Theatre Works: Savages
10 September @ 7:30 pm - 8:50 pm AEST

Four friends. One holiday of a lifetime. What begins as celebration spirals into chaos — laughter turns to violence, loyalty twists into cruelty, and the pack takes control. SAVAGES by the legendary Patricia Cornelius is a bold, brutally honest descent into the dark heart of masculinity and mateship gone wrong.
Under the electric direction of Kitan Petkovski (The Inheritance), four women embody the roles of “ordinary Aussie blokes,” subverting gender norms and exposing the toxic undercurrent of power and privilege. Unflinching, physical, and politically fierce, SAVAGES crashes through the surface of good times to reveal what festers beneath. Welcome aboard!
