SEX, GOD AND RED TAPE

An Australian Drama Showcase

Bringing together the themes considered “taboo” at the dinner party table - Sex, Religion and Politics - Jacaranda Theatre delivers a rehearsed reading showcase of Australia’s most acclaimed, bold and innovative playwrights with a selection of plays which expose Australia’s exciting, immensely challenging and sometimes disturbing underbelly.

Performed at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts over six nights, this cutting edge contribution debunks the myths of Australia’s constant sunshine culture of “Surf, Sand and Soaps”.

Europe, by Michael Gow, Finborough Theatre

 europe poster

Europe tells the story of Douglas, a young Australian who travels to Europe in search of Barbara, a European actress with whom he fell in love when she toured to Australia.

In doing so it engages and draws its audience into a world where each character comes to represent something much more than themselves, transforming a very human story into a dramatic metaphor for history.
