Editor's Choice Event Series Into The Shimmering World

Sydney Theatre Company: Into The Shimmering World

Wharf 1 Theatre Sydney, NSW, Australia
Angus Cerini’s new play follows in the footsteps of his gothic dramas The Bleeding Tree and Wonnangatta, both of which used a visceral, poetic language, while plugging into Australia’s complex relationship with the bush. Into the Shimmering World is a quieter, more contemplative piece. Colin Friels and Kerry Armstrong give moving…
Event Series Peacemongers by The People

Darebin Arts: Peacemongers by The People

Event Series Ink

New Theatre: Ink

New Theatre 542 King St, Newtown, NSW
They called him ‘The Dirty Digger’. In 1969, freshly-landed in London’s Fleet St, bursting with ambition and a colonial’s desire to shaft the British establishment, he took ownership of a flagging daily newspaper and turned it into a media phenomenon. His name was Rupert Murdoch. The paper was The Sun. …
Editor's Choice Event Series The Great Divide

Ensemble Theatre: The Great Divide

Ensemble Theatre Sydney, NSW, Australia
David Williamson may not always please the critics, but he has a hugely loyal audience. His latest comedy, The Great Divide, now playing at Sydney’s Ensemble Theatre, addresses wealth inequality and human greed. Penny Poulter lives in the delightful, quiet town of Wallis Heads.
