Why is Canberra always so cold? Why so many roundabouts?
And those public servants… everywhere?

Two evil geniuses, Syd and Mel, have been plotting against Canberra for decades trying to destroy the nation’s capital to get what they want.
Now it seems a local Girl Guide unit may have stumbled across Syd and Mel's grand centenary plan to destroy Canberra once and for all.

Watch as the Guides team up to foil Syd and Mel's plans and save Canberra. Will they stop the evil villains and save the day? Will Canberra finally get to celebrate and show off all it has to offer? Or will Syd and Mel succeed and reduce Canberra to a never-ending land of roadwork’s and acronyms?

Make sure you're in the audience to find out! 

Showing at Tim Murray Theatre!
