The Elocution of Benjamin Franklin
21 – 25 Feb | Griffin
Griffin Theatre Company is giving away 5 x double passes to their upcoming production of steve j. spears's The Elocution of Benjamin Franklin.
A landmark work of Australian theatre returns to the stage where it first sprang to inglorious life. steve j. spears’s The Elocution of Benjamin Franklin scandalised and mesmerised in equal measure when it premiered in 1976—touring across the world and collecting awards everywhere it ventured. Now, on its 50th anniversary, Simon Burke takes on the towering role that Gordon Chater made infamous.
 
Enter via this form to go in the running to win an exclusive double pass to one of the preview performances on 21–25 February.

Monster
Presented by Tiny Dog Productions, in association with bAKEHOUSE Theatre Co

Monster is a gripping exploration of empathy, responsibility, and the systems that shape violence in boys and men. Tom, a teacher, is tasked with working with Darryl, a troubled teenage boy on the brink of permanent expulsion. When they're left alone in a classroom, a tense battle of wills unfolds, with impacts rippling through family, school and community. How do you reach a child who appears afraid of nothing and cares for no one?
