Gerture and Abalone, orphaned by a freak pruning accident, have retreated into a world of their own fashioning where reality is what they make it. Abalone’s dream is to win the local Eisteddfod with their production of Macbeth - first prize, a one way ticket to Moscow. Gerture pines for her lost love Ian. But try as they might, their lives are inescapably entwined.
Skipping from erotic games to bleak prophecy and hilarious mischief, The Eisteddfod stalks a fleet-footed course down uncharted corridors of the psyche, always one step ahead of your expectations.
Written by the prodigiously talented Lally Katz The Eisteddfod has received numerous awards. Delight in this production created by an exciting young team of up and coming Canberra artists.
"It’s stunning in almost every aspect. Magical. Memorable. And mighty real."
