SUMMARY:Circle Mirror Transformation
DESCRIPTION:In a modest\, small-town community hall\, five people – mostly strangers – come together to take part in an amateur acting class. The class is run by Marty (Gibney)\, a well-meaning\, passionate and provocative teacher who leads the group in a series of drama games. She intends to get them in touch with their inner selves and let their imaginations run free. But as the exercises build in intensity and their lives become further intertwined\, real-life drama begins to seep into the curriculum.

SUMMARY:Coriolanus
DESCRIPTION:One of Shakespeare’s most exhilarating works\, Coriolanus is a gripping portrait of a tyrannical mind in the first years of the Roman Republic. \nCoriolanus is a ferocious warrior and defender of Rome. But his contempt for the public\, and his refusal to play the political game\, see him banished from the city he once protected. \nWhen he joins forces with his former enemy to seek vengeance against Rome\, the fate of the city\, and of Coriolanus himself\, hangs in the balance.

SUMMARY:The Half Life of Marie Curie
DESCRIPTION:AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE \nWhen two Nobel Prizes prove inadequate armour against a scandalous affair\, Marie Curie turns to fellow scientist and trusted confidant Hertha Ayrton for literal and emotional sanctuary. Together they weather the storm of heartbreak\, public scrutiny\, and self-doubt. \nWritten with heart and humour\, Lauren Gunderson — America’s most-produced living playwright — perfectly captures the resilience and determination that define true pioneers. \nDespite tremendous personal and professional obstacles\, two remarkable women continued to devote their lives to scientific innovation and social change. At its core\, THE HALF-LIFE OF MARIE CURIE radiates the enduring power of female friendship.

SUMMARY:Art From Behind The Wire
DESCRIPTION:Art From Behind the Wire is a new exhibition featuring posters\, magazines and other printed material created by Second World War prisoners of war\, including Major John Champion de Crespigny. \nJohn was among thousands of Australians made prisoners by the Japanese in the early months of 1942. Captivity at the hands of the Japanese is remembered for merciless brutality however the initial experience in some camps was not harsh. To maintain the morale of the inmates\, Champion de Crespigny and others made posters and produced a magazine\, Mark Time\, during their time as POWs in Java. \nThis extraordinary collection offers a glimpse into the uncertainties of life as captives of a cruel and unpredictable enemy. \nThe exhibition also includes four sketches of the Japanese war crimes trials held on Morotai in December 1945\, drawn by Signalman Alex King\, a talented professional newspaper artist. King served with the Australian Corps of Signals and was able to observe some of the trials firsthand. \nThese unique original sketches capture the moment when Japanese soldiers attended makeshift courts sitting in the witness chair. They offer a rare insight into both the trial process and the individuals accused of war crimes.

Nicola has put her faith in a shady alternative cancer clinic\, and Helen is determined to be her brilliant friend and carer no matter what. But as the sleepless nights rack up\, a short stay in the spare room becomes a loving\, maddening battle for life. \nHelen Garner’s novel has been praised for its empathy\, emotional honesty\, hawk-eyed detail and perfect prose.

SUMMARY:Eureka Day
DESCRIPTION:Screamingly funny and wildly topical\, Eureka Day lasers in on the poverty of modern discourse and our inability to listen to those with whom we disagree. \nIt’s 2019 and Eureka Day\, a private primary school in Berkeley\, California\, is a bastion of progressive ideals: representation\, gender identity\, social justice. The parents on the Executive Committee value inclusion above all else – until a mumps outbreak forces a rethink of the school’s liberal vaccine policy. As cases rise and polite debate descends into ideological warfare\, the school leadership are forced to confront one of our era’s defining questions: How do you build consensus\, when no one can agree on the facts?

