The 2019
Season

Watch the trailer

Welcome

A huge thanks to all of you who joined us in 2018 – what a spectacular year of theatre. We’ve enjoyed rich conversations with you about things that matter and we’ve just begun.

Where the Heart Is is about family, and in particular, the myriad of Australian families. It’s a collection of characters and stories that explore belonging. It asks us what it means to be a citizen and belong to a community. We have classic plays and contemporary work, old tales told anew and some of the best, freshest voices that Australian theatre boasts today.

Our 2019 season is a celebration of female writers. It is a celebration of brilliant local talent. It is inclusive and diverse. It is fresh, funny and pertinent. Once again, we will have a dinner event, play readings, panel discussions and a dance party. We invite you to join us for another year of spirited and moving nights in the theatre.

As we curated our season for the stage, I realised the synergy with the artwork of Joanna Lamb. The houses that she depicts are homes; they suggest character and story. They are familiar to us and breed nostalgia. In their familiarity, they make us feel a sense of belonging. A huge thank you to Joanna for collaborating with us on our 2019 season brochure.

It takes a team to bring together a season, so my thanks go to the wonderful team at Black Swan, our Board of Directors and to Natalie Jenkins. We live and work on the land of the Wadjuk Noongar people and we are honoured to be sharing stories where stories have been told for multi millennia.

We look forward to a year full of big ideas, huge talents and fun.
