We are thrilled to be partnering with Brisbane Festival and Queensland Performing Arts Centre to bring this extraordinary production to Brisbane this September. The response from audiences and critics has been phenomenal, and we can’t wait for Brisbane audiences to experience this glorious production featuring one of the finest casts ever to be assembled on the Lyric Theatre stage – this will be one of the major theatrical events of 2022.

Following the outstanding success of Boy Swallows Universe in 2021, I was keen to present another large-scale theatre work for Brisbane Festival 2022. I am thrilled to be partnering with QPAC, GWB Entertainment and Damien Hewitt to present this internationally acclaimed production this year. At times achingly beautiful and at others starkly haunting, I know our Festival audiences will embrace this award-winning production.

We know audiences have come to expect a world-class program from Brisbane Festival and this production sits amongst the very best,” Mr Kotzas said. “It brings a brilliant cast of stars together with a very real and human story of community and connection, knitted together with Dylan’s poetic musical genius. This season will be a sure-fire hit with Brisbane audiences.
