565 Coolamon Scenic Dr, Coorabell Friday 21 February 7.30pm Doors, food and drinks from 5pm Entry by DonationPLAN B Comedy - Pathos - Storytelling - Songs Created by Stephen ‘STRETCH’ Teakle with Dave Houston Directed by Dave Houston Performed Stretch Beyond Barry Morgan: The Untold Story of Stephen ‘Stretch’ Teakle in PLAN B Behind the safari suit, dazzling smile, and signature Hammond organ lies a lifetime of incredible stories. In PLAN B, Australian musician Stephen ‘Stretch’ Teakle steps out from behind his beloved alter ego, Barry Morgan, to share a raw and revealing journey through music, comedy, and survival in the entertainment industry. From touring with Warumpi Band to being smashed up by rodeo horses, squatting with rock legends in Copenhagen, and even serenading Bangkok airport officials to get his accordion onto a plane, Stretch has spent decades as a gun for hire—always 20 metres from fame. Along the way, he’s played with Australia’s biggest names, including Paul Kelly, James Reyne, Neil Murray (My Island Home), and Vika & Linda Bull, before TV catapulted Barry Morgan to national stardom. PLAN B is more than just a comedy show—it’s a deeply personal, laugh-out-loud, and sometimes poignant exploration of life before Barry, the whirlwind that followed, and the never-ending chase for Plan A. Stretch masterfully blends storytelling, comedy, and musicianship, sharing stunning original songs, jaw-dropping anecdotes, and multiple instruments in an unforgettable one-man show. Directed by Dave Houston, Artistic Director of Full-On Theatre—a Northern Rivers-based company with an international reputation--PLAN B is an unmissable night of music, laughter, and uniquely Australian storytelling. "There’s never been a Plan B for me," says Stephen. "I’ve been running from it since the first time my dad told me to get a proper job, (and a haircut!)." Even in his years as a stockman on a remote cattle station, music was always there—woven into the dust, the dirt, and the dream. Don’t miss this wild, heartfelt, and hilarious ride through the life of a true Aussie showman. With a little ‘Stretch’ of the truth, of course. |
