What's On

Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of)
 

Direct from its triumph in London’s West End, where it won the Olivier Award for Best Comedy, this unique and audacious retelling of Jane Austen’s most iconic love story, Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) comes to Wollongong!

Men, money and microphones will be fought over in this irreverent but affectionate adaptation where the romance stakes couldn’t be higher.

Lizzie and Jane may have found their match, but now the story is in the hands of the servants of Longbourne!

You might have seen them before, emptying the chamber pots and sweeping ash from the grate — the overlooked and the undervalued making sure those above stairs find their happy ending. Of course, these women have always been running the show — after all, “You can’t have a whirlwind romance without clean bedding” — but now the servants are also playing every part. Let the ruthless match-making begin!

Full of massive pop-hits, this karaoke-fuelled and raucous night out comes to Wollongong as five fearless performers bring Austen’s world to life with heart, humour and unstoppable energy.

    Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
    To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.

    Uked! | Bondi Theatre Company
    Uked! is a sing along, string along, immersive jukebox musical, that's more folksy balladeering than an all out, all that jazz razzmatazz.

    Doubt | Sydney Theatre Company
    Contradiction, conundrum, conflict, racism, misogyny and homophobia run through this play like a main circuit cable snaking through a moral minefield of explosive allegation.

    Noni Hazlehurst brings Rose and The Lark to colourful and compelling life in this one-woman show.
  • The Can Principle | Jonny Pasvolsky
    The Can Principle | Jonny Pasvolsky
    Following the unedifying edict that "there's a sucker born every minute", the show skewers the modern self-improvement economy in a piss-take parody of today's 'gurus' and snake-oil salesmen.
