on sale. If you have not already purchased your 1-2 tickets, please do so. On Monday 7th August (less than 1 week) tickets will go on general sale. General sale means families can go back and buy extra tickets. We do expect the event to sell out, SO PLEASE PURCHASE YOUR 1-2 TICKETS BEFORE MONDAY 7TH AUGUST. We do not want anyone to miss out.
All tickets are $35. As per the theatre regulations, children under 2 are free but must sit on a lap.
Every family (not student) may purchase up to 2 tickets per family initially. This is to ensure all families get tickets.
Note: Murrumbeena students who are performing DO NOT need a ticket
While we do understand that many families would like to purchase more tickets, our priority is to ensure all families have an opportunity to purchase at least 2 tickets. We don’t want any family missing out. We appreciate your support on this. The production will be professionally filmed, with DVDs and USBs available to purchase.
Tickets are sold through the theatre box office. Please follow the link below to purchase.

Which seats should I choose when purchasing tickets?
Robert Blackwood Hall is a beautiful theatre and every seat has a great view of the stage. However, some classes perform more towards one side of the stage and therefore you may wish to purchase tickets that are on the same side as your children. Below is a guide to help you when selecting tickets. Again, all seats have a great view of the stage this is just a guide.
When sitting in the audience facing the stage, these classes are towards the left side of the theatre: Prep G, Prep Q, 1A, 1P, 2B, 2N, 3M, 4F, 5V 5C, 6K
When sitting in the audience facing the stage, these classes are toward the right side of the theatre: Prep M, Prep B, 1N, 1L, 2R, 2M, 3H, 4W, 5P, 6C, 6J
When sitting in the audience facing the stage, these classes are towards the centre of the theatre: Prep S, 3L, 4L
More information regarding the dress rehearsal and performance will be coming soon.
Kind regards,