SUMMARY:Happy Days
DESCRIPTION:Somewhere in a dreamlike wasteland\, Winnie is buried up to her waist in a mound of earth. The sun beats down on her\, relentlessly. She is unable to see her husband Willie (a man of few words)\, who she chatters to and prompts for affection and approval. Undaunted\, she continues to celebrate each happy day. \nWritten in the poetic\, distilled and brilliant style that crowned Beckett the greatest dramatist of his day\, Happy Days is a play about the power of the human spirit when faced with impossible circumstances. In the hands of two legends of Australian theatre-making\, this new production will plumb the original depths of Beckett’s script while exploring the play’s haunting and inspiring contemporary resonances. Happy Days is a grand night of theatre that no one will want to miss.

SUMMARY:The Lover & The Dumb Waiter
DESCRIPTION:THE LOVER\nTrapped in the monotony of middle-class life\, Richard and Sarah’s marriage is on its last legs. Perhaps a lover could reignite their corroding relationship… or is escape from their stifling existence just a fantasy? \nBurning with intrigue and uneasy humour\, Harold Pinter spins a dangerous game of cat and mouse in this steamy psychological drama. \nTHE DUMB WAITER\nBen and Gus have a job to do. As they await instructions\, their silence is disturbed by the rattle of a dumb waiter delivering peculiar food orders. Who is making demands for extravagant dishes when all the two men have is a packet of crisps? \nAs the intensity builds in Pinter’s comedy of claustrophobia\, Ben and Gus begin to question everything… and so will you.

SUMMARY:Songs of First Desire
DESCRIPTION:This is a superb new play of passion\, history and politics\, intimate in its detail and epic in its storytelling. \nCamelia is losing her grip\, lost between the past and the present as she passes her days in the garden of her Madrid home. Her children employ Alejandro\, a Colombian migrant\, to look after her. But this house isn’t what it seems\, keeping the terrible secrets of history in its stones. As Alejandro’s presence begins to unlock the past\, it shakes a family that has buried its pain – and its country’s – for too long. \nThis is a dazzling piece of writing. Set in 1968 and the present\, it unpicks the instincts that drive individuals and whole societies towards fear and violence – and perhaps\, also\, reconciliation.

SUMMARY:Aria
DESCRIPTION:WORLD PREMIERE\nA symphony of discord unfolds at Monique’s annual family gathering\, celebrating her three beloved sons’ birthdays. While Monique’s adoration for her boys knows no bounds\, disdain for their wives is palpable. \nFestivities crescendo and Monique takes the spotlight with a performance of a renowned opera aria\, a poignant reminder of the dreams she sacrificed to raise her brood. In her mind\, she was destined for the illustrious stages of La Scala\, the Met and Covent Garden. \nBut beneath the facade of familial harmony\, dissonance brews. Have the long-suffering wives reached their boiling point? David Williamson’s ARIA is a darkly comedic exploration of the intricate dynamics and rivalry inherent within every family.

SUMMARY:Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:Experience Frankenstein\, an extraordinary tale of creation and humanity\, retold in a large-scale theatrical event. \nVictor Frankenstein\, a grieving but brilliantly ambitious young scientist\, pushes the boundaries of theory and morality to create a living being from the remains of the dead. But playing God has its consequences… \nShunned by society and plagued by an inherited sense of confusion and rage\, Victor’s miracle of science becomes a monster that threatens to destroy everything his creator holds dear. \nCombining cutting edge production elements with the power of virtuosic storytelling\, Frankenstein is a night of thrilling theatre of monstrous proportions – bringing Mary Shelley’s classic screaming into the 21st century.

SUMMARY:In A Nutshell:  The Poetry of Violence
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are new to Shakespeare\, or an aficionado\, you will be entertained\, enriched\, and inspired by this production. \nWhen Shakespeare explores violence it is often epic and cruel\, but never gratuitous. Whether it’s Brutus considering a justification for murder in Julius Caesar\, or Volumnia relishing the bravery and brutality of her warrior son in Coriolanus\, Shakespeare asks questions about our relationship with violence. But he also uses the word to describe the limits of emotion\, and the rashness provoked by love and hate.
