In 2016, Noni Hazlehurst, beloved star of stage and screen, mesmerised Wollongong in Mother. Now, she makes a welcome return to our stage in The Lark, the acclaimed new work from the same creative team of writer, Daniel Keene and director, Matt Scholten.

Rose Grey is saying her final goodbye to The Lark, a small inner-city pub in Melbourne. It’s been closed for six months and will be demolished as the suburb gentrifies. But for Rose, now in her seventies, this derelict building is her whole life.

She’s lived here since she was a child, finally taking over from her father as he grew old. Her memories, both bitter and sweet, bind her to The Lark. Trapped in the past, she fears that The Lark might hold her forever in suspension. Now she wants to escape from this cycle of endless return and wrench herself free.
