Rogues Double Bill - Gravity Guts with Ginger. Black. Brunette. Blonde.
 

An indy theatre double feature! the hit Sydney Fringe play Gravity Guts is moving into the new FringHQ - Level Up! theatre hub in an exciting double bill with the world premiere of Peter Maple’s Ginger. Black. Brunette. Blonde. 

In Gravity Guts we meet Sophia. She’s into science, sci-fi and Sigourney Weaver. She’s not sure why, but at least it’s something she can talk to her dad about, even when he’s a bottle in. She’s trying to understand a lot - growing up, her dad, and the complexities of the universe. Gravity Guts is a joyful and smartly woven story that attempts to explore the big ideas that have eluded womankind since the beginning of the universe: like how do you survive growing up? What happens inside a black hole? How do you find your voice in a vacuum?

And in Ginger. Black. Brunette. Blonde. We’re invited into the mind of Sarah, a woman trapped by the memories of a mother she barely got to know, treading water in her daily life and hoping to break free from the grip of love. Ginger. Black. Brunette. Blonde. Attempts to investigate the power of love and memory, and the very real danger their effects can have on us all when fuelled by grief. 

Two award-winning playwrights, two very different new Australian works, and an incredible cast of female performers led by Emily McKnight starring as both Sophia and Sarah. It’s an unmissable night of entertainment in Sydney’s new home of independent theatre, FringeHQ.

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.

    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
