Comedy Capers Gang Show is a non profit performing arts group proudly associated as part of Scouts Australia (SA Branch) and is currently in its 47th consecutive year of production.

Our group is a pioneer of Northern area theatrical variety show offering live music, singing, acting and dance performed by the youth members of Scouts Australia (SA Branch) and Girl Guides SA. Our mission is to promote the aims, principals, goals and values of scouting through the arts.

“The aim of Scouting is to encourage the physical, intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual development of young people so that they take a constructive place in society as responsible citizens, and as a member of their local, national and international communities.”

The show is produced and directed by a group of volunteer adult members from each of the participating associations and performed over a two week period after a fifteen week rehearsal schedule. The show is supported by an additional compliment of some one hundred and forty volunteers fulfilling such positions of band, technical, set construction and administrative roles.

The show uses an assortment of original and commercial music played by our live band along with sketch and dialogue written by other participating national shows and also within our own members.

 

Our House

Welcome to the 2012 season of Comedy Capers Gang Show.
2012 is going to be a fantastic season for us.  Our theme this year is ‘Our House’. With 109 Scouts and Guides on stage, and over 140 crew members behind the scenes, it is shaping up to be an awesome show.  The whole Gang is working hard to bring the show "OUR HOUSE" to life.

During the performance the Cast and Crew will take you through many different styles of rooms in a variety of houses.  We open our curtain to a street scene of these houses and we sing ‘Are You Ready’ and ‘Our House’.  The journey begins and we continue on through various rooms as the cast all sing, dance and act their hearts out.

This year’s show has many highlights, including our shufflin’ rubber ducks in the bathroom, jumping on the bed to the song ‘Jump’ in the bedroom, and groovin’ in the garden with our gorgeous little bugs and bees, as they sing ‘Bee My Baby’.  We are doing the ‘Time Warp’ in the home movie room, Brides and Grooms will be partnering up for the song ‘Marry You’ and watch as the ballet dolls come to life and dance to ‘Crackernut’.
Our fabulous Cast end the show with a high energy, fast paced finale, performing the song ‘Jumpstart’ as our final bow.
If you were a part of our audience last year we thank you and trust that you enjoyed the performance, and we hope to see you again this year.  If you missed our show last year the Cast and Crew would love to have you and your group as members of our audience this year.  Scout & Guiding groups, why not take advantage of the great ticketing prices offered to you!
