Auditions for Dial M for Murder

Tempo Theatre is pleased to announce that auditions for our next play: Dial M for Murder by Frederick Knott will be held on March 7th at Belconnen Community Centre.

The ever-so-charming Tony Wendice has his eye on the prize. The prize in question? His wife Margot's eye-wateringly enormous inheritance.
