Thinner Than Water
 

The Lab Theatre Company presents its new collaboration production of  ‘Thinner Than Water’ written by Melissa Ross. 

‘When their father falls ill, three estranged half-siblings reunite. As the world around them crumbles, they argue with each other and with everyone around them in a desperate struggle to do the right thing and mend their rapidly deteriorating lives. THINNER THAN WATER is a blood-raw, wicked comedy-drama about fighting through the thick and thin of family.’

Fascinated by family dynamics, authenticity of character and the intimacy of live theatre, Tim Williams directs this production of ‘Thinner Than Water’ with a grounded and realistic style of storytelling. 

The official cast bringing these intertwined characters to life are, Katharine Innes, Matthew Elliott, Amy Pollock, Nin Macken, Indigo Parer, Nicole Chapman, Jerome Meyer & Matt Trubiani.

Along with this stellar cast, the team behind the scenes in collaboration with the Lab Theatre Company are Tim Williams, Natalia Nespeca, Amy Pollock & Matthew Elliott.

Get ready to be welcomed into the family, as the cast and crew tell you their version of this story.

    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.

    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.

    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.
