WHOOP theatre

WHOOP theatre is based in Griffith, NSW, and local theatre creative Melanie Toscan has developed the school holiday workshops. Melanie has been performing on stage from an early age. She has performed many roles locally ranging from the explosive ‘Tybolt’ in ‘Romeo and Juliet’ to the tenacious cheerleader ‘Serena’ in ‘Legally Blonde The Musical'. In more recent times Melanie has been playing the roles of producer and visual designer for local productions. In 2019 she was nominated for a Canberra Area Theatre Award (CAT award) for Best Leading Actress in a Play for her role as ‘Hermia’ in the Griffith and Regional Association of the Performing Arts (GRAPA) ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’.
