Geocache Description:

Prelude
An amateur theatre group 'Towers Players' formed in 1962 and celebrate their 50th anniversary in September 2012 when this cache was placed. This group puts on plays, musicals and other performances in Charters Towers, often at the 2 locations visited in this multi cache.

Act 1
The first location is a complex with a 660 seat theatre (Mt Leyshon Auditorium), independent twin cinema, restaurant, art displays and gift shop; all housed in a building dating back to the 1890's. Over the past decade or two the theatre has seen all manner of visiting acts, eisteddfods, concerts and musicals by Towers Players. If the front door is closed, you may still 'Be our guest' (of the town) with the entry to the cinema and displays behind the restaurant.
 
Whether you've got 'A home amongst the gum trees', 'Just blew in from the windy city' or 'Leavin' on a jet plane' you've arrived on the scene with the world at your FEET
You could bank on activity here since 1ABC. You could catch a show here since 199D.
for the second act you will also need to know;
E=A-C
F=D-C
G=A-F
There is an interval of about 425 m between the 'acts', but no need for the speed of  'Greased Lightnin'

Act 2
A second theatrical location is now known a Playhouse but was originally a Church of England Building. The Church and Rectory were constructed in 1875 and formally opened in 1883; functioning as an Anglican Church until 1965. Towers Players have been performing at the playhouse since 1969.
 
For act 2 you are directed to S 20 04.EBF, 146 15.GCG
The cache is a magnetic micro. You'll need to bring a pen. It was placed with permission of the 'Master of the House' himself and can be reached from the grass verge.
