Caravan

By Donald McDonald
Directed by Joy Sweeney

Three couples, two weeks and one caravan! The Robinsons love their annual summer holiday, living the Aussie dream by the beach in their luxury caravan but this year they have invited their best friends, all nudging forty and hating it. To make matters worse, Pierce insists on bringing his new, all-too-young girlfriend. In the confined space of a caravan tensions rise and the laughs begin. Donald MacDonald’s comedy Caravan takes a light-hearted look at friendship, age and the holiday you should never take.

Alfred Deakin is afraid of the dark

By Carla Moore
Directed by Carla Moore

This original and lively interpretation deals with Australia’s most surprising Prime Minister Alfred Deakin who stood comfortable in the same social democratic tradition as the Australian Labour Party, yet was also the Father of the modern Liberal Party. Deakin was a man surrounded by women who adored him; a man who believe in Ouija boards and mediums, yet ironically was afraid of the dark, a man who wrote poetry to his wife, yet was the architect of the White Australia Policy. This play questions ‘is Australia fair?’ and warns that ‘those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.’

Influence

by David Williamson

Not surprisingly, Ziggi’s home is a war zone. His young, second wife Carmela is struggling to re-establish her ballet career after having a baby. his daughter Vivienne has run away from her mother to live with them and his father, deeply depressed according to Ziggi’s sister Connie, also comes to stay. A scathing and bitingly funny play about he media personalities that dominate our lives and the divisions that can shatter families.
