The Lucky Country
Monday 29 May 2023 to Saturday 17 June 2023
Overview
Digging deep into the themes of identity and belonging, The Lucky Country is heart-felt, wildly entertaining and a playful celebration of a new vision of Australians.
Meet Boy, a 13-year-old Thitharr Warra boy, whose youthful optimism is dashed when he clashes with his classmates' notion of ‘our shared history’. It sparks a journey of self-actualisation that leads him back to Country and a moment of truth.
Meet a collection of all-Aussie characters including: grey nomads who find love crashing a Contiki tour, a Chinese Australian restauranteur who dreams of life as a Byron Bay nudist, a young refugee in Mingoola, a WW2 veteran, an aspiring actress an all fake-Russian choir…and more!
With Music and Lyrics by Vidya Makan (Six, Merrily We Roll Along) in collaboration with acclaimed Director Sonya Suares, The Lucky Country gives a voice to those typically marginalised in the collective conversations about Australian identity and history.
Be the first to experience a joyful and uplifting musical journey exploring what it means to be 'Aussie'.
