Kate Peters and Tony Magee

Kate Peters returns to Queanbeyan’s School of Arts Cafe on January 29, with her evening of comedy and song. She will again be accompanied by associate artist Tony Magee, who established an enviable reputation as an outstanding cocktail pianist and rapidly became one of Canberra's most sought-after and accomplished accompanists.

He has previously appeared at the cafe with Gery Scott in her Noel Coward program, with Trish and Doug Williams in Farce Meets Class and with Wendy Ann Hart. On New Year's Eve he ended a packed season with the Bull 'n' Bush Christmas Party, one of the few Cafe shows to run each week from Wednesday to Saturday.

Magee will appear with Judy Burnett and David Cox in From Pakistan With Love for Sunday evening shows on January 12 and 19, which kick off the 1992 season.

David Cox, a diplomat when not on stage, last appeared in Canberra in Rep's Bicentennial Music Hall. In the same year he played in Rep's production of Coward's Present Laughter.
