7 - 16 November

TICKETS

The Whale tells the story of a 600-pound obese English teacher who hides from the world.ย  Charlie cannot stop eating to the detriment of everyone around him, including his daughter.

Desperate to reconnect with this long-estranged daughter, he reaches out to her, only to find a viciously sharp-tongued and wildly unhappy teen.

Big-hearted and fiercely funny, The Whale is the story of a manโ€™s last chance at redemption, and of finding beauty in the most unexpected places.

The 2022 Academy Award winning movie (starring Brendan Fraser) was adapted from Hunter's play.

Ollie is searching for her sister, and all roads lead to Pomona: an abandoned concrete island at the heart of the city. But as others have learned the hard way, getting involved can cost you everything. Perhaps to survive, itโ€™s better to ignore the truth.
ย 

Pomona is a dark, intense and curious one act play about living in the modern world. It unfolds like a puzzle, flirts with the fantastical, and twists like a nightmare.

The play was first performed in London in 2014. This will be its South Australian premiere.

Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike by Christopher Durang is a hilarious and poignant comedy that playfully riffs on themes and characters from the works of Anton Chekhov.
It won the Tony Award for Best Play in 2013 starring Sigourney Weaver, David Hyde Pierce and Billy Magnussen.

This will be the South Australian premiere production.

This production will present the Shakespeare comedy using the language from the First Folio but resetting the time and place to a 21st century Adelaide suburb, leaning into reality television. Itโ€™s a story to challenge preconceptions of gender, culture, class and influence โ€“ but always to entertain.
