Our Country’s Good

Australia, 1789. A young lieutenant is directing rehearsals for the first play ever to be staged in that country – with only two copies of text, a cast of convicts and one leading lady about to be hanged…

Inventive, occasionally harrowing, and ultimately uplifting, this play raises timeless questions about what makes for a country’s good: the principles of justice and punishment, the value of culture and the redemptive power of theatre itself.

There will be a Signed Performance on the Wednesday evening and a Relaxed Performance for the Saturday matinee.
