TRACK WORKS
 

Train delays have never been this operatic.

All aboard! Prepare to embark on a spectacular musical journey as TRACK WORKS, a breathtaking site-specific pastiche opera, illuminates Sydney’s iconic Mortuary Station from 21 November – 19 December.

Step inside the historic sandstone train station in the heart of Chippendale and become immersed in the story of five commuters grappling with different everyday issues on their delayed journeys home. TRACK WORKS weaves together arias from the world’s greatest operas and arranges them into an original and contemporary story. 

Featuring a stellar ensemble cast of the country’s finest young opera singers, and set against the enchanting architectural backdrop of Mortuary Station, TRACK WORKS is a once-in-a-lifetime experience about the great equalising power of Sydney’s public transport system.

    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
    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.
